I mumbled to no one, my eyes fixated on the blue sky as I sat on a bench at the entrance of the second-year building.

'Why did that bastard do that?'

My mind raced with different scenarios I could think of to justify my shitty father's behavior, but not a single thing came to me that could explain why he was trying to keep Grace away from me.
