Another Reason to Cry

Nobody Ever Told Us

Present

Alise gets up the next morning with one thing in mind.

For as long as she can remember, she's never known the identity of her father. After last night's possible discovery, the gears in her mind have been turning.

Is it possible that Axl Rose could be her father?

Truthfully, she never considered that she even had a father. Alise never asked her mother. She simply chalked it up to adoption or surrogacy.

Never before had Alise felt this burning desire to know about her father. Her paternity never really mattered to her before now. But now that she really thought about it, her mother had never mentioned her father or a potential father.

Sure, her mom had dated a few guys and been married and divorced, but none of those guys were her father. Alise wasn't bothered by it. She never gave it a second thought.

But what makes her so curious now, especially after years of not giving a shit, is the fact that she never once considered that she had a father. Nor had she before considered her father could potentially be Axl Rose.

The realisation that Axl Rose could potentially be her father sends her head spinning. In a good way.

Still, her theory is unconfirmed.

Alise, realising this, runs a hand down her face and reaches for the photo album in the drawer of her bedside table. She needs to look into it a little more.
