Lift up your head, Anna! "Kelly repeated. And then he replied that the problem was not just that they had sex but that he was the work of the relationship ... I felt like I was thrown into the barrel. ice. I looked at him suspiciously. I never knew my father had a child other than me and his brother Peter. I immediately called my father and after a hesitant he confirmed what Luke said was true. The horror soon replaced with a bit of relief because there was no romance between me and Luke. Even so I was shocked and very distressed. For his part, Luke almost collapsed. He said it seemed like a thunderstorm had just passed his life. I suddenly felt hot on the back of his neck when Kelly began drying his hair. The next day my father admitted he did not want to reveal love story to her mother Luke, when two My son talked, just because he was married earlier. He told her that she had written to him that he was pregnant but he did not answer the letter because he did not know the truth. "Bad!" I yelled. "What?" Kelly asked me. He soon learned that she was engaged and he decided to keep it private. But sometimes he wondered if he had a real baby, so when I told Luke he was equally shocked ... I got up. "I have to leave." "But it's not over yet," Kelly said as she took off my robe. "No problem. I suddenly remembered my appointment. I'm sorry. "I opened my bag and gave her forty pounds. "Too many - I'll pay you back." "No, just hold on." "Let me dry you up a bit more - I do not want to see you go out like this. "I went out to the door when Kelly said the last sentence," You're back, "my dad said as I entered the house. He was cleaning the pile of toys. "Milly is having a nap - she seems tired." He looked at me with his good eyes remaining. "Did you just go swimming?" "No. You're just in the head. "" They do not blow your hair for me? "" Not enough time because I'm hurry. "I handed him the magazine. "Three read this." "Journal I say! Asian? Is that the third or the Anna type? "" I know. But I want you to see one, this one. "I put my finger on the article. "This is horrible." My father looked at me for a moment. He put on his glasses and I could see every facial pain as he glanced at the article. Then he lowered the glasses. "Is this true?" I leaned in. "Yes," he paused for a moment. "Yes." "Well ... thank you for telling me." My father closed his eyes. "Yesterday you were about to tell me," he moaned. "But then you have to go right to Milly so I can not catch up. This morning I was about to leave. You are about to tell me the whole story. "" But it's been thirty years. "I glared at him. "Why are you with me hiding you?" My father was silent. "Why do not you tell me Mark?" "You should have done that." He sighed. "My parents made a big mistake." I dropped my seat. "So ... when did you first see your mother pregnant?" My father nodded. "He saw her at Lyons Corner House that day and talked, and she asked if she could see her again. I really like her mother but she also worries when she looks sad. On the second visit, my mother told me why she was sad - because she had been abandoned and she had been eight weeks pregnant. "" Poor mother. "" My mother is deeply in pain. What you are most afraid of is when your grandmother knows she will have to adopt the baby. My mother thought that after that he would not be interested in her anymore, but he loved her again. Then my parents talked to me and my daddy told me that the best solution would be to marry her. "" Mummy must be ... surprised. " She thought she was demented, about to be crazy. My mother did not know anything about her. He said that even though it was not wrong, he was thirty-three and he knew himself and he knew she loved her. He said that if they were married, he would treat his son as his own son, with a condition, not to speak to anyone. I believe that it will help keep our family happy and keep our mother from being a liar. Three weeks later his parents got married at Chelsea Town Hall. All the guests knew that it was a wedding and, despite the many voices, their mother tongue left their ears as they helped assert one thing in her belly. In order for people to be suspicious, parents who lie must have met more than two months earlier than they are. "Now that I've broken up, why does my mother look like she's been pregnant for two months? . By that time she has been pregnant for more than three months. "But my parents do not know about each other and still get married is strange." "Yes," my father said. So as he told her, if things were not going well, at least if she divorced she would still be a married woman than a husband without a child, and the child could still have a divorce. "Everything is still going to be