Ever since I was a child, people keeps saying that I am just an adopted child. I keep on denying myself that I am not adopted though many people noticed that I don't have any resemblance with my parents unlike my younger brother. Until one day, a couple went on our house and they are claiming that I am their daughter. I didn't expect that aside from my real parents, I will also found the love that I always dreaming to have.
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.
I can't stop myself from crying. I wiped my tears and look at my biological parents. I smile and greeted them.
"Hi!"
"Allison!" The woman said.
She went to me and hug me. She keeps on crying. The man beside him also hug me. He was trying to stop himself from crying..
We decided to have our dinner in our house and to tell me why I end up with my adopted parents.
They did not give me to my adopted parents. As per them, my mom had an early pregnancy because of that, my grand parents drive my parents out of their house.
My parents both came from a wealthy family but my father's parents did not approved their relationship because they already arranged my father to someone. My dad stop attending school and started to work for me and my mom. That was the time that they met my adopted parents.
My adopted mom and dad were having a hard time to bear a child. The frustration of having a child led my parents to be close with them. The reason why my mom were always on our house to take care of me while my parents were working.
At first my parents were still able to sustain our needs. Until I became sick. They need a huge amount of money for my recovery. At that time, my moms parents were out if the country. My dad went to his parents to asked for help. They did help us but they want my dad to go abroad to study and be trained for their business.
My dad had no choice but to agree to their condition. My mom can't accept it that's why she got mad at my dad. My mom thought of going back to her parents and beg to accept us. My mom left me first with my adopted mom because she kind of scared that her parents reject us. She doesn't want me to experience to be rejected.
Unexpectedly, my mom's parents accepted us with open arms. My mom went back to my adopted parents but they already left. My mom thought that they runaway from her to steal me because they can't have a child. My mom felt so miserable at that time. She hired a private investigator to look for them but none of the private investigators that they hired found me.
At that time my adopted mom received a news that her mother was severely ill. They rushed to went to Mindoro where her mother was. They can't wait for my mom at that time because they were so worried about her mom. They decided to bring me along with them.
Unfortunately, her mom died. They can't go back to Manila at that time because they need to take charge of her mom's wake and some properties that her mom left behind.
My adopted mom tried to asked for my biological mother from their neighbor but as per them my mother did not return. When my adopted parents went back to Manila they did not stay in their old apartment. That made it more hard for my mom to trace them.
After 4 years my dad went back, he went straight at my mom's place to win us back. And that's the time that he found out what happen to me.
My dad didn't know who to blame at that time.
Will he blame himself or my mom? He just chose to just blame himself. My dad did nothing but to study and work hard for me and my mom so that we don't need to worry about money anymore.
It took a while before my mom decided to accept my dad again. Love always win. She chose to gave my father a chance. They got married and they had 2 more child.
Even though they already have my siblings, they didn't stop to look for me. And this was the day they were all waiting for because finally they found me.
My mom already told my adopted parents that they will bring me with them. They thank them for the love and care that they gave me. They also apologize for thinking ill of them. They even offer them a financial help, a business or anything as their way to thank them. But my adopted parents refused to asked for anything. As per them, they were happy that I came into their life. I completed my mom's dream which is to have a complete family.
My mom also believe that I was their lucky charm, because when I came into their lives, they finally know the feeling of having a complete family. And maybe because of the love that they gave me, God bless them a child of their own which is Dennis.
I started to cry when I heard my adopted mom telling my mom all my favorites and the things that I don't like. My mood, and attitude that they need to adjust or understand.
"Sis you take care okay? Don't be so moody and snob. You go here and visit us okay? I will miss you even though we often argue." My younger said while crying.
"I will miss you too. Especially whenever you annoys me." I hug him tight.
I face my adopted parents.
"My daughter be good to your parents and siblings okay? You come here and visit us. We will miss you. We love you so much." My mom said getting emotional again.
"Yes mom. I'll go here and visit you guys." I said while crying.
I know that this day will come but I still find it hard to accept it.
