Daddy?
:38:03
Now what is it?
:38:05
Are you going away?
:38:07
No.
:38:09
I'm staying here with you.
You can't get rid of me that easy.

:38:13
That's why Mommy left, isn't it?
Because I was bad?

:38:17
Is that what you think?
:38:20
No.
:38:23
That's not it, Billy.
Your mom loves you very much...

:38:27
...and the reason she left has
nothing to do with you.

:38:32
I don't know if this will make sense,
but I'll try to explain it to you.

:38:40
I think the reason why Mommy left...
:38:43
...was because for a long time...
:38:45
...l kept trying to make her be
a certain kind of person.

:38:51
A certain kind of wife that
I thought she was supposed to be.

:38:56
And she just wasn't like that.
She was....

:39:00
She just wasn't like that.
:39:04
I think that she tried for so long
to make me happy...

:39:10
...and when she couldn't,
she tried to talk to me about it.

:39:14
But I wasn't listening.
I was too busy, too wrapped up...

:39:18
...just thinking about myself.
:39:21
And I thought that anytime
I was happy, she was happy.

:39:25
But I think underneath
she was very sad.

:39:31
Mommy stayed here longer than she
wanted because she loves you so much.

:39:37
And the reason why Mommy
couldn't stay anymore...

:39:41
...was because she couldn't stand me.
:39:44
She didn't leave because of you.
She left because of me.
