Our Relationship is a Fiction
We are not married, and the kids don’t share my last name.
We support each other, but things are separate,
Just last night the social worker asked my relationship, and after much hesitation we told her I am a friend of the family.
Then the boy I treat like a son hugged me goodbye as I left.
Our relationship is a fiction, but as I am the family writer, it is up to me to ensure it is a love story.
