I was in the home I grew up in and was tearing up bread with my sister Teresa and sister Sharon to make dressing for Thanksgiving. My younger sister Michelle was sitting on the other end of a church pew that was in our breezeway where we were preparing this. She was Watchung the small screen TV on the wall. My older sister Sharon had to leave for some reason and Teresa and I continued to tear up the bread and soak it in the broth. Sharon calls to let Teresa know a judge needed to see her. She cleaned off her hands and left. I finished and was sitting on the pew with Michelle. I looked up at the wall and my dad, who passed away many years ago was like a mounted deer, with his head and torso mounted, but with out arms. He looked as I remembered him. The head turned and I started yelling daddy? His one shoulder area was moving as if to tell me to come over. I got up and walked over and the mount fell into my arms. Chest to chest and head to head. It didn't have arms but I felt the arms around me in the tightest hug and I cried uncontrollably saying I am sorry. This hug felt so real. I hear the garage open and it heard what I thought was Teresa going to the garage bathroom. The doorbell rings while I am still holding my dad, or the mount of my dad. My mother let a lady and her two high-school age children in. They accused Teresa of driving in front of their house that morning making a drug deal with a white substance in a zip lock bag. Threatening that she could go to prison. My mom calls me to the kitchen table and had to let go of my dad. I told my mom they were lying and I could prove that Teresa had been in there making dressing with us since early morning. I said daddy had our backs and I told Teresa to come out of the bathroom because I was not going to let anything happen to her. I was mad and in there face saying I was not going to let them lie about her and that daddy had my back. I demanded polygraph and said I knew they had anterior motives. I explained the gap in time because of Teresa leaving to see the judge and the event with my dad. I was still crying and telling the lady and her son, that I was not about to let anything happen to Teresa for their lies and daddy had our back too.
