I'm not sure what just happened.

Huh. I didn't know that. Maybe it is easier to talk to kids than I thought. It is surreal to see him in person.

Many things are made much simpler if we don't overthink them. Besides, from what I was told, he seems very intelligent. That could explain why he likes you.

It is possible. He is intelligent, he was more interested in looking at the books in my office than playing with toys.

He was in your office? How did that happen?

Victoria came to visit me and she brought him. It is all rather confusing at the moment and I'm not sure whether or not I believe her, but she has informed me that there is a possibility Luke is mine.

I thought you both knew he was your friend's...?

That is what she told me at the beginning, I never disputed it, but now she says she isn't sure. She never thought I would take her back even if she said the kid might be mine, so she tried to make it work with Cooper.

Before you make any rash decisions, please look into a paternity test.

Believe me, I am. That is all I am asking from her at the moment. Well, I did throw my paper weight, which was rather rash, but I apologized for that.

I think that you are handling this as well as anyone could in your situation. Is there anything I can do to help?

Thank you, that helps. Markham, do you think I'm doing the right thing? Would it be selfish to break up this kid's family even if he isn't with his biological father? If he is happy, I feel like I shouldn't ruin it.

We aren't saying anything about breaking up a family. I think you should take things one step at a time, but if in the event that you are a father, taking responsibility is never selfish.

You're sure? On the one hand I feel like I would be ruining his life by telling him that, but on the other hand, it is like I'm lying to him if I don't say anything and if he is my son, I want to spend time with him...I'm getting ahead of myself aren't I?

You are. Decisions are best left when you can make them one at a time with a cool head. You're understandably going through a lot right now. Find air to breathe first.
