Helpless Man

Hunter's POV

"Are you nervous, son?" I heard Cal ask me as I drove my car to the hospital to visit my dad for the first time after he was hospitalized.

"I don't know, Cal. I am so afraid of my own emotion right now because I'm not sure what I am feeling, and I don't have the slightest idea how to face my dad after all the things he had done to me." I responded, and I could feel him turn his head and watch me.

"Well, I guess it is time to forgive your father, I know you loathed him for hurting you so many times, and I am aware he almost harmed Maddie countless times as well, but he is lying in a hospital bed right now, and I am sure he is beginning to look back all the hideous things he did in his life. Even if you are not his biological son, I think growing up, you have felt that he tried to be a good father to you." Cal responded, and I couldn't disagree with him.
