my dad drove a beat-up truck and i cried over it as a kid

So my dad works in cleaning/sanitation, and back when I was in elementary school his work vehicle was this beat-up old truck. Like visibly rough. So whenever he came to pick me up I'd always ask him to park around the corner so nobody would see.

One day my friend was like 'hey let's leave quick before someone from school spots us here' and my dad overheard and just... called my friend over anyway and bought us both something good to eat. Super sweet about it.

Then my friend goes 'omg you're so lucky your dad picks you up!!!' and I was like. dude. it's a TRUCK. 'isn't that weird??' I said it out loud like an idiot.

And my friend just goes 'no I love trucks actually.'

And I felt so pathetic. It's been years but I still went home and cried that day.
