Change



Folk often say time changes people.  I know Papa and I have had our differences although I never expected things to end up like this.  He never was harsh with Ean or Edith probably because Ean never stayed around long enough to be lectured or earn his disapproval. Edith well she ran off and got married that blacksmith. I hardly see my Brother-in-law enough to remember his name.  Then there's me little 'Lena'.  Who apparently should feel really important because of who her Father is. 

Lena who never learned to be a proper lady, Lena that broke her Father's trust because she would rather wander around town than stay locked away in the house all day.  We had arguments before this time I fear it would be the last.  A few days after our spat a courier came telling me I was no long welcome in the home. Instead of being 'Daddy's little girl'  I became a 'whore' in his eyes, we all know whores have no home.  They stalk the streets waiting for their next customer or victim however one looks at it. He used to say to me when I was little "Lena. You're such a good girl, Lena you always do as I ask. I want the world for you."

Now I don't know what to think. Is he still my hero? Do I still love Papa? I'm torn.
