The alarm started to go off and April rolled over and hit snooze. Today was her 21st birthday and she and a couple of her friends were hitting the mall.

"April, breakfast is ready," her mom yelled from downstairs.

April got up, brushed her teeth and hair and went downstairs. She smelled her favorite, sausage gravy and biscuits. She ate her food and was about to put her plate in the sink when her mom told her to sit down.

"Honey, there is something we need to talk about." April sat and looked at her mother and saw the look of concern in her eyes.

"Mom, what's wrong," April said.

"Someone is coming over who I would like for you to meet. You may not understand this, but just remember I love you and please don't get mad at me," her mom said, shaking.

"Mom, it's ok," April said, getting up to give her mother a hug. "I'm going to go upstairs and get dressed and I'll be down in a little while," April said.

"Well, here. Open your present first and then go get dressed," her mother said, handing her a box.

April ripped the wrapping paper and looked at the box. She opened the box and pulled back the tissue paper to reveal WWE tickets, backstage passes and a VIP/Meet and Greet laminated necklace. She picked the ticket up and realized it was for the show tonight in Baltimore, MD. April started jumping up and down and shrieking with delight.

"Mom, how did you get these? The show has been sold out for over a month now! I tried getting the tickets," she replied, giving her mother a kiss on the cheek.

"Thank you, Mom. It's the best present ever."

She ran upstairs, taking the box with her. She got her shower and blow dried her hair. She carefully placed her make-up on and fixed her long, light brown hair into curls. She looked in her closet to select her outfit. She pulled out her new jeans and her HBK tank top. She put her diamond earrings in she had received for Christmas that year and looked at herself in the mirror. All of a sudden she heard the doorbell ring and decided it was time to go downstairs. She looked at herself in the mirror again when she heard her mom and a man talking downstairs. She tip-toed to the edge of the steps and sat at the top, listening in.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but I have been hiding it for 21 years. When we were in school and after we broke up after graduation was when I realized I was pregnant with her. I should have tried to contact you years earlier, but there was something about our break-up that was just holding me back from telling you everything. So, I raised her myself until I realized I couldn't no longer. She has been asking and I know her. If I didn't tell you, she was going to search and be in for a big shock when she found out who you really were," her mom said, with a shaky voice.

What is going on, April thought.

"Barb, I understand why you did what you did. I would love to get to know her, but will she be receptive," the man asked.

April could take no more and bolted down the stairs.

"Mom, what's going..." April trailed off, looking at the man. "Mom, how do you.."

April hit the floor before she could finish her sentence.
