   "He's my son." I said as I started walking as Hayley stood frozen in place shocked at the revelation before she quickly shook off the shock and quickened her pace to catch up to me.

   "Marcellus was born a mixed child in a time when that was looked down upon right here in Louisiana." I said as we sat down at a bench as Hayley leaned close to listen to my story.