fine." "Good luck. Even though my parents have had such hard times as my father told me. ""Under such difficult circumstances is normal. Did your parents decide that you would never tell Mark that? "My father shrugged. "My parents are not thinking about this. When she was eight, she talked to her parents. Then their parents thought that it would break the solidarity of their family - especially the mother who just gave birth to Cassie, it took a long time to care, so the parents decided not to say "" Until now? "" Do you see that time is passing too fast - and it's getting harder and harder to say it. In addition, parents thought that it would cause Mark to fluctuate in a number of important moments, when he graduated from high school and college, then went to medical school ... Parents do not want to risk when Mark is Try your best, all the way to the other exam, so let things go by. Then it went to Africa and not long after returning to meet Carol. Next you know it. "I plop down. Maybe because of this, Mark left for the United States. "" Oh. "My father put his chin on his chin. "It can not stand it. Not only because of the shock, but because of the way it learned the truth - until it introduced Carol. He was very angry with her parents. Mark says he no longer knows who he is - or who we are. Mark took everything in his bedroom as if he had never been there. "" Then he went to San Francisco. "" Yeah. It needs a geographic distance. I think he is finding himself from now on. "" After Mark knew the truth, why did not you tell me and Cassie? "" Come on, "my dad said. "Suddenly my mother died and I had no mind for that anymore so I had to lay it down. Now that you've figured it out yourself - you'll always be scared sooner or later, you know, "my dad said quietly. I glared out the window. "Strange," I muttered. "I always told myself Cassie was not my biological brother because it was so different from me. But that was Mark ... "" Mark is like me ... "" Yes, "I turned to look at my dad. Maybe you want to believe what you think about Cassie is true. "" Why do you have to do that? "" Because it's always the thorn in my eyes. And you always focus on the differences instead of looking at the common points. "I suddenly felt embarrassed. "Maybe three right." I walked toward the closet and took out the photo. Now I only see a general resemblance between Cassie and Carlo - prejudices in my heart make me see two people more similar in reality. Now I understand why Mark ignores the emails I send, and why my mother reacts too when I say she seems to be pregnant when taking a wedding photo. My mother's embarrassment was not due to her shame, but because she felt guilty for having hidden her children secretly for so long. And when the man with a saintly expression came and asked if he could sit down with no - it all starts

like that! Not like that. "What a fabrication," I muttered. "Yeah." "So this piece of paper is a draft of a long letter that Mom sent to Daddy before they were married." early assert. "Mom is still lucky that Dad has come. Try to ask how many men act like three? Do not blame me why I love you so much. "" I believe you love me dearly, "my dad said. "For my part, Dad wants to think so, but what it means is that she can keep the baby. Ironically, when a child grows up, his or her parents really lose it for their own mistakes. But I hope he'll come back, son. "My father looked away. "I miss son too." "I thought he would come back, too," I said. "One day." I did not return to Eden that afternoon. I was still shocked by what my dad said could not allow me to drive. Instead, I spend an entire afternoon alone, reviewing old albums, analyzing every photo of Mark when he was born, toddler, teen and adolescent. Looking at these photos, no one could say that Mark was not my father's biological son. Now, Xan visits Milly. He walked in and stared at me. "Are you ok, Anna? You look a bit gloomy, you say so okay? "" I'm fine, "I lied. "Just a little tired." Xan was holding a large package wrapped amateurly. I asked as Milly ran down the stairs. "One thing could make Milly happy." Milly tearted the wrapping paper outside. "A bike bike!" His eyes lit up. "Mom, I have a bike!" "This will help me get better," Xan explained. "I'm so sorry - Daddy." "Thank you, Daddy!" Why did Xan buy it for Milly, because he discovered that Patrick gave him a bike. "Milly, this one we have to play in the garden," I told Milly. "When you're better." "Are you sure it's okay, Anna?" Xan asked me. "You are like the sky falling down." "Maybe," I replied. "Maybe it's hot." "It's cooler now. I hope you do not have chicken pox like Milly. "" No. I have a long time. What about your new job? Is there any news? "
