Download or read book Hi Dad written by Robert Velves and published by Robert S. Velves. This book was released on 2023-03-27 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some soulmates are meant to part ways and not end up together. Although Treb has intense emotions for a colleague, he has the awareness that it would be inappropriate to pursue a romantic entanglement. Treb is the only one Mariella loves. He embodies all the traits that she seeks in a suitable male companion. Despite being aware of Treb's affection for her, she is perplexed by his lack of initiative in pursuing a potential relationship with her. She asserted her interest in him directly and thus took control of the situation. Despite waiting for a long time, she has yet to receive any form of reciprocation. Mariella, who was beautiful, bright, and youthful, had her affections for Treb turn from strong love to hatred because of perceived rejection. In order to seek revenge, she and her friends concocted a plan to create slight nuisances for Treb, just enough to irritate him greatly. Treb, who stoically endured the torment of unrequited love through his adherence to self-restraint, ultimately faced utter devastation due to the uncompromising adherence to his moral values. Inevitably, he was left with no choice but to leave. Forever. ---------------- I sighed and locked the door behind me, telling the reflection to leave me alone. I expect to be welcomed with "Hi Daddy" pleasantries from younger coworkers when I enter the workplace building. Words that have become synonymous with rudeness for me since it suggests age discrimination. Additionally, my stomach doesn't have the audacity to accept certain faces as my children, especially those who appear older than me and whose faces even their own mothers would disown. Even those security guards who have the bravado to be polite call me "dad", and I am not sure if that is now included in their training. Included are those in higher management positions who appear relieved to find someone older in age, as if my face can hide their horrible adult fats. For some people, the fact that the word ''faces'' rhymes with feces is no coincidence. Please accept my apologies for being mean, but I also deserved to be handled with kindness and sensitivity. I remembered Al Pacino’s line in the movie, Devil’s Advocate, ‘’I rest my case. Vanity is definitely my favorite sin. Kevin, it's so basic—self-love is the all-natural opiate.'' Those I consider real friends are those who call me Treb.

One look at his picture and she knew she needed to find him. Her letters and phone calls went unanswered, so at seventeen, Kara hired a lawyer and announced her paternity suit before a packed press conference. In the middle of the media frenzy, Governor Sundlun did the unexpected and invited Kara to come live with him so he could get to know her better.

Download or read book Dad written by Bob Seay and published by Bob Seay. This book was released on 2021-04-09 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can an underachieving son reconnect with his father before it's too late? Jacob's life is already complicated enough. Now his Dad, whose mind isn't as sharp as it once was, is driving out for a visit. Or he was, before he got lost along the way. Now it's up to Jacob to get this right. A touching story about families, relationships, and aging parents. Editorial Review by Jon Michael Miller of Readers' Favorite In Dad by Bob Seay, we meet Jacob, our narrator and protagonist, in his mid to late thirties, struggling both in his professional world and in his marriage. With his "compulsion to tell everybody everything," he tells us his story as if we are his best friends, exposing all his failures and amusing quirks. Brooke, his wife, wants all his money, and he has lost his job as a high school teacher. In survival mode, he lives in Colorado and works as a ghost-writer of term papers for college students. He lives and works online from the back room of a laundry. His squalid existence is interrupted when he is informed by his brother back in Cincinnati that their dad, suffering from Alzheimer’s, has hit the road and is in a hotel room in Kansas City, Missouri. Jacob is the logical person to collect his old man. In so doing, he finds his dad having lunch with a hotel maid Amelia, who is watching over him. We soon become familiar with the sights along Interstate 70, as his dad tells Jacob about installing communications devices in St. Louis’s Gateway Arch. He has other stories about his activities on Mars and in submarines. Despite Jacob’s honest flaws and his relentless search for self and redemption, I came to like and even to identify with him. Yes, he is largely responsible, as he admits, for his own problems. Fortunately, he is in a stable, tight-knit family, all intent on taking care of their sad, but sometimes funny dad. But I felt that Dad is the vehicle of the real underlying story, which is Jacob trying to dig himself out of the hole he has dug for himself. He meets his female spiritual twin in the person of Amelia, not really a hotel housekeeper but a refugee from nursing and an aspiring artist. She escapes from an abusive, Confederate flag-flying boyfriend into Jacob’s black Mustang convertible, nicknamed Beast, which hauls Jacob back and forth several times between Denver, Kansas City, Topeka, and Cincinnati. “We’re all doing the best we can,” says Amelia compassionately. I was both sadly moved and often amused by Jacob’s search for a better life. And along with the story, we learn a lot from the various topics Jacob ghost-writes about—nursing burnout, the Feds, Buddhism, and neo-Nazis, to name only a few. Oh, yes, and the Stanford Marshmallow Index, which somehow nibbles at Jacob’s core. And we meet a quirky, loving family in the turmoil of losing the family patriarch, who is quite an overarching backdrop in his own right. Author Bob Seay dedicates his novel Dad “to all families with aging parents,” and I cannot imagine a more accurate portrayal or one more moving.

Download or read book DAD written by Jean Jackson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have written this book with families in mind. It contains no sexual references or bad language. I am hoping that my audience will remember a time when movies were all about innuendo and novels made us pant by the mere suggestion of a long kiss. I believe it would make a delightful movie that families could watch together with a bowl of popcorn and a shared bottle of soft drink. I also feel it could be thought provoking and help to recognise and heal wounds and rifts that exist for too long when families disagree.
