Upside Down
Deland asked Carol about his birth father. She wasn’t expecting that Deland would be asking this. However, maintaining her composure she tells Deland about his dark past. And the words which poured out of her mouth turned Deland’s life upside down.
It’s Him
Carol felt that amongst all the others, Deland was someone who deserved to know who his father was. She told Deland that his father’s name is Sherman Smith. Deland couldn’t believe this. Sherman, was his mentor, the man who has closely followed his game. This was impossible.
Speechless
Deland stood speechless. Sherman had been with him for nearly 28 years now. He had been training him at football. Rather it was him who made Deland a football master. All this while he was with his biological father and neither of them knew about this.
Joining Links
It took Deland a lot of time to wrap his head around his reality. This was one odd of a coincidence to even happen. Like your mentor turns out to be your birth father and none knows this. This was just too good to be true. But, then Deland started to join some links…
Similar
He recalled how fellow players would often say that he and Sherman would look alike. Even their way of speaking and walking was a lot similar. While then he always laughed it off, but now it all was making sense. Deland couldn’t wait any longer to break this news to Sherman.
Meet Up
Deland dialed Sherman’s number. As he spilled the truth from his mouth, Sherman was blown away. It was very hard for him to believe this fact. But when Carol was concerned, he did not forget anything. It was a piece of traumatizing news but was the core reality. The duo decided to meet and cherish the moment.
