Weekend Story-Perspective
October 12, 2026
Dear Dad,
Everything is going well here at college this semester, so you can stop worrying. I am very, very happy now. . . you would love Ichabod. He is a wonderful, wonderful man and our first three months of marriage have been blissful.
And more good news Dad. The drug rehab program we are both in just told us that the twins that are due soon will not be addicted at birth.
Having read this, her father then turned the page with trepidation. On the other side of the note, it said:
Now, Dad, there actually is no Ichabod. I’m not married nor pregnant. And I haven’t ever abused drugs. But I did get a “D” in chemistry, so keep things in perspective!
