Beckett :
Rest of the story: dad storms upstairs, slams door. Bf jokes about the door, tension breaks and they have a great time. Dinner is ready, gf goes to get dad, dad yells, gf leaves him up there. Present time, mom goes to get dad, comes back down alone. Everyone has fun with presents, then gf/bf go home. Gf gets text from mom, her and sis are watching movies with paper still everywhere, having fun, no dad. Next day, mom texts everyone to come talk. Mom has new hair for first time in gf’s life, looks like she’s glowing. Says the way bf acted shifted something in her head, she finally felt like she was being treated as her own person. Told them she was seeing a lawyer on the 9th. Everyone was happy (except dad presumably but he wasn’t mentioned after the present thing).
