Summer ‘93

It’s written on the back in a cursive scrawl.

“What am I missing, Thane? That man has to be my father. Why would my mother give me this?” I hold up the picture. “Why should she give me a photograph of someone who isn’t my dad?”

“Maybe she doesn’t want you to know who your father really is,” he says gently.

“Why not? What the hell is this?” I sniff, realizing that I am crying. I swipe at the tears.

“I don’t know.” Thane pulls me into his arms. “I wish I had answers for you.”

I let him hold me because I don’t know what else to do. I bury my face into his chest, trying to get myself back under control.

All the lies. The deception. Why?

Then I pull away. “I need to speak to my mother.” My face feels hot as anger rises in me. “I will insist. I’ll break down her door if I have to.”

“Not today,” Thane says. “It’s late.” He pulls out his cellphone and texts someone. “There is a storm rolling in.” He points at the crimson sky, and sure enough, a bank of clouds is gathering. “We’ll stay here tonight. You’ll have to wait until tomorrow for those answers you need.”

“What’s one more day?” I mutter. “I’ve been waiting for answers for twenty-eight years.”
