    "Mom!" The realization hit them, as they stared at each other with worry on their faces. Never have they been in this kind of mess. Their mother was the main reason why they were into this kind of thing. She was opening up to the man she thought was her husband."I can't believe mom would do this to us. Why did she do that to us?

You haven't been with a woman since your appearance." "You're right. I've not been with anyone since I returned back, but that's the problem. The only woman I was with was the one who came to me.
