Epilogue
Kevin and Claire sat in the office. Kevin was clutching Claire’s hand as they sat and waited. She was fifteen minutes late and Claire and Kevin were wondering if she was going to show up at all. That was when the door opened and a tall blond walked through the door with a small boy holding her hand.
Kevin watched as the small boy looked up at his mother and asked, "Is that him?"
"Yes, Kevin, that is your father." Sam said.
Kevin was overwhelmed with emotion as he looked at a miniature version of himself. His son had his dark hair and green eyes. Kevin felt like he was looking at himself as a young boy. The young boy walked up to Kevin and just stood there looking at him.
"Why are you crying daddy?" The young boy asked.
Kevin took the young boy in his arms and said, "Because I have waited so long for this day Kevin."
"You’re supposed to be happy to see me, not sad." The boy said.
"These are tears of happiness son… tears of happiness." Kevin said as he held the boy tight.
Claire watched her husband and his son embrace through tears. It had taken Claire a year to convince Kevin that he needed to meet his son. Claire was not sure what finally pushed Kevin into changing his mind. She did suspect the announcement that she was two months pregnant had something to do with Kevin making his decision.
