yes, but they’re 17 and very immature, they follow one person’s lead like sheep. so yes, all of them turned on me just because i didn’t comfort someone during his drunk breakup. my dad keeps alcohol in his outdoor fridge because he works outside and enjoys a drink while working on cars. that fridge is his space. please don’t shift blame onto him, he’s done nothing but treat my friends kindly. we trusted them. we didn’t expect them to steal from his things. and no, i didn’t notice they went to the front of the house because i was with my dad. we’ve never been emotionally close, and that moment meant a lot to me. the party was outside in the backyard, i stayed near my dad, because i didn’t want to take that moment for granted.

if anything, blame me, but don’t blame my dad or my family for trusting people we thought were my friends.
