"Is he yours?"
It took me a minute to decide how to answer. "Yes! Yes, he's mine," I said.
"Oh. What about the dad, is he in the picture?" We'd been sitting together in Sociology every day for a few weeks now, and I was pretty sure the guy asking had a thing for me and really only wanted to know if I was available.
I paused for far longer than was comfortable for either of us, not sure how to answer this question either. Finally: "Well, it's complicated, but no, he's not."
I neglected to tell him that I wasn't really in the picture, either.
