My dad's visit hasn't been that good. He's been pretty much non-stop talked about some ***** he met online, talking about her and hardly anything or anyone else, he had me do something on his phone and she sent him a text calling him "my king," and it sent a flood of flashbacks from before and while my parents were separated/divorced when my dad said "don't tell your mom about her" (which he did a lot during that time - it's like I'm however old I was then again).
