I was working at a bookstore. It was huge and there were hundreds of customers at once. I was the only employee. My family had come to visit me that day as well. I wasn’t looking forward to it. I knew they would distract me from helping customers. I was extremely busy when I saw my family had arrived. I greeted them briefly and had to walk away. My dad made a remark, “Have fun with your little laws.” I am a law student working to become a lawyer in real life. Later on I was helping a regular customer. My dad was now sitting across from him at a picnic table by chance. The customer was an old man and he also had a funny way of speaking, he was clearly mentally disabled. He asked me to get a certain book for him. My dad then repeated that man’s question in a mocking tone, making fun of him cruelly. I looked at the man and gave him an apologetic expression before I started walking away to find the book he asked for. My dad said to the man, “I’m not proud of her.”
