My heart was racing, beating so fast I could hear it. My dad was here. The man I had never met, the man I never knew. "Why?". I whispered.

"I-I'm not ready to face him". I had mixed emotions. I was angry but I was also sad. He didn't want me, couldn't bare to look at me because I reminded him of my mom.

"So he just turned up at your parents house?".

"My dads been in contact with him for a few weeks. That's why he wanted to see me earlier but I had no idea about tonight".
