Your dad wants to apologize, but he doesn\u2019t know how.\u201d I wasn\u2019t sure I could face him, but a part of me still missed the father I used to know.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1955930\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>When I returned home, my dad looked different\u2014older, quieter, and filled with regret.
