The Tiberius J. Swann Education Facility

Who: Wesley and Mandy.
Where: her room in the BGH
When: afternoon
What: Wesley finally realises...

Wesley had loved his gift from Mandy because it had brought back lots of memories of his younger days when the records had been brought out, but then the more he listened to Papa Don’t Preach, as requested by his daughter, the more the penny began to drop. It was one of those pennies that had been thrown from a great height, building speed and becoming impossibly fast until it could crack the skull of the person standing below. Wesley happened to be that person.

There was a part of him that really didn’t believe it. Mandy was a lesbian, how could she be pregnant? After dreading addressing it he gave Mandy some time and space to breathe, letting her choose if she wanted to come down or stay up there. The exchanged messages finally got through to her and he found himself infront of his daughter’s door, about to knock but finding that a formality not worth doing. He stepped into her room like a man stepping into a room at a wake, silent and nervous, but respectful.

“Got room for an old man?”
