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.

"My mom didn't say much. She asked us to dinner but there's no pressure". He took my hand in his. "We don't have to go".

"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".
