Chapter 22

Flashback

Sitting with my back against a tree. I wipe the tears away and look at my scraped knee. I'm crying cos it hurts but it's not the only reason I'm crying.

"What's wrong Lee-Lee? Did you get hurt?" someone asks and I look up to see who it is.

I look up in shock cos it's a man but the man just looks like my daddy.

I frown, "daddy?"

The stranger shakes his head and bends down in front of me. "I'm sorry Lee-Lee but I'm not your daddy."

I don't understand, "but you look like my Daddy, sir."

Stranger nods, "I sure do, don't I?"

I nod but then shake my head, "you're not my daddy cos you talk funny."

Stranger smiles at me, "yeah I do talk funny. I come from up north. I only came here to visit you."

My eyes widen, "visit me? Why?"

"Can I ask you a question before I tell you why?" I nod and he asks, "Did your Daddy ever tell you that he has a brother?"

I nod, "yes but he told me he lived far away."

Stranger nods, "well I'm your daddy's brother. I'm your uncle."

I frown, "his brother? My friend Carol Anne has two brothers but Owen and Wayne don't look the same. Wayne's older than Owen. But you and my daddy look the same."

He sighs, "Well you're daddy and I are twins. You know what twins are?"

I nod, "you have the same birthday."

He nods, "yes and we're special twins cos we're identical. Identical means we look the same."

I nod, "okay you look those girls on TV, sister, sister only you are boys. So you are Brother, brother."

He laughs and nods, "yes we're like them but we're boys."

I nod cos I understand now. I remember something, "you called me Lee-Lee only Daddy use to call me Lee-Lee. But he dead now."

My uncle touches my hand and says, "Yes he's dead and so is your mommy. How does it make you feel?"

"I feel sad." I say.

"Well don't be sad they're at peace now. Do you want to know a secret?" he asks.

I smile and nod, "I'm the one who first called you Lee-Lee when you were a baby."

"You saw me when I was a baby?" I ask.

He nods, "yes and you were a beautiful baby. You are still beautiful. Anyway, when you saw me and your daddy together you didn't know what was going on."

I then hear someone calling my name, "Alicia! Alicia!" it sounds like Roy and an older boy.

My uncle looks around and looks sad, "they're calling you. Well I have to go then."

He gets up but I ask him, "What's your name sir?"

"Michael." He says.

I nod, "Uncle Michael."

He smiles, "you don't have to call me Uncle Michael. Just call me Michael."

End of Flashback

~~~~~~~~~~

I finally say, "Michael."

I take good look at him and I can see the years have treated him well. The expensive suit he was wearing had me internally rolling my eyes. However, I can't help but think that if my father was still alive he would look like this.
