A father
passing by his teenage daughter's bedroom was astonished to see the bed nicely
made and everything neat & tidy.
Then he saw an envelope propped up prominently on the centre of the pillow. It was addressed “Dad”. With the worst premonition he opened the envelope and read the letter with trembling hands:
Dear Dad,
It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I'm leaving home, I had to elope with my new boyfriend Randy because I wanted to avoid a scene with you and mum. I've been finding real passion with Randy and he's so nice to me. I know when you meet him you'll like him too - even with all his piercings, tattoos and motorcycle clothes. But it’s not only the passion Dad, I'm pregnant and Randy wants me to have the baby and we can be happy together.
Even though Randy is much older than me (anyway 42 isn’t much old these days, is it?), and has no money, really these things shouldn’t stand in d way of our relationship, don’t you agree?
Randy has a great CD collection, and he already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood to last us the whole winter. It’s true he has other girlfriends as well but I know he'll be faithful to me in his own way. He wants many more children with me & that has become one of my dreams too.
Randy taught me that marijuana doesn’t really hurt anyone and he'll be growing it for us and we'll trade it with our friends for all the ecstasy and cocaine we want.
In the meantime we'll pray that science finds a cure for AIDS so that Randy can get better, he sure deserves it!!
Don’t worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I can take care of myself. Someday I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your grandchildren.
Your loving daughter,
ROSIE.
At the bottom of the page were the letters ''P.T.O'' With hands still trembling, her father turned to the next page and read:
PS: Dad, none of the above is true, I'm over at the neighbour's house, I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things than my bad report card that's in my desk centre drawer. Please sign it and tell me when it’s safe to come home.
