Chapter 1 : Surprise!
There were a huge crowd when Beca Mitchell also known as Dj BM steps out of the arena after one of the prestigious awarding ceremony ended, many reporters and paparazzi took her pictures and want to interview her.
"Ms. Mitchell! Ms. Mitchell! Can we have a minute or two?" one of the reporters ask, Beca smiles and stops for a while. She wanted to curse at them and say back off but tonight she's in a good mood to have a little chit chat.
"How does it feel for winning Best producer of the year, Best Album of the year and Singer of the year award?"
"I feel flattered and happy, I mean I'm not expecting I would win these awards but thank you for trusting and believing in me.." she answers, some of the reporters wants to ask her a little more question but her manager, Aubrey pulls her away.
"Sorry guys but you can ask her more questions on her presscon this coming Saturday.." she said and winks at Beca, they both went inside the limo as the paparazzi keeps on taking her pictures.
"Thanks Bree." Beca says and lean her tired body on the limo seat
"You know I always got your back even though sometimes you're a pain in the ass" she answered. She known Aubrey since she got in LA and she help her a lot in establishing her career. She treats her as a big sister and the only family she got.
"Are you coming to my party?"
"Yes I am and I need to talk to Amy and Cynthia Rose too.." Aubrey says while reading something on her phone
"About what?"
"About the movie some producers offered to them."
"Oh okay, so you'll stay for the night?"
"No, I won't. You know I need to go home right?"
" You need to loosen up once in a while. When was the last time you sleep in some stranger's house?" Aubrey tries to ignore her friend "You should be like me." Beca added.
"You mean live the life you're living? NO thank you Mitchell.."
"Why? What's wrong with my life? I have plenty of money, I can do what I want, I can buy what I want, I travel around the world and lots of people loves me."
"Including your girls from left to right, front and back.."
"Oh fuck off." Aubrey looks at her friend with a small smile on her face; she places her phone inside the bag and decided to have a heart to heart talk with her little friend.
"Seriously Beca, you're already 28 years old, don't you want to settle down and have a family on your own?" Aubrey asks her.
"Why would i? There's a lot of girls chasing after me, I can have different girls every night.."
"But are you happy?"
"Of course I am." But all of a sudden, she hears a voice in the back of her mind Are you sure Mitchell?
The limo stops and Beca saw that they arrive at her penthouse.
"Okay whatever but let me tell you this; it's more fun working hard if there's someone waiting for you and takes care of you when you come home from work." Aubrey said she then opens the limo door and went out.
I should be happy, I have money and plenty of girls and I don't care about anyone
Unit number 2324
As Beca enters the door, she saw lots of people inside partying, some of her so called girlfriends wave at her while she smiled back and boost her confidence and feel proud of herself, one of the girls approach her.
"Congrats babe." she said then planted a kiss on Beca's lips
"Wow, uhm thanks." She tries to remember her name but she fails "Are you enjoying my party?" she asks while she looks to her other girls looking at them, she smiled and winks.
"Yeah but how come you didn't say my name in your speech?"
"Oh uhm sorry honey but I'm too excited and forgot to mention some people."
"It' okay baby." she said again and Beca squeezes her butt
"Don't worry on my next award, you'll be on top of my list.." the girl smiled at her and the brunette excuses herself and let out a sigh of relief, she continue walking and find her two friends, CR and Amy laughing at her
"What's so funny?" she asks and sits in between them
"You.." CR answered
"You're not getting any younger BM. When will you get serious regarding your relationship with someone" Amy ask her
"Wow is that really you Ames?" Amy laughs while CR shook her head
"Yeah been there done that and I changed. I realized that I can't live my life alone." Amy explained
"Aren't you tired of this? Every night you've been with different girls? You don't have a someone to call your own." CR butted in
"I don't need someone; a lot of people love me!" Beca answered
"For how long? Put this in your mind our dear little DJ, yes you can have the things you wanted, you have all the money you needed but that won't last long." Beca rolled her eyes on them and took Amy's glass and drink the remaining scotch in it.
The party continues and the night passes by, little by little, Beca's friends and girlfriends starts to leave one by one.
"Bree come on, spend the night with me.." Beca begs Aubrey who is now fixing her things as she readies herself to go home.
"I can't Beca, I told you my mom is waiting for me, it's their Anniversary today.." she said
"Why don't you call some of your 'girlfriends' and tell them to hang out with you.." Amy said while smiling, the little brunette ignores her and walk towards her manager.
"Just for the night please." she begs
"I wish I could sis but I really can't." Beca look at CR and Amy
"Sorry dude but we have things to do tomorrow." Cynthia Rose said
"So you guys will leave me here all alone huh?" trying her best to act that she's sad because they are going to leave her alone.
"That's what we're trying to say to you Beca.." Aubrey says as she look at herself on the mirror once more
Beca knows where this is heading so she just sighs and nods her head "Okay then see you guys tomorrow" she said and slump her body on the couch
"Yeah we'll see you tomorrow, have a good night." CR and Amy wave at her and Aubrey gives her an apologetic smile. Beca walks them to the door when Aubrey stops remembering something.
"Oh before I forgot, a representative from Centre for Kids will drop by tomorrow morning. The Charity you've been donating for the past two years.." she said "I think they need to talk you about something."
"Oh okay, I'll give you a call tomorrow.." Beca said without looking at the three and just playing with the doorknob.
