The Bitter TruthRelated image

Every child idolizes their parents at least one point. Similarly, Carrol glorified her father and like most of the people, her idol was just another human whose life was not going so smooth. The girl who thought she knew her dad one day realized that she has never truly known her father. The truth was no matter how hard she tries to know what was wrong with her dad, she was a kid.

There was a drawer in the study table which Carrol’s father never allowed anyone to touch; not even his wife. While everyone appreciated his privacy, Carrol was tempted to check what lies in the drawer. She just wanted to resolve her father’s weird behavior but never imagined this will result in changing her own life.

Whenever her parents used to come home late, Carrol being the eldest of all, used to look after her brothers. This made Carrol a mature girl before time. She could take care of 8 younger brothers without any hesitation.

Soon Carrol grew up to become a beautiful young lady. She married the guy who loved her the most. She left her parents and siblings but distances only increased her affection for them. Knowing that her parents are now old, she used to visit her childhood home every now and then. Even after getting married, her dad was her favorite man with whom she shared everything but her dad never did the same.

Carrol stopped thinking about her father’s issue when she got indulged in her own life. Time ran quickly and Carrol never got a chance to check on the drawer. Once she had her first baby, she was completely lost in her family and rarely got time to visit her parents. Carrol was now a 60- year old lady and the final time came when she was so close to this secret of her dad’s.

Once Carrol got busy with her kids and husband she almost forgot about her father’s grief. Her father, on the other hand, turned worse from bad. He used to stay alone most of the day. He was sick and was asked not to leave the bed for a few days. His health deteriorated day by day and everyone assumed that it was because of his old age. However, when they took him to a doctor they understood that it wasn’t the effect of age.
