Now fall off to sleep, I'm not meaning to keep you...

I wonder if he knew that morning, that it would be the last time that he saw me. I wonder if that's why he was crying. I hadn't even thought about it. He was so much better. I honestly believed that he was going to be alright.

That's the last thing I said to him, "You're gonna beat this thing." And that's it? Those were the last words that I get to speak to my father in person.

I can't be here right now. I can't be at this job, doing this presentation. I can't listen to anyone right now. Their voices make me want to punch them. But what else would I do anyway? Sit at home and wait? I suppose it is better that I am here at work, at least I have a job to do. I'll leave the presentation as soon as I can tonight and call dad. What will I say?

I can't be here right now. I can't do this...

dad
