Talked out, I stopped, sighed, and expected Jacob to say something pat, commiserate with a "God, can you believe parents?" or "Are you sure your dad wasn't just trying to be funny?" But he stayed completely quiet as though he were listening to my silence, processing what I was saying without words. And finally, he said, "Even geniuses can be Class A assholes."p.172 taken from North of Beautiful by Justina Chen Headley
____________________________________________________________________
I am currently living outside of Seattle where I live with my mother who eats her feelings and my father who is a verbally abusive jerk. I'm not perfect and he can't stand that. He hates looking at me because half of my face is covered with a port wine stain. I just want to get out of here and go far, far, away to college but I'm sure that dad won't pay for me to attend an "art" school. Life is depressing, that is until I met Jacob......now there seems to be all sorts of possibilities!
