But What If She Says Yes?

It was all the fault of his wife thought Daniel as he stood nervously on the doorstep of the rather rundown bungalow. She had bought him a DNA Ancestry test kit for his 50th birthday thinking it would be fun for him to trace his ancestors and create a family tree.

Except it threw up all sorts of questions especially concerning one extremely strong familial link.

Taking a deep breath Daniel knocked for the second time, with only one question on his mind as he watched an elderly lady make her way slowly to the door.

“Are you my mother?”

My first and probably my only attempt at a ‘drabble’ challenged by my blogging pal Margaret for a 100 word Saturday based on this photo she took.

I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.
