Well it is still Spring Break and I am staying with my father right now. When I was young my parents got divorced and I ended up leaving my amazing house at 7. I live with my mom in a pretty decent house now. For an odd reason I have the urge to stay with my dad at his house even though when my parents were not separated he was never home for me to put me to sleep or nothing. He used to come home at 2:00AM. My dad owns his one refrigeration business in which he does more than refrigeration and fixes mostly diners that have Greek owners due to the fact we are Greek so everyone is friendly with us. When my parents got divorced my dad met some Latin American woman who is now my step mother. I do not consider her my step mom at all. I now have a step brother too. Things I do not like about this is that I feel like he cares about my step brother more than me now. It makes me upset immensely that it is like this since I have been with my dad for these years and never getted to spend time with him. I do believe something was wrong back then when he came so late due to the fact he comes home around 12AM now. Everyday he is hard at work but the sad part is he hides the money he makes from my Mom, my siblings, and I. I am wondering if my dad hides his money to my step brother and his new wife. I wonder what goes on when I am not by him. I wonder who he cares about more, his son who isn't even Greek, or his real son who is more intelligent and doesn't fail in School. The money problem is immense due to the fact everything is hidden good. The diners he fixes has a owner who is a millionaire who manages to hide any income he receives. If you guys are familiar with places at NJ some places he fixes are the Americana, Skylark, Pines Manor which is a Banquet, and about 70 other places. I can go on listing but that would just make you fall asleep. One day my grandfather found out that my dad has a contract to make 120,000 from just three places he fix. With his business there is a estimate he makes around 300,000. I wonder what is he doing with all that money. I think if he is hiding some house from me or he is just saving for one day to come. These questions boggle in my head and I never have an answer to them. My has been looking at houses lately and is planning on buying one. On the phone to a person he claims he makes 85,000 income. My main problem is I wonder why is my dad like this? What is he really trying to do? In addition, who does he care about more? My step brother or me? I know this may seem long but I can go on even longer being even more detailed but I am pretty sure of you guys don't have an answer for me. Sometimes I wish everything can be fine again. I used to have dreams of my old home and certain events in my life. It seems very odd but they have faded away now. I believe this is the cause in which I have become very emotional.
