The front door knocked, I wasn't expecting anyone, so I was only dressed in a T-shirt and shorts. I opened the door to be faced by a youngish looking woman.
"Yes? I asked.
"Are you Graham Michael Young?" She asked.
Well, I am, but why would she want to know?
"Who wants to know."
"This is difficult, look, can I come in and explain, I know that you are Graham, I have tracked you down."
I stood back and held the door open, she stepped in.
"Is there somewhere we can talk?" she asked, "somewhere private, and I can explain."
"There is no one else here," I said, "so we can sit in the lounge if you like. Would you like a drink?"
"A glass of water would be nice, please, yes," she said.
"Right, you sit here and I will go and get you some water."
In the kitchen I briefly ran the tap and then filled a glass and took it back to her before sitting opposite her on my sofa.
She had an air of familiarity about her, she had short dark hair, and was probably about five four, something like that, and around a size ten, maybe twelve, about seven stone or so. She was wearing a hoodie top and a short skirt and trainers.
"So then, what is your name and what is all this about?" I asked.
My name is Mary Lorna Stephens," she said, "I am from Wakefield, although my family is originally from here in Shipley."
"Okay," I said.
"I think you knew my Grandmother, Lorna Abbott, actually, I know that you knew her."
Well, that was a blast from years ago. I had briefly gone out with a girl called Lorna, but then one summer she went to stay with her auntie down in Bournemouth and I didn't see her for months. No such thing as mobile phones back then, so we lost touch. When she eventually came back to Shipley she was very busy helping her mum who had given birth to her new baby sister.
"Oh crumbs, yes, we went out for a while, then she went away and we lost touch."
"Yes. Did you know why she went away?"
"No, she just said one day that she was going to stay with her aunt. When she came back she was very busy with her new baby sister and had no time with me, so we kind of drifted apart."
"That wasn't her sister, that was my Mum. My Mum is your daughter. She went away because you got her pregnant."
"What? Pregnant, why the hell didn't she say?" This had to be a scam, I was sure of it.
"I don't know why she didn't say anything. I think she was five months pregnant before she realised and told her Mum, and it was too late to do anything about it then, so her Mum sent her to a relative and then pretended the baby was hers when she got back."
"That is absolute madness."
"You were both very young."
"But still."
"So you are my granddad. Hello."
"Now I remember more, you do look so much like my Lorna that I went out with. Where is she, I would love to go and see her." Perhaps her physical familiarity was part of the scam.
"She died last year, breast cancer."
"Oh fuck."
"She told me a lot about you, she did love you, you should know that."
I was flummoxed. I had a daughter that I didn't know about. Pretty sure I was about to be scammed.
"What about your Mum, my daughter, I should meet her, this is madness."
"She doesn't want to."
"Why?"
"Because she knows that you did nothing wrong, but feels there is nothing to gain by meeting you."
"I disagree, I have missed so much, I didn't even know she existed."
"She knew about you, she knew you were married and had children. She doesn't want to intrude."
"I am not married any more, my children have left home, and have their own children and she wouldn't intrude."
"She doesn't care, her life is on an even keel, she is a little fragile, my Dad was a bit of an arse, and she doesn't want to rock her applecart."
I sat back and just tried to think. I remembered going to a local park and how Lorna and I had done it for the first time. We had used a condom that I had bought from a vending machine in a local pub toilet. Lorna hadn't been my first, but I had been her first. We had shagged every time we could after that, usually in the back seat of my car parked up in a farmers field entrance in some country lane, or once even behind a Chinese Restaurant and were almost caught by one of the waiters coming out for a smoke.
"You're quiet," she said.
"I don't understand, we always used condoms, Lorna wasn't on the pill."
"Are you saying Mum wasn't yours?" She looked angry.
"God no, nothing like that, I just don't understand how it could have happened is all, I thought we were being careful."
"Well, it seems obviously not. Are you going to ask for a DNA test?" She still looked angry.
"God no, Lorna and I were tight, we didn't cheat. If she got pregnant when she was going out with me, then I am the reason, I have no doubt about that, I just don't understand how." Let me see how he scam plays out.
And for the life of me I couldn't think how, we really did use condoms all the time. I mean I know the ones in the pub were standard issue, later on I managed to buy XL condoms when I wasn't too embarrassed anymore to go into a chemist and ask for them, and then later girlfriends were all on the pill. But still, we always made sure it was on when I went in, so to speak, and still on when I came out.
"Oh."
"Oh?"
"Well, I have just remembered something?"
"Yes?"
"Well, in the early days, before we had intercourse."
"Before you fucked?"
"Er, yes, before we shagged, we used to fool around, you know?"
