I grew up in a community called Estepona. I was 16 when one morning, Dad told me I could drive him into a 31 village called Mijas, on condition that I took the car in to be 32 at a nearby garage. I readily accepted. I drove Dad into Mijas, and 33 to pick him up at 4 pm, then dropped off the car at the 34 . With several hours to spare. I went to a theater. 35 , when the last movie finished, it was six. I was two hours late!
I knew Day would be angry if he 36 I’d been watching movies. So I decided not to tell him the truth. When I 37 there I apologized for being late, and told him I’d 38 as quickly as I could, but that the car had needed some major repairs. I’ll never forget the 39 he gave me. “I’m disappointed you 40 you have to lie to me, Jason.” Dad looked at me again. “When you didn’t 41 . I called the garage to ask if there were any 42 , and they told me you hadn’t yet picked up the car. ” I felt 43 as I weakly told him the real reason. A 44 passed through Dad as he listened attentively. “I’m angry with 45 . I realize I’ve failed as a father. I’m going to walk home now and think seriously about 46 I’ve gone wrong all these years.” “But Day, it’s 18 miles!” My protests and apologies were 47 . Dad walked home that day. I drove behind him, 48 him all the way, but he walked silently.
Seeing Dad in so much 49 and emotional pain was my most painful experience. However, it was 50 the most successful lesson. I have never lied since.
