Review Lesson Two Paraphrase You hear it said that fathers want their sons to be what they feel they cannot themseves be, but I tell you it also works the other way. It’s said that fathers want their sons to realize their unfulfilled dreams, but I say that sons also have expectation of their fathers. It was a wonder to me they’d want to be seen with such a windbay. I felt surprised that they were willing to be seen together with such a guy who is talktive and nosiy. For the first time I knew that I was the son of my father. He was a story teller as I was to be. It was the first time for me to realize that we are father and son. He was a born story teller, which I became to many years later.

Sometimes he’d stay away for weeks, mother working to keep us fed, and then home he’d come bringing, let’s say, a hm. He’d got it from some farmer friend. He’d slap it on the table in the kitchen. “you bet I’m going to see that my kids have something to eat,” he’d say, and mother would just stand somiling at him. She’d never sa a word about all the weeks he’d been away, not leaving us a cent for food. Once I heard her speaking to a woman in our street. Maybe the woman had dared to sympathize with her. “oh,” she said, “its all right. Life is never dull when my man is about.” Lesson Three
