Drunk Again

Authors note: This is a creative piece about the man Character, Jenna, writing a letter to her father. The purpose is to improve in my character development.

Dear dad,

Hello, this is Jenna your daughter, if you truly cared about me why are you drunk all the time? I ask myself this every day, why you may ask, it’s because I care about you, you’re my dad. Why are you drunk all the time? Is it to help me or hurt me, because so far it has only hurt me? You’ve never been there for me? You’ve only been there for yourself and your drinking needs. Who knows, maybe in the end we will figure out why you drink and why you are never there for me. Whenever I go to see you all I see is a drunk father that never helps me with anything. Why is it that you never help me and why is it that you choose to drink and not help with your family? If you really loved us you would quit drinking to support us.

Furthermore, why do you give me the idea that you really don’t care about me. Whenever I have the chance to talk to you I get happy, but then I realize that, your drunk again. If you think that this is going to help me in the end keep it up, but at least tell me before and make sure that your not drunk when you tell me. If you truly know that this will not help me, can you please try your hardest to stop drinking. I love you dad. Mom, and Faith do too. You really couldn’t stop drinking to help us, if you can, will you?

From,
Jenna
