A better man than I was.

I did not see how my secret was hurting my mother, who was still reeling from losing him. I did not see anything besides my own anger, my own desire for revenge on this world for all it had done and taken from us. She fell ill, and within two years, she was gone as well. We had barely been making ends meet. The Resistance did not pay, and I was spending less and less time with my job, even after I had managed to graduate from one of the schools I attended, despite barely going to class anymore.

[ he looks up, as if only realizing he's pouring out so much ] I wish I could be the kind of man my father was.
