My bedroom
I thank the Almighty for gifting us Harold – a prodigy for a son. The child is so very different from other ****. He is sensitive and I ** he might be hurt easily. He is a model of goodness and intelligence. I really do not understand ‘ mysterious ways. Here he gifts me with a prodigy and there my profession is that of a boxer. What will happen the day my Harold finds out what his father actually does? It will break his heart. I and my wife are passing through turmoil everyday keeping the identity of my profession away from our son. No! It will be impossible to hide it from Harold as he grows up. Moreover he is an avid reader and the news of my bouts will not escape his eyes. His head will hang in shame once he finds out that his father is 'Young Porky‘.
I will give up boxing. So what if I am the proud professor of a left ***? My son is more important to me. I will find some respectable job soon. I cannot see my Harold hurt and ashamed because of his father‘ profession.
