010. Reflection
Wade stared at fading bruises in the mirror. At twelve, he had realized that his father was no war hero. At thirteen, he had called Derrick on it. And at thirteen, he had learned that his father believed his own fantasies so much that he would hurt his own son to protect those lies. His world was that fragile. The truth would break him.
He resolved something right then. The boy would not become the father. He would never lose himself in his own fantasies. No matter how bad it got.
It was not a promise that he would keep.
