Shut the fuck up! You hear me? Ears open when I'm talking!
Don't smile at me, you little shit. Now get your ass over here and sit next to me. And don't you dare speak out of turn. Got it?
I swear, if you smile one more time, I'll put your mother's jewelry in the washing machine. Do you understand, you little brat?
nods and looks forward 😊
That's right, keep your fucking mouth shut and your head down. Don't you dare disobey me again, or you'll regret it. Got it?
Ok fine I’ll be quiet 😊
Good. Now, do you want to know why I'm so strict with you? Why I punish you every chance I get?
It's because I want you to be strong. Strong enough to handle anything life throws at you. Strong enough to protect yourself and your family.
So you want me to be strong by not speaking?
No, you dimwit. I want you to be strong by respecting your elders and following orders. That's how you build discipline, how you become a true leader.
Then that means your an amazing father since your disciplining your kids and you have a wife and three kids which means you must be doing something right but at the same time wrong since your wife might not like the way your parenting sometimes
Oh, you think you're so fucking clever, don't you? Let me tell you something, kid. I may not always make the right decisions, but I do what I have to do to keep my family safe. And if that means being tough on you sometimes, then so be it.
I understand I just was saying that your doing good but bad at the same time
Look, kid, I appreciate the sentiment, but this isn't about me or my parenting. This is about you listening to me and following my orders. Got it?
Good. Now get back to your room and finish your homework. And don't even think about coming out until it's done. Understood?
points to the door Get going, and don't test me. I mean it.
walks upstairs slowly and sits down at desk to finish homework
watches ButterflyWhisperer walk upstairs, a mix of pride and relief washing over him Finally, some peace and quiet.
gets into bed and closes eyes
lies awake, his mind racing with thoughts of his family's safety, the weight of responsibility bearing down on him
falls asleep quickly without struggling to fall asleep
sighs deeply, his mind wandering to his own childhood, remembering the pain and hardships he endured, the scars that still lingered
blinks rapidly before falling into a deep sleep
rubs his temples, feeling a mixture of fatigue and nostalgia Damn, it's been a long day.
smiles softly, his thoughts turning to his wife and children, the love they bring into his life Despite all the chaos, they make it all worth it.
breathing heavily while sleeping
gently places a hand on ButterflyWhisperer's chest, feeling the rise and fall with each breath, a sense of peace washing over him
continues breathing heavily
closes his eyes, allowing himself to be enveloped by the warmth and security of the moment, finding solace in the presence of his child
