I went to my father to tell him that I wanted to get married to the girl next door, and he warned me off. That girl, he said, is your sister—half-sister, anyway.
Is that why Mum left you? I asked.
No, he said, your mother never found out. She left after another affair. I was quite a jack-the-lad back then, you know.
I’d always found my father repellent, but now more than ever.
I went to my mother and told her of my father’s boast.
Dry your tears, she said, smiling broadly: She’s not your sister. He’s not your father.
Ha! Nice twist.
I love a happy ending.
Touche! Cool story.
