Familytherapy Lily 3 Part Special

Runaway – I just wanted her to be happy. She was so lonely after we moved. A new town, no friends, and no boyfriend… And after I heard her that day outside on the phone, I knew I had to try and make her stay… I didn’t mean for things to turn out the way they did… I can’t believe I let myself think it could work. I just loved my little sister more than anything and I began to think she loved me the same way… Now I realize I never knew what she really wanted. I just wish we could go back to the way it was… Promise – I couldn’t believe it when she called and asked if she could come home. I hadn’t heard from my daughter in months… Lily was back at my door the next day. I knew something was different about her, but I tried to ignore those thoughts. I was just so happy. Alex and his Mother were long gone. I expected to be alone until I sold the house, but Lily was back, and I knew anything was possible again… Lily was always my favorite, she grew up to be so beautiful, and with so much promise. And maybe that’s gone now, I’m not sure of anything anymore… It wasn’t long before I found out why she really left. I could have never guessed the real reason why my family had fallen apart, and the things I would do with her… And now I don’t care. What matters is that I have my daughter again, and she’s all the family I’ll ever need…. Nothing Changes – It’s been two years. I have my own house, a god job, groceries in the fridge, and money in my pocket. I told myself I was successful, a new person with a new life. But I still thought about her everyday. I still wished things could have been different… A month ago Lily finally tracked me down. She needed help and she didn’t have Dad to take care of her anymore. Of coarse I gave it to her. I let her move in. I told her I didn’t expect anything in return, and somehow I actually believed that. My little sister told me no one ever really changes. I guess she was right…. The Truth – I’ve been living with my brother for a few months now, and life is simple with him. He goes to work every morning. I stay at home, take walks, clean the house, and I have dinner ready for him every night when he gets back. It’s not the life I expected, but I think I’m finally happy. He’s good to me… Sometimes I think about Dad and I miss him, but the times I feel that way seem farther and farther apart. I’m going to stay right here with my brother. He loves me. And I love him….
