A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints Page #8

Come on.

Dito.

Get the f*** off me!

What's the matter with you?

It's gonna be alright.

Do you hear what I'm saying?

It's gonna be okay.

It will be okay.

My friend Mike just died, dad.

He just got f***in' shot.

You don't know what's happening.

What are you talking about?

What happened?

My friend Mike is dead.

Come here.

Don't f***in' touch me!

Please, get the f*** off me!

What is the matter

with you?

You don't raise your hands

to your father!

You don't raise your hands

to your father.

I love you.

I'm asking you

not to f***in' touch me!

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Don't you f***in' do it!

Don't you raise your hands

to me again!

I'm your father.

You're not supposed

to hate your father.

When are you my father?

When are you my father?

You know, I, uh,

I waited around for a year

at my window when you left.

I bought California maps.

Any time I heard

anything about it,

I would think of you.

Embarrassing.

Dumb little girl.

Listen, I'm not heartbroken

about it, alright?

I'm over that sh*t.

I was just a dumb girl.

We were f***in' kids.

Whatever.

But you need to take

your father to the hospital.

I mean, your mother--

I'm serious.

I got a little boy.

He's a good kid.

And he's gonna look after me

when we're older.

So you look after your mother.

You take care of your father.

You take care of your mother.

It's real simple.

'Cause she's a good woman.

It's not a f***in' stretch.

I know what you're saying.

Alright?

Thanks for coming.

I should go.

Wow.

Monty's son.

You know what?

You're Flori's son as well.

And that's why

you're all f***ed up.

Yeah, I'm all f***ed up.

You think you're going?

You're gonna f***in' leave?

Go ahead, f***in' go.

You're not gonna go.

You didn't f***in' come

all the way over

so you could leave again.

You don't know.

You don't know

what it was like

in the house, okay?

Listen.

You want it straight?

'Cause I'm the only one

who's gonna tell you

for some f***in' reason.

You killed him.

You killed your father

when you left.

Are you hearing me?

You f***in' killed him.

You left a trail of blood

when you left.

So forget me.

Forget all this sh*t.

Forget it, alright?

You killed your mother

and you killed your father.

And for the past

f***in' 20 years

he's been dying,

just waiting for you

to come home.

Say daddy, you're f***ed up.

I hate your guts.

Whatever you need to get out

of your angsty little

f***in' head.

Touch my head

one more f***in' time

and I'm gonna go nuts.

Go ahead.

Go f***in' nuts.

Go f***in' nuts.

Let it out!

Stop f***in' running away.

You think you're a man?

That's just a f***in' tail

between your legs.

Go home

and take care

of your mother.

Go home

and take care

of your father.

That's gonna make you

a f***in' man.

That's all you've got left.

'Cause if you don't do

that sh*t, it's too f***in' late.

Okay, bye.

Yeah.

You're going

to hospital.

Where's Ma?

Ma?

Where is she?

Why don't you get out?

Get out of the house.

Did you love me?

Ever?

I said go.

Dad, did you love me

or not?

Daddy, I gotta know.

Lie to me and tell me you did.

Let me feel like

the piece of sh*t I am.

Did you love me

or not?

Answer me!

A father always--

Not a father!

You!

Of course I did.

I told you I loved you

the last time I saw you.

I love you, Dito.

Alright?

You're my son.

I'm very proud of you.

Now, Antonio,

he doesn't have anybody

to tell him something

like this.

Listen, Monday

you don't have

to go to school.

Monday you take your ID.

You go to Riker's.

You see Antonio.

Take your friend Mike with you.

I like that kid.

You take the bus there

with your friend.

You go see Antonio.

Yeah, man.

Have fun.

You're just kids, Dito.

Just kids.

But your friend Antonio,

he needs you now.

'Cause he don't have anybody

to tell him what I just told you.

Come here.

Okay, enough.

Thank you for coming.

I know I'm in the middle

of no place, right?

No, no.

I-- I should've come,

you know, a long time go.

It's alright.

Damn, Dito.

I got so much

I wanna say to you.

I just don't know

what to say.

I don't know what I was

expecting to happen.

Antonio exists.

Crazy, huh?

In the end,

just like I said,

I left everything

and everyone,

but no one.

No one

has ever left me.

Poor Antonio.

He's in for life.

Maybe he'll get out.

Yeah, but he's got

a bad temper.

With a bad temper

you can't be out of here.

He's a good guy, though.

He's a good guy, though.

Oh, yeah.

I like him.

But good guys

don't get out of here.

They won't change.

Not to worry, you know.
