did i miss something?

Revisado: 08-21-06

I listened to this book, but was confused when it abruptly ended. There is a spoiler ahead, so only read if you know the basic plot...

So Will meets Rachel, and lies by saying that Marcus is his son. I was waiting for the eventual confrontation when the truth came out, but somehow it never caught up with him, never came to light despite the fact that their "sons" become best friends, as do Rachel and Marcus' real mother Fiona. huh?!? I really don't think I missed anything; I listened to it straight through. I even went back through it.

Can someone explain, I know this is abridged, but could they really have cut out such a huge part of the story? Or is it really possible that it's not addressed in the book? Marcus even mentions about his real father to Rachel's son and in front of Will, and there is no astonishment or recognition from Rachel's son nor embarrassment on Will's part.

Totally confused.

Otherwise "About a Boy" has a good reader, interesting and witty story, but like I said -- confusing, unresolved and abrupt ending, like they slapped on a "The End" three quarters through.
