Parent-Child Moments

Hmmmm....there are many memories between me and my father, but only one that I consider a defining point.

When I was a teenager, me and my father got into a huge fight. The battle raged from room to room until we found ourselves in the backyard. During our time outside, I finally managed to get the upper-hand and locked him in a crane choke hold. During that brief moment, we locked eyes and he squeezed out a sentence with a pale face, "Why are you doing this?"

That simple question shattered my world, and from then on, my respect and honor for him has grown exponentially. To this date, he's never referred to as my step dad, but Father.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
