1Talen was one now. My parents died, a lawyer tracked me down a couple of weeks ago. They died in a car accident in California. My father got a job in California. The lawyer said I had an inheritance, a lot of money and the house in Tree Hill. I had go back to Tree Hill to sale the house and for my parents funeral. I didn't want to go back. There were too many memories, what if I saw Lucas.
When I arrived in Tree Hill, I went straight to my old house after buying boxes. I wanted to sell everything as fast as I could and leave. I didn't want to be here, it was too painful.
Talen was in his playpen, when someone I least expected showed up at my door. Peyton Sewyer walked in as the movers were taking stuff out.
"Hello anyone here?"
"Yes " is said
"Brooke, hey how are you?"
"Good, how are you?
"Good, I hear about your parents, I'm sorry. I wasn't sure if you were coming back."
"I had to sale the house and arrange there funerals."
"I heard you were in Georgia."
My eyes snapped up so they all knew where I was.
"Nathan and Haley told me, what were you doing in Georgia?'
"Waiting tables."
"Waiting tables what about school? What about your parents?"
"I dropped out of school, I needed to work to live, as far as my parents they were broke didn't you hear? Besides they never cared what I did."
"But you could of stayed here, with your friends."
"What friends, I had none, not even you" Talen started crying and I had to go get him.
"Excuse me."
I went to pick Talen up from his playpen, and Peyton followed.
"Who is he Brooke?"
"This is Talen, my son."
"Is he?"
"Yes," I don't know what made me say it, but the truth felt good to say.
"Does he know?"
"No, and he won't we're leaving tomorrow, the house should be cleared by tomorrow and I only have to come back when the house is sold to sign some papers."
"You can't do this, he deserves to know."
"He doesn't deserve anything after what he put me through, I raised Talen by myself, I cried night after night because he never came. Besides this would end his future, it's hard being a teen parent. Trust me Lucas is better off."
"You can't hold this a secret, secrets always come out.
