My fiancée Victoria and I love each other very much. At this point we are in our twenties. We have been friends since 4th grade, and by 6th grade we were already dating. And we had our son early.
Obviously, this wasn’t what our parents expected from us at all. But what happened, happened. And it wasn’t our son’s fault, that’s for sure. He is a true treasure for us! As of today our son is three years old. We have our own place to live and I decided to marry my beloved Victoria.
We invited about a hundred people to the wedding. And most of them were my relatives from different parts of the country. Although we do not communicate with them closely, but on such an occasion, it is a sin not to get together.
From the moment we told everyone about the upcoming event, my mother began to convince us that it was better not to take my son with us to the party, but to leave him with a babysitter.
You have to think about his well-being, his condition, not to strain anyone with him. Everyone wants to relax and have fun. And watching the baby is a hassle. You won’t have time for that. He’s still small and doesn’t understand anything.
Only I and my future wife think that my son must be present at such a significant event in our lives. This moment will never happen again. My aunt, my mother’s sister, has agreed to look after my son while the celebration takes place. So we supposedly have nothing to worry about. And the whole family will be calm and relaxed.
Only my mother behaves strangely, walking around and grumbling that my son can’t be at the wedding. After a while I realized the reason why she does not want to see her grandson at our wedding and resists it with all her might.
As it turned out, my parents had made a decision not to tell anyone about our child. And now they don’t know how to explain to the whole family the reason for their behavior and for having an adult grandchild. They are ashamed that the truth will be revealed at the wedding.
She says it would be embarrassing for her – everyone would discuss my relationship with Victoria. Few people give birth at such a young age. They’ll start laughing. There’s no need to reveal this secret.
Most likely, my mother is more concerned about the fact that the relatives will find out about the deception. And there’s no hiding from this shame. Anyway, they were in touch with some distant relative from time to time, but they did not confess to anything. The mystery is shrouded in darkness.
I was really mad at her. And she was mad at me. Kept telling me there was no need to take the baby. I refuse to believe that this is even possible. A very unpleasant residue on my soul. She put her image above her own grandchild.
Now I feel uncomfortable with the fact that it makes me feel as if we really became parents illegally. And it shouldn’t be shown to the public. We have discussed this situation with the parents several times, but my decision remains the same. After all, they insist on their own.
The people closest to us did not support us. My mother keeps telling me that I will stop being her son if I don’t listen. I never thought that would happen to me in my life.
