How Do I Tell Her About You?

100 Words on Saturday - Write Tribe




   Glancing at the patient file, I strolled into the room.  “Hello, I am Dr. Matthews. How can I help you today?” Our eyes met.  I felt instant recognition.  “I desperately wanted to meet you.  You’re my father.”  

          My breath caught, my stomach rushed to my throat.   “You are mistaken.” I quickly contradicted.   “No.  I am Anna’s daughter and...yours.”  Anna.  As if looking in a mirror I recognized my eyes, my nose, and Anna’s sweet smile.  Memories rushed back from that long ago summer.  Joy transformed to panic as I remembered my wife.  How do I tell her about you?
