My father always had a ready smile and a kind word.When I was little,he took me fishing or to the park.We were close then,and I wanted to grow up to be just like Dad.Then things began to change.I could never find time to stuff with him any more,We used to argue a lot and I knew it was me who usually started it.
Dad tried to talk to me,but it was hard on both of us.I was embarrassed – he had never learned to read and dropped out of school to take a job in a car repair shop.Then he started to behave strangely.He always stayed up late at night,and when I saw him the next morning there would be dark circles around his eyes.One night I found out why.
It was cold so I decided to get another blanket to warm up.Kitchen light was still on and I went to turn it off.Looking around the corner,I saw my father at the kitchen table,with a book in front of him and a pen in his hand.He was reading slowly and quietly.After a while I recognized the words as Dr.Seuss’s “Cat in the Hat”.I bought the book when I was little and had asked my father to read it to me.I remembered how his face turned red as he handed it back to me and said,“Sorry,son.” Now,as I heard the familiar words coming from his lips,I was stunned.
I never mentioned my discovery but I began to have more respect for my father.I often asked him for advice and spent more time with him.
One summer day,I came to find a new car in our garage.“Hope you like it,” my father said.The three words were on the tip of my tongue,but I still could not tell him that I loved him.
