Charlie's Heart: MC Romance (Burning Bastards MC Book 3) (14 page)

So…before I get into the crux of the story, I guess I should begin where all stories begin—the birth of the subject. And since the subject of this story is myself, we shall begin there. However, I must first assure you that I have no remembrance of 1958, which was the year of my birth.

My earliest recollection of reality didn't come to me until about 1961. At three years old, and being born into a somewhat reclusive and scattered family, as far as I can recall I was a happy child. But at the age of three or four years old, how would I really know one way or the other since I had nothing else to compare it to at the time. It was possibly about the time of life when I realized I was different in some ways, compared to other kids my age. Most kids in my age group had a stable family life, and they lived at home with a mother and father, but I never had a concept of that, because the way things were when I was a child, my grandfather had played the role of the father figure in my life. While other kids saw it as odd, it was normal to me, or the only normal I knew at the time.

I was born to a single mother, because my father had decided to leave before I was born, and since it was his choice to do so, he seems to be pretty much irrelevant to any events in my life. I do have a recollection of him in the sense of when my mother and my grandparents talked about him, they referred to him as "Hardhead" or our "Sperm Donor". And the only connection we had to him was through his parents, who would show up once a year or so to visit my brother, not necessarily to visit me. From what I was told, they labored under the illusion that I possibly wasn't his kid, so they never claimed me as one of their grandchildren. I did meet my sperm donor for the first time when I was about thirty-four years old, and other than me looking somewhat like him, that was the extent of the connection with him. It seems I was unlucky enough to get his looks, but my brother was unlucky enough to get his piss poor attitude and mentality as a human being. I've never had any dealings with the man—I don't know him—and have no wishes to know him. Therefore, I have no feeling good or bad for him. He could die tomorrow, and I wouldn't shed a tear over his death.
