' Could things possibly get better?'- I wonder as I lay back in my chair while taking occasional sips from my cup of tea, and enjoying the senary out my room, only to hear the most annoying knock.

I wanted the both of you" I confess sincerely. Although I never loved his father, I was thrilled to discover that I was going to be a mom. " Really now. You say one thing and do the other. If you wanted me so much, why did you abandon me back then?" He questions, searching my face for answers.
