The world was suddenly alive with color. David practically leaped from his chair, a shout of pure glee escaping his lips. He’d just discovered that the sweet, kind couple he'd always known were not his biological parents. It was a shock, a surprise, and the news had left him feeling…buoyant, to say the least. He needed to *tell* someone, anyone! He grabbed his car keys and practically sprinted out the door, eager to share the incredible news. He didn’t know where he was going, but he was certain he'd find someone to share the news with. He began humming a ridiculous tune, a smile so wide it hurt.
