Puppy Dog
I was taking my son to his mom who waits for us in the parking lot of a pawnshop just North of where we live. We agree to let him stay with my Ex-wife when I work weekends
I pulled into the parking lot and I can see the Ex-wife red truck and my daughter sitting on the passenger side looking at me. I look at her and smile and gave a little wave. I normally get out and meet her and hug her and tell her that I love her. But that day I didn’t and I let my son out of the car and he walked to the truck. I then look at my daughter and that look that captured my heart. I can only describe the look as puppy dog eyes looking at me. You know that look, like the puppy wanting to come or to go with you and you can’t bring it with you. Later on, I had the opportunity to talk to my daughter she was visiting my son and me. I sat down beside her and we were talking on the couch and I mention puppy dog eyes.
She said dad I know each time that you drop off D J I look at you and see you and in my heart I wanted to be with you so much, when you drive off I look at you and said to myself dad let me go with you! Then my heart was sad that I couldn’t go with you, but I know you love me dad and I long to be with you more often. I hugged her and told her that I always love her and my door is always open to her. This was comforting to me to sit down and talk to her cause these are the toughest times for a teenager. I will always remember the puppy dog eyes and remember her.
