"Okay enough with all this chitchat let's get down to the important stuff tell us what happen?" Sophia ask. Liam leans into his elbow to give me his full attention. Oh great now all the attention is on me. I start playing with my bracelet as I start the story. I end up telling them everything that happen after Mark shot Gabe. I even told them about his love confession. I had to hold Gabe's hand to help him control his anger through that part. I told them everything expect the part about my father of course. "Oh my god" Sophia says shock. "What a sick mother fucker" Liam adds and I nod in agreement. "He is one crazy asshole" Logan says while Gabe just stays quite besides me. I squeeze his hand for comfort I know he needs it right now.
"Oh now that I remember," Sophia says. I'm so thankful for the change of subject. She jumps up and walks over to the cabinet "this came in the mail for you" she hands me a big orange envelope. "What's that?" Gabe ask. I shrug my shoulders I have no idea what this could be. I flip the envelope and there is a stamp from the private investigator I hired.
My heart drops to my stomach. Inside of this envelope is the answer to all my prayers. Inside of this envelope is the truth about my mother. Am I ready to know everything about her? What really happen to her? To know where she is bury? Is there a picture of her inside here? Of course I am this is what I've been waiting for all my life.
"Get her some water she looks pale as fuck" Gabe barks. "Are you okay baby" he shifts his body towards me. I can't find my voice so I just nod my head. I wish I had my father or Sammy here with me. "Here babe" Liam place a water glass in front of me. With shaky hands I reach for it and take a sip out if it. The cold water feels amazing on my dry lips. "Do you want me to open it for you" Gabe offers.
I shake my head and pin the envelope to my chest like my life depended on it. I need to do this myself. "Okay baby just relax" he tries calming me down. Why am I freaking out? I feel every one's eyes on me. I must seem like a crazy person. They don't know how important this is for me. I tare the envelope open and pull out the paper out.
Dear Mrs. Carter........
