Dream
The part that I remember about my dream, had to do with my father, who is estranged in my waking life. I think I was taking care of my kids and also the neighbors kids, and then after finally getting them settled in, I went to grab my phone but could not find it. That’s when my father handed me my phone. I grabbed it and went into my bedroom to go to sleep. As I looked at it I realized it was completely smashed, shards of glass flaking off the screen. I went back to my father to confront him. He said he did not break it. I asked him if he dropped it on accident, and he denied that too. That made me even more angry, and as I showed him the condition of my phone, I felt like I could tell by his face that he was lying about breaking the phone, whether it was intentional or not. I told him it wasn’t like this before, and asked him if he was going to replace it. He said no. That made me even more enraged, and I started yelling at him, telling him how expensive it was and how I couldn’t afford it. He asked me if it still worked, and I told him FOR NOW it does, but it won’t for much longer. Not only that but it wasn’t safe due to the sharp shards of glass that were flaking off and me having young kids who like to play on it sometimes. Deep inside I know I was kind of happy that I now had an excuse to get a new phone, but I did not want to express that. The argument was going nowhere so I stormed back to my room angry and crying. There was more to this dream but I cannot recall at this moment.
