You bring home 96 percent. Your dad reads it, puts it down, and asks about the other four. Not angrily. Just curious. Which is worse.

You ring home to say you've been promoted to manager. A pause. "Manager of what?" You tell him. Another pause. "And who manages you?"

You cook for the family for the first time. Everyone eats. Dad finishes, considers the plate, and says "next time, less salt". You'll take it. It's practically a medal.

You finish your first marathon in four hours. He asks how long the winner took. You tell him just over two. He nods slowly, as if this settles something between you.
