I don't like you, Dad.
You left me here with Mom and Brother for nine years without a word.
Needless to say, I dislike you.

You came back.
I don't want you back.
At first t was nice to fave a father around.
Now you just wanna stay here.

I don't want you here.
I don't like you here.
Leave me be, Dad.
Just go away.

You're just so persistant, aren't you, Dad?
When will you know I don't need you?
A girl wants her father when they are small to teach them.
Momma Finished the teaching. You're only watching what she and I made.

You're a terrible father.
You're a coward.
You're not fir to be called Dad.
Then I'll call you by a name you deserve.

No, not your name James.
No, never again will I call you Dad or even father.
To me your name is Coward.

And it always be.
So Leave me be, Coward.
I want nothing to do with you.
Ever
