1.31 Perspective

Persie looked triggered by Calistas' words, and tears welled up in his eyes as he yelled, "If I were really your son, you wouldn't insult and use me. You would love me for who I am and be there for me. Even our neighbors, Aunt Katerina, and Uncle Alex, have been here for me more than you ever have. You wouldn't do the simplest things like waiting for me to start having dinner, yet you always waited for Evander. I've done everything for this family and slaved off at work every day, but I don't even deserve to have dinner with you. You've never asked me how my day was or if I'm okay. Uncle Alex waited at the front door every night for me and asked me if I was okay. When I hear Aunt and Uncle talk about how much they wish they could have a child and how much they would cherish it, it makes my heart ache. They should've had a child, not you two."
