Strike 1. When I was 9, she laughed at my dream of working in advertising. Strike 2. Few weeks ago, I couldn't believe my ears. She mentioned her stupid female relative who got married to a doctor and then nodded, "There's no point in women getting so much education."
Foul Ball. She denied that Pa ever laid a hand on her when I confronted her about all those mornings where I'd find shattered glass as aftermath.
Hit By Pitch. When I tried to blame her for turning a blindeye on Gonzo, him beating me up, she treated me as if I'm crazy to think that ever happened. She will always side with her sons over me no matter what.
Strike 3. Better yet, she'll side with anybody but me. Today, she accused me of fighting with the stupid paralegal even though he's an idiot. She's made up her mind about me: that I start fights. Despite everything I've done for her, this is all I get. I really feel like giving up.
