Chapter 11 - SOPHIE ASKED IF HER DADDY WAS STILL HER DADDYThis question hurt the most.
Sophie overheard adults talking.
She came to me.
“Grandpa?”
“Yes?”
“Is Daddy not your son?”
I sat beside her.
“Daddy is my son.”
“But the test?”
Children always find the sharpest point.
“The test says I didn’t help make him biologically.”
She frowned.
“Then who did?”
“A man named Adrian.”
“Is Adrian Daddy’s daddy?”
“Biologically, yes.”
“Are you Daddy’s daddy?”
I swallowed.
“Yes.”
She looked frustrated.
“Both?”
“Yes.”
She thought.
Then:
“That’s weird.”
Correct.
Then:
“Am I still your granddaughter?”
“Yes.”
“No test?”
I smiled sadly.
“No test needed.”
She nodded.
Good.
