Why did you regret it?

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

It might not be too late to make it right, Guv.

[havinhoops]

Yeah, Drake, it is.

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

You know, it might help to talk about it, rather than just pushing me away again.

[havinhoops]

Aye, I'll sit down on your sofa an' you can 'ave a nice little psychiatry session and analyse me with all that bollocks Freud thought up. 'aven't got an Oedipus complex, Bolly.

I didn't mean that as a psychologist, Gene. I meant that as your friend.

[havinhoops]

Or we could do like we've always done, I don't ask about your past and you don't ask about mine.

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

If that's the way you want it...

[havinhoops]

You 'ave any siblings, Bols?

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

Siblings? No, I don't.

[havinhoops]

I 'ad a little brother - 'e'd be a couple years older'n you, prob'ly.

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

Oh, I had no idea, Gene. What happened, between you two?

[havinhoops]

'e kept takin' th' money I gave our mum, an' then everything I sent 'er during my service. When I got back, I told 'im t' leave till 'e could get 'is act t'gether.

[poshmouthytart.livejournal.com]

And now you regret having sent him away?

[havinhoops]

I dunno, really. Maybe I ought t' 'ave tried 'arder earlier on t' steer 'im right. Only so much I could do, though.

Well, that's it exactly, isn't it? You can't blame yourself for his choices. You can try to help, but people still have to take responsibility for their actions if it's going to make any difference.
