Growing up without a dad sucks!
I was seven when mine
died.
Everybody else gets to spend their time
after school learning how to toss, catch, and
bat at balls with
dad cheering them on. Up and down
my street, classmates and their dads play together...but
not me!
I'm Mike Malone and I wish I had a dad.
I tried to hang on to my memories of him, but I guess my brain isn't smart enough to keep dad's image
locked away in my
long term memory.
Eventually you
accept the cards you were dealt and
get on with the business of living your life. After all, we all have our own things to do in this life.
Adjusting expectations so they don't include a dad you do get used to, and
time moves on.
Tomorrow
I become
a man...
legally. Yeah, I know, technically I've been a man since
dad died. Everyone kept telling me I was now
the man of the house, but tomorrow it happens for
real.
So how come I'm
thinking about my dad
all of a sudden?
What are you supposed
to feel when you are suddenly
dropped a
bombshell on the night of your approaching
manhood? Seems dear old dad is NOT dead after all...
nor is he human.
He's a
fallen angel and he wants to use
ME to help him snare all
heavenly and
demonic power throughout the ENTIRE
universe and beyond for himself.
I'm dreaming right?
I WISH!
Why couldnt' I have had a
"normal' dad? And what do I do
now?
Will Mike Malone heed
the call of his dad, or will he say
"no?" If he says no, what will his father do?
