The introduction to my Eastenders fan fiction 'The Square'. Danielle sets out to find her mother, Ronnie but will her time in Albert Square end with the same tragic ending?
Danielle POV
The Square
Chapter 1
No words could describe the hurt and pain it caused me when my dad told me the truth. No words could describe the shock and denial it sent me in to. It turned out all my life I had been living a lie. Since the day my real mother had given birth to me that's when the lying started. I was brought up to believe I was Danielle Jones. But if I'm not Danielle who am I? Who is my family? Who am I supposed to be?
From the minute I knew the truth I knew what I wanted to do. The locket told me everything. Whenever I looked at my locket, the one thing that kept me close to my real mum, I knew I had to find her. My family- or what I thought was my family- didn't agree with it. That wasn't going to stop me though. I had to find her. It was just something I had to do. For myself and for her, whoever she was.
It took me ages. I searched and searched for her. I tried everything I could to find her and eventually I tracked her down. It was hard for me to come to terms with it at first even though I had wanted this to happen all my life. When I found out where she lived I was ecstatic. Finally I would get to meet my real mother! I would run up to her, tell her I was her daughter, she would be so happy she would hug me then I would be accepted into the Mitchell clan and we would live as a normal family, a happy family. That would be the dream of course but what if she didn't like me? If she didn't want me? There was no doubt I wanted her in my life but what if she didn't feel the same? After all, if she wanted me, her daughter, in her life she wouldn't have gave me up in the first place...would she?
I thought about the situation for a long time and eventually I made a decision. I decided I didn't give a damn If she didn't want me In her life again. She HAD to know. I realized I would be taking a risk. But it was a risk I was willing to take. I was curious and when my curiosity took over I knew I would have to find out more about her. I was going to find my mum. There was no question about it.
As I sat in the taxi on my way to Albert Square I wondered what she would be like. Would she be the perfect mum I always wanted? Or would she just want me to stay out of her life forever like I feared? Regardless I knew I MUST do this. There was so many questions to be answered!
Eventually the taxi stopped, I payed the driver and got out of the taxi. I breathed deeply then looked around. This was it. Albert Square. I was finally going to meet my birth mother...
Well that was the introduction to 'The Square'. Just the introduction so a little short. Hope you liked it though! Please review!
