FOUND YOU

I’m almost near our house when I noticed a luxury car in front of our house.

My eyebrows furrowed.

Do we have a visitor?

Who might that be?

 It was not as if it’s impossible for us to have a rich visitor. My family is kind of rich, I mean my parents has a stable job, we can have the material things that we want. We also have a car but not as expensive as that car.

I just shake my head as I was almost in our house.

What’s the big deal Alli? Why are you that curious?! I scolded myself.

I was holding the doorknob when I suddenly felt nervous. This was so weird! Why I am getting nervous? Did something happen?

I slowly open the door. When I went in, I got all the people’s attention. My mom, dad and my young bother was looking at me. They look shocked!

Wait?! Why do they look so nervous? What is happening? I then looked at our visitor. I don’t know who they were. They look like a couple, younger couple than my mom and dad. They also look on my direction. They smiled at me but tears were visible on their eyes.

 What is really happening?!

Can somebody tell me?!

Why my heart keeps on beating crazily?!

"Alli” my mom called me.

I went to my parents to greet them and give them a kiss.

“Mom, it looks like you have a visitor.” I just said.

My mom just smiled at me but sadness was visible in her eyes.

“Alli we have a confession to make. Listen to us and try to understand everything that we were about tell you.” My mom said in a serious tone..

I saw that their eyes were all teary. There actions make me more anxious. What is really happening? Why are their eyes teary? Did someone died?

“What is really happening? I’m so confused! And who are these people?” I said almost hysterical.

"A-alli they are your b-biological parents.” My mom softly confessed.

My eyes widen and tears flowed from my eyes. I look at the couple who they claim as my biological parents. They were smiling at me. They don’t know if they will come to me or what. While I just stay still, no emotion or what so ever.

"Alli sorry if we didn’t tell you the truth..." my mom said, now crying.

"It’s okay. I already had a hint.”

They all got shocked by what I said. I wanted to laugh. Since I was young, people were always telling me that I’m just an adopted child. Even my dad teases me sometimes. I never believe that I was an adopted child because they never make me feel like one.

They loved me just the same as my younger brother. But as I grow up, the fact that I don’t resemble my parents nor my younger brother became more visible.

“Since I was young, people always tease me that I’m just an adopted child remember? Though you always make it sound like a joke.” I said coldly.

I honestly don’t know what I will feel nor how I should react.

"Alli..." mom’s calling me.

"Don't worry mom I did not take that against you. I’m actually thankful because even though I’m not your biological daughter you love me just the same. I even more spoiled than Dennis.” I told her.
