Twenty Years Later, I Recognise My Younger Self in the Boy
On the Eve of His Wedding, Arthur Accused Martha of Betrayal—Though She Swore Her Loyalty, He Refused to Listen. Two Decades Later, He Met Her Son, a Living Mirror of His Own Youth…
They Shared a Love Straight Out of a Storybook: Passionate, Extraordinary, Enviable. Many Envied Their Bond and Stirred Up Trouble. The Young Couple Were Planning a Wedding That, Sadly, Never Happened.
The Night Before the Big Day, Martha Revealed She Was Pregnant. Instead of Joy, She Faced Arthur’s Fury. He Accused Her of Infidelity, Insisting She Couldn’t Possibly Be Pregnant So Soon. With Chilling Finality, He Told Her He Didn’t Believe a Word—But She Went Ahead and Had the Child.
Friends Called Him a Fool; Everyone Saw How Deeply Martha Loved Him. But Arthur Stood Firm—The Relationship Collapsed, and the Wedding Was Cancelled. He Suggested an Abortion; She Refused. Martha Waited Until the Last Moment for His Apology, But He Never Called.
She Wouldn’t Dial, Either. Arthur Was Certain He Was Right. They Went Their Separate Ways. Martha Faced the Consequences on Her Own. Even When Their Paths Crossed, Arthur Pretended Not to Know Her. He Would Glance Away on the Playground, Determined to Forget.
Martha’s Life Was Hard. Being a Single Mum Was Tough, But She Found Happiness. Her Own Dreams Took a Back Seat as She Devoted Herself to Her Little Angel. She Gave Her All to Ensure Her Son Lacked Nothing: Working Multiple Jobs, Building His Future. Chris Thanked Her—He Was Her Rock and Defender.
He Went to University, Served in the Army, Found a Job. As He Grew, He Stopped Asking About His Father—He Knew the Truth. As a Child, Martha Told Him Stories, But Did He Believe Them? It Was Clear He Did Not.
Chris Was the Image of His Father. At Twenty, He Reminded Martha of the Arthur She’d Fallen For. One Day, Their Paths Crossed: Martha, Arthur, and Chris. The Biological Father Was Struck—The Likeness Impossible to Miss. He Watched in Silence, Unable to Speak.
It Was Three Days Later That Arthur Came to Martha and Asked, “Can You Forgive Me?”
“It happened long ago…” Martha Whispered.
And So, The Tale of ‘Daddy’ Came Alive—For the First Time, Chris Met His Father. Twenty years on, I recognise in the boy the spitting image of my younger self. The night before their
