SPOILER ALERT: I'M TALKING ABOUT THE LAST PART OF THE READING DUE AFTER BREAK!!
So Chick's father calls his son after his second disappearance from Chick's life and tells Chick that he is going to go back into baseball and that's that without even asking once if Chick would like to go back into playing baseball. Chick tells his father, who completely ignores him, that he has a job and does not want to play baseball anymore even though he ends up following his father's orders like he used to when he was a kid.
Do you think that it was OK for Chick's father to just walk back into his life like nothing bad has ever happened?

You could honestly see this kind of behavior in anyone - parents, friends, relatives. Either way, they all stem back to the relationship of convenience. Perhaps it was out of awkwardness, greed, or even a lousy attempt to get on good terms, but Chick's father evidently had no remorse nor concern for his son's point of view. Chick follows his father's spur of the moment demands after so many years due to his former, wild obsession of gaining approval setting in stone as a second-nature instinct. If it wasn't for this, I would presume that Chick would brush his father off his shoulders and maybe even teach him a verbal lesson or two.
