Today is your high school class reunion. You meet your best friend after years.

Today is your high school class reunion. You meet your best friend after years. She is devastated.

“I know,” you say, “You’re trying to figure out why I never told you about your son. But I didn’t know anything about him.”

She looks at you, with tears in her eyes.

“I was hoping it was just an ex-boyfriend, but I found out that he’s been living here in town for a year and a half. He’s been trying to get custody of your son and has refused to let me know.”

You swallow hard. You’re afraid to ask her any questions, because you don’t know the truth. You’re scared that you might have to choose between your son and your best friend.
