Time Flies
Time passed by and Carrol matured into a young lady. She got married to a man of her choice and bid goodbye to her father’s home. However, her affection for her parents and especially for her father did not lessen a bit. She continued frequenting her mother’s house even after her marriage. Fortunately, her husband and her in-laws never stopped her from visiting her parents’ home. Even though the lady had another man in her life, her father was still the world’s best man for her and she still was sharing her every secret with her father.
Post Marriage
Even after her marriage, the woman was still very much a part of the home. Nothing had changed neither the house nor the behavior of her parents. However, there was one change that had come in her father. Her father prohibited her and her siblings for that matter from touching one of the drawers that was attached to his desk. Though no one dared to touch the drawer, Carrol always felt drawn towards that. She thought it to be related to the uncanny behavior of her father.
Another Jump
The time took another leap and Carrol who once was a newlywed wife turned into a 60-year-old lady. Now Carrol had even a larger family with children and grandchildren. The woman had gone too busy to take care of her family. Her whole time got consumed by her own family and so she was hardly left with any time to meet her parents. However, soon the time was about to take another turn. Carrol was going to get back to her parents’ house only to discover the unexpected truth about her father.
Not A Regular One
