When I was young I remember my father locking me in a dark little room. He was yelling at some of his employees about how they did something wrong. I didn’t listen much into it as I was very used to it. Instead of hanging out with me he worked and I taught myself dances because I couldn’t leave the room. Mind you I visited from another state and every time the same thing happened. He locked me into a closet as he worked long hours. Finally after a few years my mom some how convinced me to visit. Once the week of visiting him was over (he worked all week). He was.. angry.. He felt like I’d left him alone (from the previous years of not visiting) and how he felt like I didn’t care about our relationship. (This is all happening at the airport parking lot). I told him that I’ve felt this way for YEARS. After he yelled at me for being disrespectful I was crying and I opened the car door and went into the airport ignoring his yells. I went straight to the airport and sobbed. Once I left I saw him in line. He apologized and I said “okay”. Time skip to when I’m back with my mom and I’m telling her my version. She hugged me and said “I’ll support whatever decision you make.” (Whether I want to keep my relationship with him or sever it.) I wanted to sever it so bad but at the same time my little sister lives with my father. I know that if I sever our bonds I’ll never see her again. (This happened with me and my older sister and I felt and knew the sadness of being left alone). She’s given me time to think out my decision. I’m tired of being hurt over and over again but how can I leave him when that means leaving my sister as well? What do I do?
