Boy (8) Meets Newborn Sister - After He Says This, Dad Files For Divorce

The air was thick with tension as the eight-year-old Tommy entered the hospital room. His parents had just welcomed a new addition to the family, a tiny bundle of joy wrapped in a white blanket. But what he said next stunned everyone in the room, especially his father.

In the aftermath of that moment, Tommy's father would file for divorce, setting in motion a series of events that would change their lives forever...

Tommy’s father couldn’t believe what he was hearing! Did Tommy just really say that, or was he hearing things after the long night of the birth of his daughter? He had suspicions before this, and now he was sure of it! Their future was at stake, to say the least…

Tommy’s father looked at his unsuspecting wife, doubting every little amount of love he had ever given her! He couldn’t believe it, and to think that his innocent son Tommy knew even more about it made it even worse! She was never the same woman for him after that day.

After Tommy’s father was sure of what Tommy had said, he knew there was no other way than to divorce his wife and Tommy’s mother. He knew the devastation it meant for Tommy and his newborn, but so would a continued marriage be! 

But what did Tommy say? Why was it so terribly upsetting for his father, and what was Tommy’s mother hiding from his father? 

Despite the unending joy that a new birth brings, Tommy's father, Henry, was soon preoccupied with other things than his newborn daughter. Because Tommy's welcoming of his sister confirmed a suspicion he had for a long time about his wife, Andrea. Henry couldn't help but look at his wife with disgust.

But Henry was a sensible man. In his years as a local politician, he had long since discovered that there was nothing worse than jumping to conclusions, and he wanted to collect evidence against his wife first. But for now, there was no time for that; after all, she was recovering from childbirth. Although the first piece of evidence would not be long in coming.

After all the checks had been carried out on his new daughter, and she appeared to be a very healthy girl, Henry could start thinking about his next steps. He started by taking Tommy home so he could finally rest from the long day of his little sister's birth. Henry now had the perfect opportunity to ask Tommy what exactly he was referring to just before…

The father and son sat in the car together. Henry wanted to ask his son more about what he had said, so he started cautiously. ''Are you proud of mommy?'' Tommy nodded affirmatively since he was almost unable to talk out of fatigue from the long night. Then Henry slyly asked: "But you're not always proud of mommy, are you?"

Tommy looked questioningly at his father, then looked down at his feet. Tommy clearly wanted to say something but didn't seem to dare. Henry told his son to always be honest, but Tommy bit his tongue and fell asleep soon after. This wasn't going to work... Henry needed a different strategy.

Although Henry himself was also very tired and could sleep on the couch for an hour, his rest was quickly disturbed. He was called by the hospital because his wife Andrea had asked about him. Henry asked if he should be concerned, but the doctor said nothing was wrong. Andrea had her own reason for this…

Andrea had also heard what Tommy said when he welcomed his new sister, so she wanted to make sure she could nip Henry's suspicions in the bud. Calling him was the first step. Crafty as she was, she had a clear tactic in mind that Henry had fallen for before…

As soon as Henry entered and hesitantly approached Andrea, Andrea began her way of captivating him. She acted extremely motherly as she stroked his forehead and asked him how his work was going. Henry gruffly replied that he had been out of work because of the birth. Andrea's answer surprised him.

Because Andrea told him she thought it was more important, he went back to work rather than him looking after Tommy. She added that, because he was such a fantastic politician, the city council could not do without him. But Henry only heard one thing: Andrea didn't want him to spend time with Tommy, so her secret could go undiscovered!

But Henry played along. He said, without looking at her, that he was indeed going back to work soon and that she was right. Andrea acted satisfied, as if she had everything under control. Henry couldn't stand her but didn't want to show it. He knew inside that a divorce was inevitable, and his heart broke.

To keep up appearances, Henry actually went to his office. He had put himself forward as the new chairman and must, therefore, actually show his face a lot. However, he had taken Tommy to the office and had his assistant look after him. Tommy was rested this time, and ready to talk…

Henry's assistant Julia was excellent with children and took him to play at the park. However, Henry had not yet had the chance to inform Julia about the suspicions he had, so Julia was unaware of anything. That would soon change, as she was capable of more than he knew.

For Henry had tremendous faith in Julia's sincerity. He knew that if he shared his concerns and suspicions, she would be able to understand them without judging him. Unfortunately, Henry didn't know that Julia already knew who Andrea was and that she knew her better than he would have liked.

As soon as Julia came back from the park, Henry took her aside. He didn't tell her everything, but he told her he would like it if she asked him why he said something so "crazy" when he first saw his sister. Julia immediately agreed. Henry responded happily to her cooperation but found it odd that she asked nothing more.