"Okay, we have to go now." Beca listens to their footsteps fading away, she close the door and went towards the living room. She lay down on the sofa and stares at the ceiling. She hates to admit that her friends' word are slowly sinking in as she closes her eyes and think.
I'll prove them that I don't need anybody in my life. I'm happy with my relationships so they have to deal with it.
She opens her eyes and an image of a certain someone flashes right in front of her and that someone is the one and only person who own her heart.
Stop thinking of her, she probably happy with her life right now and you mean nothing to her anymore.
The next morning..
9:45 am
Kkkrrriiinnnnngggggggggggggg
Beca almost fell on the floor when she hears the phone rings, she sighs and wipe her face using both of her hands and grab the phone and almost yell at the person on the other line.
"Sorry for waking you up Ms. Mitchell.." Mr. Sparks, the concierge said
The brunette massage her temple as she try not to yell at the old man "Uhm it's okay Mr. Sparks, is there anything I can do for you?" she ask and sits on the couch.
"Well there's someone who is looking for you."
"Who is it?"
"She doesn't want to give her name Ma'am but she said she needed to see you.." Beca thinks for a while and remembers what Aubrey said to her last night
Maybe she's the representative from the charity
"Oh okay Mr. Sparks but before you let her in, can you tell me if she's cute?" she asked smiling
"Oh yes Ms. Mitchell, should I send her up?"
"Of course Mr. Sparks! Thank You!"
"You're welcome!" Beca hangs up and happily make her wy towards her room to change and brush her teeth.
"What a lovely morning.." she said to herself and went inside her room. A minute passes by and she hears the buzzer rings, she went out of her room and went to the door but before she opens it, she looks at herself in the mirror.
"Looking good Mitchell." she said and continue walking to towards the door, she heard the buzzer rings again
"Coming!" she yelled, she fix herself once more and open the door with a smile but to her surprise she didn't saw anyone standing there, she looks to her left and right but there's no one there.
"Weird! She doesn't know how to wait." she said and close the door, she turn around and was about to take a step when the buzzer rings again, she open it but still there's no one outside
"Whoever you are, don't make me get out of here and find you!" she said then she hears a voice
"I'm right here Miss." a voice say, she look down and saw a little girl standing there
"Who are you?" she asked but the girl just smiled at her
Don't you dare say to me that she's the representative from the charity?
"May I come in?" the girl asks.
"Who are you and what do you want?" but instead of answering her, the girl went in and look around her penthouse.
"I'm Bailey." she answered
"So? I don't care.." Beca answered back
"Oh you are so rude." Bailey says and then walks towards the couch and sits on it.
"Okay, okay. Bailey right? Uhm is there anything I can do for you?" Beca asked, she's standing in front of the girl. She's thinking that maybe she's one of her fans.
"Yes there is but can you please prepare me some breakfast first? I'm starving.." she asks.
"What am I your nanny?"
"No but if you want to you can be one." Beca raised one of her eyebrows and stands up
"What do you want to eat?" she asked the girl
"Anything as long as it's edible.." she answered
If it's not wrong to hurt kids, I already throw this one outside the window
Beca went to her kitchen and get some food, bowl, spoon and milk. When she came back to the living room, she saw Bailey till sitting and smiling at her
"Here." she said and places it on the table in front of her.
"A cereal?" Bailey asks.
"You said anything as long as it's edible." And Beca smirks at her.
"Well what else can I do, you live in this big place but you only eat cereal for breakfast."
"Eat." Bailey shrugs her shoulder and pours some cereal into the bowl.
"So kid, what can I do for you?" the brunette asked once more, the girl took a spoonful of cereal and puts in into her mouth. She chews and swallow it first before answering Beca's question.
"I'm looking for my mother.." and repeated what she did a while ago.
"Your mother?" and the little girl nod her head "Kid, I think you got the wrong penthouse number. I live here alone." Beca explained
"Yeah I know that."
"Oh you know that but still you're looking for your mom here?"
"Yep." Beca look around and then look at Bailey again
"Are you seeing something that I can't see?"
"What? Like a ghost?"
"I don't know! You tell me!"
"Look I'm just here to look for my mom who's been out of the picture for the past 8 years of my life."
"But I'm telling you, I live here alone and whoever your mother is, she's not living here."
"Oh trust me, she lives here." The little girl gets something from her little backpack and give it to Beca "What's this?"
"My Birth certificate." She simple said "Read it." As she continues to eat her cereal.
Beca on the other hand hesitates for a while but if she wants this kid out of her house then she needs to know the name of her mother. She unfolds the paper and read the name written on it. At first she furrow hey eyebrows but when she realizes that her last name is Mitchell, her heart starts to beat faster. She search for the name of her mother and she almost collapse when she reads it and one more thing, her name is also written on the certificate.
What the fuck is going on? How come I didn't know I have a d-daughter?!
"Is this some kind of a joke?!" she blurted out "No, it's some kind of a paper that they give to the child's mother as a proof that they give birth to them."
"I know what this is, I'm not stupid."
"Then don't ask stupid questions."
This can't be happening! I don't have a daughter! There's must be some kind of mistake!
"I know what you're thinking and no there's no mistake about this. You are my other mother." Bailey says and lean her back on the sofa as she watches her mother struggle to say something.
"If you want, you can ask someone to verify if it's fake or not." Beca still didn't answer and still looking at the paper she's holding. Bailey then walks towards her, pulls her and let the brunette to sits on the sofa.
She smiles and gives her a hug "It's nice to meet you mom!"
