The next day. Joe could barely sleep throughout the night. How his father jilted him hit his heart like a hammer. 'What did I do to deserve this?' He thought in his head. Joe didn't know when tears started dropping from his eyes. He felt betrayed and alone.
Looking at the card his father gave to him, he became even more sad.
As those thoughts got intense, the news headline he opened on his phone was still there. Joe didn't bother clearing it from the surface of his phone. Joe picked up his phone, he saw that same news headline and he felt like breaking that phone with the anger that was in him.
Joe wouldn't dare try such; even in the heat of anger. He remembered how he was given that phone by his father. He thought it was out of pure love, he never knew his father was just there to use and dump him in the trash.
