Everything I expected from a person whom I have never seen before was more than a full second of eye contact. I figured it would be enough to make up my mind as I definately had the right to be partially judgemental in this all too complex situation.
The sun was long down and now a strangers car door was open and with my hand on the handle. If I said "hello" it was not in words but in self-defense mode brought upon by thoughts of everything that could go wrong now and in the next few hours. What could go wrong in a few hours when it's all spent talking to a stranger? Isnt't conversation all just words? It had to be their meanings that was going to define why I had come here.
We had arrived at a local sit-down type establishment that serves drinks of all types. I chose the type that would only refresh my thirst not dilute or stretch meanings. We are conversing and I am studying this persons face because I feel facial movements can clear up any confusion to what is going on.
All the things we discussed, reviewed and agreed to were everything that made a sensible character what they would portray from far away. How did I unpack twenty-two years into eight hours? How did they do the same?
I'd felt as I had everything to live for from now on as I closed the car door eight hours later. I'd managed to get everything across that needed to be said. We both defined a new beginning.
I had met my father for the first time in my life.

wow.
I got goose bumps; reading that last sentence.
I never met my father. He never had any concern to contact me over the years. So I don't know how I would feel in this situation. I'm proud of you for this accomplishment.
Keep me posted.
ps, it's great to see you posting more(again) ;)
