Chapter 10 - Susan, he is...

"Susan", Megan started nervously, "I know this is weird but... do you see anything about this man that seems familiar to you?" She asked.

Susan replied, "Yeah. He looks like someone I know, but I can't pinpoint who this person is in my life and what looks similar to that person". Susan wasn't lying about him looking familiar. It was just that that person wasn't just in her life.

Megan laughed look at her cute, confused expression, then she coughed to keep things serious again. She handed Susan the mirror in her hand and made a gesture that said she should look in the mirror. Susan looked at her with a look that said 'I know I'm beautiful, so why are you giving a mirror to check myself out?'. Mother Susan saw that and told her to just look in the mirror. Susan looked at the mirror and said, "Ohhhhhhhhh!!!!!! This is the face that looks similar to this mister here. Look aunty, look Eric. It's me!!!". Susan exclaimed excitedly. Then her mouth dropped in shock. She looked at the mirror, then the mysterious man, then back and forth.

When she announced that the man looked like her excitedly, the other three - Eric, Mother Eric, and the mysterious man - were shocked that she'd be happy, but when her expression turned into shock, they all looked at each other and nodded with the same thought in their head 'Ah ah! There it is! That should be the reaction'.

Mother Eric hit Eric on his arm hinting at him to stepped forward and hold Susan when she saw her trembling and almost falling down from shock. Then she guided them to a couch while patting Susan on her back to comfort her. After sitting down, Susan collected the glass of water Eric passed her and sipped it slowly while trying to get her thoughts together. She knew that the mysterious man was related to her in a very intimate way because he wouldn't be here in this house if he wasn't related to her and judging from their reaction and their way of showing her that she was the one who looks similar to the mysterious man, He must be maybe her uncle or her...

Susan didn't dare to think further but Megan seemed to have other plans for her. Without wasting time, Mother Eric busted her bubble by saying exactly what she didn't dare to think or acknowledge, "He is your father sweetie" Megan said softly but this was a huge explosion in Susan's head.
