Respecting one's father

Q: I disappointed my father and now I don't know how to get him to look at me with love again, I feel so bad looking at him in that state, what can I do to change this condition?

A: Sincerely repent to Allah Ta'ala and ask your father for forgiveness. Show respect to him, serve him and speak to him with love and compassion.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
