Well, today is the day I've been dreading for a few days now. The letter should be in the mail when I go home today. Yes, the letter that tells us who is suing us, on what basis, and when the court date is. I know I shouldn't be worried because it's my father's business really, but in reality, I can't live like this.
I mean, I want to take this burden off of my fathers' shoulders and just let him relax. He's a complete mess now, and who can blame him? I mean, he's being sued years after he has left the country, and he still has no idea on what grounds or what the amount is. He's too old for this. Oh I wish there was a way that he would just let me take over. I feel horrible, I feel handicapped. I can't help in any way.
I told him that I would appear in court on his behalf, but he refused the idea and told me to focus on my schooling now. I understand where he's coming from, but sometimes I just wish he would let life take its course...well what I really wish is that he just sit down, relax and let his kids take care of him.
It's 1:30pm now. post office told the family "friend" that the mail should arrive at my door at 3:00pm. Mail man comes by around 4pm, so that gives me enough time to leave work, go to the bank, deposit the check, grab something to eat and go home. Get the letter, go to Kinko's or something, fax the paper over to my father, go to my friends' house, pick up my stuff, go home, finish work from home, call my parents to see if they received the fax...then just sit and wait. Oh it's going to be painful. The waiting period that is.
Pray for us.
