Fatherhood
Fatherhood can begin and end in an instant, but in that instant one man calls another man “father”.
A good father is a godfather. It’s a temporary assignment. There is no biological connection, nor any need for one.

Unless, of course, it happens twice, in which case the responsibility is mine.
