I don't actually hate my dad?

I don't know... I feel like I'm caught in the crossfire.

Do you think you can talk to your dad or your siblings about feeling that way?

I got five siblings. Sure I can talk with them. But some of them really don't wanna talk about it. Even though we're close. Dad on the other hand... I think he's apologetic and genuine. But I can't trust him.

That does sound like you are in the middle of things. That can't be comfortable. And not being able to trust your father can't be comfortable either.

I'm one of the older siblings actually. But I haven't been in contact with the others for a decade. I joined the army after school.

Do you want to be in contact?

Of course I wanted to. I just couldn't. I was a POW, or at least that's what I've been told. I don't remember things very well... head trauma.

I'm sorry that is how it has been for you.

No worried. Ignorance is bliss and all that. Can't feel bad about things I can't remember.

[Aya does not believe that.]

I hope things are getting better for you.

I hope so too.

My name is Fujimiya Aya, by the way. [He bows.] It was nice to meet you.

I'm Sergeant Neil Dawn. Nice meeting you.

It was nice meeting you too, Sergeant.
