Letting Her Go

Ashton's POV

"Please, Dad, leave Megan's family alone. I am begging you. And let Megan's parents have their jobs back, and I will do everything you want me to do." I begged my dad, and I could see the amusement on his face as he stood up from his swivel chair. I know this is the first time I have come into his office unannounced. I know my father always came home late, and ever since I learned Megan's parents lost their jobs, I felt so guilty that I am the reason Megan's entire family is having a hard time right now, and I couldn't wait another day to speak with my dad.

I can't forget the sadness on my girlfriend's face, and I couldn't stop blaming myself because she was suffering. And I don't want her to be miserable for a long time, and I better take the pain.

"Okay, as I expected, you will do the right thing, son. And I felt so glad that you didn't disappoint me." He said.
