Katherine, Katherine, Katherine.
"No! " she screamed at the top of her lungs . Joseph was yelling and screaming and throwing things at her once again . Horrible images of when she was little and he would throw the pens off his desk to her , or he would throw his whiskey at her if she bothered him . Or those nights when she went to say goodnight and he would lock her out . Leaving her cold and sad in her room .

Her whole life her father sheltered her from poverty and going hungry , he said he was protecting her . The moment her mother died so did the father daughter happiness .

Before Gloria died Katherine and Joseph would go out for ice cream or take a nice stroll when he picked her up from school . They would stop at the flower shops on the way home and pick some out for Gloria .

When Katherine was younger he would take her to his office and she would type on his old typewriter. The click clack of the keys made a happy melody that would play through out his office . When Katherine was learning to read Joseph would sit her on his lap at his desk and they would read the morning paper together .

But it all stopped . When Gloria was announced dead Joseph threw out the memories of Katherine. He thought he didn't need to be a father .

"Why !" She screamed as he threw a book at her , this was one of her more intense arguments with her father , "Your writings are horrible ! They'll never make anyone money !" He screamed . "You have no talent ! You don't try ! You look . You don't deserve to live !"

"What did I ever do to you ?" Katherine said cowering in a corner . "When I was younger I was Daddy's princess , I use to make ties for you out of old doll clothing ! I would sew buttons on random things ! I would make you drawings and pictures at school of us as a happy family ! I never called you out or made fun of you ! Why do you treat me this way ?" She said hot tears running down her face , leaving her cheeks stained .

"When your mother left all I had was you , I loved your mother so much it physically hurt me to see her in pain , and when you were born I saw once glance at you and saw the resemblance of you and your mother ! She had brown hair and big brown eyes ! I couldn't stand and see something so beautiful that remind me of something so sad ! So I shut you out !" "But why ? I didn't do anything ! I was only 12! I couldn't have killed her !" "I know , but seeing her in you killed me , and I didn't want to go through that pain " "so you choice to hurt me instead ?" "That's all I ever knew Katherine!" "But don't you see ? That's were all our problems stem from ! My whole life I always felt i was never enough ! I felt worthless ! I've even tried to kill myself !"

Joseph's face went blank after that , the though of his only family trying to harm and Jill themselves hurt me greatly . "why ?" He whispered , they where now face to face . "Because I thought you'd be happier " "Katherine, I could never be happier without you , I'm so sorry for everything I've ever done to you . You where my daughter and I as your father am suppose to protect and love you , but hurt you and that's what I did , can you ever forgive me ?" He said , his eyes growing glassy on the verge of crying . "Yes " she said . Joseph wrapped his arms around her and hugged her for the first time in almost 5 years .
"I love you Katherine "
"I love you too daddy "

"Things will get better " he whispered .
