Strong
Every night, I hear her crying and I pretend it's from outside.
Sharp, painful sobs make their way from her room into mine and I press my ear closer to my pillow, telling myself that it is my neighbour, locked out of her home again in the middle of the night.
She doesn't need my help, she says. She is strong.
* * *
He returns, many, many years later and it is as if all her tears are suddenly forgotten.
What mistakes, they ask.
He is your father. He gave you life.
* * *
He leaves again, of course he does and suddenly, they all disappear.
I don't offer her help this time.
She is strong. She said so herself.
* * *
I meet a man and he makes me so happy that I hate him. And so I find his weaknesses, the darkness within him that he shows to no one but me and I drive it into his heart until he hates me too.
Finally, I feel safe.
I am strong.
