Benson's Secret Child

Kirstie is 29 she started her life over again in America, New York City to be precise, two years ago with her best friend Mad's also 29, to join her step sister Heather 38 who had moved back there with their Dad when her mum and their Dad had split 24yrs earlier.

Kirstie had visited Heather and her Dad a few times over the years and had slowly fallen in love with the City bit by bit the city became more and more inviting but she just couldn't leave her Mum esp in the last year as her mum had become very ill, so Kirstie had to leave her job as a Nursery & Out of School Club Manager which she loved very much and become her mother's full time career.

So when her mum passed away She'd decided to move from YORK England to NYC for a fresh start, after she found out that her mum had left her everything in her will More than she could have ever imagined her mum have! She knew she had enough to set up her dream business there!

Kirstie had always known she was adopted her Mum & Dad had always been open about that, she'd often wondered about her birth mother and would look for her self in the strangers who passed her!

Her mum had told her as much as she could about her birth mother but she never pushed her on the subject as to not hurt her feelings she loved her mum so very much she was the one who had brought her up single handly since her Dad had left to go back to the US.

Kirstie knew she had been adopted in America when her parents were living in Philadelphia at the time and that her birth mother was studying at college in New York City and that the teddy she had used to be her birth mothers!

Kirstie needed this new start not only had she had to care for her mum but 5 years earlier she had to escape from a very violent marriage and a Miscarriage! Kirstie needed a new start where her ex could never find her when he did get out of prison.

Olivia had found out she was Pregnant while in college she was only just 17 at the time, and even now she could feel how so very scared she was of what her mother was going to say!

And she had every right to be scared, her mom kicked off at her so very bad not only verbally but physically too, yet again her mom had been drinking when she had returned home from college that day she found her mom sat at the kitchen table drinking, she wanted to cry seeing her mom sat there drunk again! Knowing wasn't a good time to talk to her Olivia had just walked straight to her room with out even talking to her mom! Shutting her bedroom door she thought she was safe, but it hasn't gone down well with her mom and as Olivia sat down on her bed her mom came bursting through the door, angry that she had been ignored, shouting at Olivia she got more and more angry, so much so she grabbed ahold of Olivia and pinned her up against the wall as she raised her hand and hit Olivia hard and as she went to hit her again Olivia shouted "PLEASE STOP MOM, PLEASE" so very loudly it shocked her mom, stopping her just for that very moment, then her hand hit Olivia again and again, that was when Olivia tried to hit back and as she did so she shouted loudly "PLEASE MOM STOP PLEASE I'M PREGNANT PLEASE"

With hearing this her Mom stopped stepping back raising her voice she said "What did you just say?"

"I'm Pregnant mom and I'm keeping it"

"What the fuck and To hell your not! You stupid girl what you go and do that for?"

And that was just the beginning Olivia's mom after calming down a bottle of Vodka and a day later agreed she could have the baby but she must give it up when it arrived, but this wouldn't be the first or the last time she got hit during her pregnancy with her daughter.

And by the time she gave birth to her baby girl 2 months early as her mom had hit her in the stomach Olivia realized even though she so very much wanted her Baby her mom had been right from the start she must give her up it wasn't safe or fair to bring her daughter up in the same environment she had been brought up in and she didn't have the kind of money to just move out and bring up a child,

As her baby girl lay in the crib beside her Olivia looked through a family book the adoption agency had sent over this was the 3rd one she had looked at and she was tired but the family picture brought a smile to her face, and she just knew it had to be them! Mr Donald Smithson American born and raied a peadatric Doctor, His wife Ella Smithson also a Doctor, Ella was British Born and raised but had moved over to Philadelphia to join her husband and step daughter Heather aged 9 when they'd married 4yrs ago! Olivia had known reading this how Much of a happy childhood her baby could have!

Olivia met the couple and there daughter and gave them her baby girl and all she ask was that her daughter was happy and for her to have her childhood teddy to keep for ever Ella & Don had agreed whole heartedly and promised she would be happy!
