I Am A Daddys Girl
When my Mum left when I was six my Dad was truly surprised. She hadn't been able to settle in England, she returned to her grandmother's home in southern France, leaving me, and my Dad without an explanation.
My Dad discovered she'd divorced him when I was eleven, and she has remarried, and I have a nine years old half brother.
Dad and I are very close, we have been very much interdependent ever since her departure. All that I would have gone to my Mum for I go, have gone to my Dad for. We have had all the discussions, from girl talk through religion and politics, everything, even boys!
My Mum has not tried reinserting herself in my life, and my Dad does hid best to explain this, trying to absorb the guilt for it in her place.
