Missing Pieces
Recently I contacted my brothers to retrieve a part of my past that my memory has forgotten. I wanted to know the name of the cruise ship our family took to the Bahamas.
My much older brother gave me an answer...the U.S.S. Tropicale. But I don't know if I can trust him. He is a trickster.
My younger brother, well, the way he has dealt with our parents death is to hate them, make them abandoners, erase them like they never existed in the first place. It is almost like he was reborn in some form when he was 15, standing in front of their caskets.
I do have two aunts. But their memories, just like their lifestyles, are so vastly different that they come up with two stories that don't even match anything.
I wish I had parents just so I could get the backstory. What really happened when? I want the little details that seem to be missing.
