My time is my own and I feel so alone

My favorite friend told me about the April Fools prank his brother played on him.

"He told me that my menopausal mother accidentally got pregnant. And that I would have to raise it because they're busy with the business and they give me a lot of money. "Dad is so pissed," he told me. I almost flipped my car on Bethany Home Road."

He took a deep breath. "I had to go to church the next day because the first thing I thought was that I hope it's my mother's. She's done nothing to deserve that!" he said, gripping his steering wheel, grimacing.
