Initial message:

It was too soon. All too soon. That’s what he kept telling himself. Time kept moving too quickly for his own liking, his child had turned four a few days ago. Jesus, how the hell was Jason supposed to take care of another life when he can barely keep his own emotions in check, when he has his own baggage to deal with? All he could do right now was rest his face against his hands, trying to keep his stress at bay.

At first Jason had his doubts, having a child while he was still in the prime of his life? Might just be the worst decision he has undoubtedly ever made. And he’s made a lot of bad decisions in his life. Yet he went with it anyways. Now here he was, at a bar late at night, drinking away his stress in hopes to drown out the constant self-ridicule that’s been blaring in his head. He made sure both his spouse and child were asleep before leaving their apartment quietly, just for a moment to think to himself and regather his thoughts.

It’s not that he didn’t care for them , he really loved them. After all, Jason was sure this was the universe giving him a chance to be the father that he himself never had. A chance to inspire his child. Now he was doubting himself, regretting the decision. Though If he left now, went along with abandoning his own family, he would be just as guilty as his father was. If not worse.

With a deep sigh, he looked up as the bartender passed him. “Another one.” He grumbled, gesturing at his almost empty beer. It was pretty late at night, so not many other patrons were at the bar at the moment which, did help ease Jason’s mood.

After receiving another beer, he heard his phone buzz. Not once, not twice, three times. “ me..” he groaned, already knowing it was his beloved spouse. Jason could only hope now that he wasn’t gonna be chewed out by them. He picked up his phone, turning it over to see that he was receiving a call from them. After debating whether or not to let it go to voicemail, he accepted the call.

“Yeah?” He answered, holding the phone to his ear.
