Thanksgiving

It hurts—a subtle, persistent ache in my chest—as I grapple with the complex emotions that accompany being sidelined. The rift between my father and me hangs in the air like an unspoken truth. Despite the festive spirit that brought us together for Thanksgiving, the fracture remains, casting a shadow over the familial bonds. While the rest of the family gathers for dessert at my sisters, I am left alone, isolated in the aftermath of a strained relationship.
