His girlfriend asked me to write a letter asking for him not to be deported.. She begged me and said “Please, even if you don’t really love him, please do this for me.”
What hurts the most is that I’ve secretly always missed him and loved him and when I heard that he was getting deported back to Argentina I felt like now I’m never going to get the chance to know what it’s like to have a dad..
The problem now is I have no idea what to say in this letter.. I don’t know how to say what I feel.. I’m hurt still by what he did when I was younger and part of me still can’t forgive him completly.. But another part of me has missed him sinse I was a little girl.. Now I feel like if I don’t make this letter sound good enough he’s going to be deported and I’ll be to blaim.. I need to have it done by wednesday..
Personaly, I think you should tell your dad exactly how you feel and why. Explain to him that you love him and want to forgive him. If he gets deported, it won’t be your fault. Everything is in God’s plan and everything will sort itself out. Not to preach at you, I’m sorry if it sounds that way, but tell your dad how you feel and don’t feel like his future rests in your hands.
I’ll be praying for you ~ Grace
Thank you, I will.. My sister called me today and also begged me.. I feel so bad that everyone thinks I hate him when I really don’t.. I know I made it seem that way but I just had a lot of anger when I was growing up.. I just hope that if he stays, we can become a bit closer.. I know it will still feel awkward and he’ll still be more like a stranger than my dad but he’s the only one I got and it just hit me now that I’m about to lose him a 2nd time..
