Shaka just calmly looked at Haley's father when he asked this and gave a simple nod in response.
When Haley's father saw this nod, he desperately shook his head and said, "No, this can't be real! If it's real, then what has everything that I've been doing for!"
He threw the pieces of paper on the ground and he grabbed his head, pulling at his hair and scratching his scalp. He was doing all that he could to avoid the truth that had been placed in front of him.
But there was no avoiding it.
He continued to suffer like this for a bit longer until he finally reached a conclusion…
"This all has to be a lie! This must be a lie that you concocted to trick me! There's no way that any of this can be true!" Haley's father roared out.
The way that he said this, it was almost as if he was trying to convince himself that this was the truth. He was desperately trying to find some kind of explanation that would help him justify everything that he had done.
