Probable Sons

'Probable Sons' is a cautionary fable that revolves around the timeless story of the prodigal son from the Bible. A dignified middle-aged man finds himself as the sole surviving relative of a young girl and is obligated to take her under his roof. Initially, he is filled with dread at the thought of having a child in his home and reluctantly performs his duty as her guardian. However, as the story progresses, he is moved by her unshakable faith in scripture and her constant retelling of Biblical tales. The title, «Probable Sons,» is derived from the child's mispronunciation of «prodigal», a recurring theme that permeates throughout the narrative with unwavering intensity.
