Another Father's Day. Andrea really hated Father's Day. She hadn't heard from her dad since she blurted out to him that she was a lesbian on Father's Day when she was 16.
She wiped her eyes, trying to dry the fountain that just wouldn't stop. She had been so close to her dad before that day.
"And now he hates me," she muttered to her self.
The phone ringing startled Andrea. She didn't recognize the number. "Hello?"
"Hey, baby girl."
"Daddy?"
"What, no happy Father's Day for your old man?"
"Dad, we haven't spoken in years."
"I know, and I am sorry. It's my fault, and that's why I called. You're my daughter, and I shouldn't shun you regardless of who you may love."
"Dad, I don't know what to say."
"How about happy Father's Day?"
"Dad! You have missed so much over the last several years! You can't make up for that with one pathetic phone call!"
"Andrea, I know. I have been such a horrible father. And I want to make it up to you."
"Well dad, guess what? You can't. You screwed up big time, and you can't fix that!"
She hung up, and the sob storm started again.
