Tyler plucked up the courage to ring the doorbell. His dad answered the door. Tyler was suddenly speechless, his chest was so tight it felt like his lungs were being crushed and there were butterflies in his tummy.
Can I help you said the middle aged man at the door. He had short brown hair greying at the temples and the same eyes as Tyler.
Er yeah are you Henry Hughes stammered Tyler barely able to get the words out
Yeah, whose asking?
My name is Tyler Lewis. I think you used to know my mum Sally Lewis. You were students together
Right, maybe we were so what?
Well I think you're my dad
What spluttered Mr Hughes is this some kind of joke?
No, it's not. I was born in 2001 just a few months after you both graduated. My mum told her cousin that my dad was called Henry Hughes.
Dad who is it? A small boy squeezed past his dad and stood staring at Tyler
Not now Sebastian. I'll be there in a minute
Look, I don't know what you've been told but I can't help you. I'm sorry said Mr Hughes
But your my dad. You have to be protested Tyler
The man hustled the young boy inside and closed the door on Tyler
