musing_way Prompt 04 -- Daddy Issues

I didn't really know much about my dad when I was younger. All I remembered was that one day he was there... and then he wasn't. It was hard because I was really little when mom died and then dad left us, too.
Grams wouldn't talk much about him except to say that he wasn't worthy of us and that we deserved better than him. Piper was quiet about it, but Prue hated him. I think she was hurt the worst by him leaving because she was the one of us who was old enough to remember more things about him.
As I grew older, I would fantasize about meeting up with our dad and how he would explain that everything that happened was just a big mistake and some kind of monster had made him leave to protect us. When I graduated high school, I started actively searching for him. Shortly before Grams died, I found out that he was somewhere in New York. So, after Prue and I fought one time too many and her accusations hurt to deeply, I decided to run away to New York and find my dad. He and I were both outcasts in the family so we'd be fine together.
Only, I didn't find him and things got bad for me. I had to return to San Francisco and my sisters because I had nowhere else to go.
My search for my dad got put on hold because my sisters and I discovered we were actually powerful witches and there really were monsters out there that sought to hurt us.
Then came the day where he showed up in San Francisco and wanted to reunite with us and wanted us to be a family. Only things didn't go well. There was a misunderstanding and I had a vision of him taking the book of shadows from us. We got that mess straightened out and then ended up doing a spell to save ourselves that almost killed him.
I thought that things were going to be okay after that. He said he wanted to get to know us better and be a part of our lives. All of us were willing to give him a chance. We made a date for all of us to get together as a family.
He never showed up.
