Chapter 1981
Suddenly, it dawned on Wayne. Maybe this was a divine chance to right his own wrongs, to rescue his
past self by saving this boy
“Why can’t you be my dad?” The boy sobbed, clinging onto Wayne
Together, they wandered around the small town for the entire day
As the afternoon rolled in, the boy’s emotions gradually stabilized.
“Sir, thank you for comforting me and for sharing your stories with me. I’ve thought about it, and I want
to be brave and strong like you I want to find out who I am,
without them!”
Wayne looked at him, worried. “What will you do if she hurt you again when you return?’e2
Tl call the police!”

The boy nodded vigorously. “Sir, you’ve been with me all day. Your wife must be worried. You should go
back”
Wayne sighed, staring at his shoes. “She’s still mad at me. Dam, I forgot to talk with her during lunch…”
Pulling out his cell phone, he planned to call Rosalynn. But, with a slip of his hand, the phone plunged
into the lake.
He had promised Rosalynn to check in and now he had lost track of time. Without a second thought, he
dove into the murky lake after his phone. When Wayne scrambled back onto the shore, his phone was
gone
And so was the boy
Completely drenched and feeling miserable, Wayne was about to check if he had spare clothes in his
car when a cry of pain echoed through the air The voice was unmistakably the boy’s
Rushing towards the sound, he found a man in a nearby store, holding the boy by his collar, and
slapping him repeatedly
Without hesitation, Wayne landed a powerful kick on the man. He was trained, and the man was
caught off guard.
He didn’t have a chance to dodge as Wayne’s fists rained down on him.
Pulled away by the crowd, Wayne watched as the man, bloodied and cowering in a comer, seemed to
be shouting at him.
The boy, huddled in a corner, was crying out, begging Wayne to stop hurting his dad.
Waynes ears were ringing.
It took him a moment to realize that the kid being beaten was not the boy he had spent the day with,
but a complete strange girl

The man clutched his bleeding nose, crying out to the gathering crowd.
“I was disciplining my own damn kid, and this lunatic just comes in and beat me up!”
“Old Joe, not to blame you, but you were hitting the kid pretty hard. Even passers-by couldn’t stand it
“Exactly! Look at the kid’s face.”
After a commotion, Wayne was taken away by the arriving police officer.
The officer quickly recognized him. Shocked, he suggested, “Mr. Silverman, you need someone to bail
you out. Do you have a cell phone?” Drenched from head to toe, Wayne had nowhere to keep a phone.
He shook his head
The officer promptly said, “No worries What’s your wife’s number? Fil reach out to her for you!”
