Overwhelmed

8/13/2023

 
Miho turned to Dominic, ​
Picture
"So, it would seem...that Baron is your long lost son."
Picture
Picture
"I'm so sorry, that I had mistakenly assumed that his parents had both been killed in the attack."
Picture
"By taking Baron home with me that day, I deprived you of your son all these years....and him of his father."
Picture
The enormity of the situation had hit her hard.  "I am so sorry....."
Picture
Dominic tried to comfort her. "Don't think like that. You saved his life. I didn't return for several weeks, and if you hadn't found him that day, he'd surely have died there inside the chest under the rubble. So you saved his life."
Picture
Picture
"But I didn't even try searching to see if the baby had any surviving family or relatives." Miho continued.
Picture
"You have to stop thinking like this.  It's totally understandable with the horrific scene you faced, that you'd assume both his parents had been killed. But you saved my son's life.

​Yes, I grieved his loss, and he grew up never knowing who his real parents were.  But that's all in the past now."
Picture
"It's a miracle, after all this time, to discover that my son is still alive."
Picture
"And that he was raised to become such a wonderful young man, by the very woman I love."
Picture
Baron had remained silent, in shock at the news...and got up....
Picture
Picture
Miho turned to her son, "Baron, my love, this is your father."
Picture
"Dominic is your father..... and....you are his son."
Picture
Naomi sat in silence watching the drama unfold.
Picture
Baron approached the chest to take a look for himself.
Picture
"Baron, you know this is the chest I found you in so long ago."
Picture
"When you were little you always loved hearing the story about how I found and rescued you. And we always wondered what the initials A and D stood for."
Picture
"Now it turns out that the chest I found you in belonged to Dominic and his wife."
Picture
"He and his wife Amelia were your real parents."
Picture
It all seemed too much to take in.   Then Dominic reached out to Baron, "I think we need to talk."
Picture
Baron was lost for words.
Picture
Picture
"Come take a walk with me.."

I cannot even imagine how overwhelmed Baron must feel. He just got over a physical injury and how he has learned the truth about his birth. Of course, Miho and Dominic must be in shock also.

I am so enjoying this story!
