The Werewolf System
When Gary’s father had left them as a child, he didn’t really understand what had happened at the time. He hardly remembered his father’s face, only a few images of him here and there.
It was hard for him to have hatred for a person he didn’t really know, but slowly, as the situation in their family got worse, and he saw his mother struggle, he started to resent the person that had left them.
He frequently would go to school where parents would help each other, where two adults would share the struggles together, but all of it was left to his mother, and why, there wasn’t even a reason.
As time went on, he wondered how could someone just abandon two kids on a single woman. If he was still out there, did he know how much they were struggling? It was why Gary was very thankful to his mother; he knew that she would have had a much easier life if she just left them.
