CHAPTER 3
I recognized the voice, it was Nick. ""Please stop crying" he begged as he brings me into a hug. "Listen Sam, I know its not the best news, but it could be worse, right" "It can't possibly be worse this is the most horrible thing that ever happened…I don't know who my real parents are and the people I love and grew up with isn't even related to me…" I explained between sobs. "Sam you know why mom and dad waited to tell you?" I shook my head, "It's because they love you and to them the worst thing that could happen is if you didn't love them anymore because your not blood." Nick explained still with my head resting on his chest and his arm tightly around me. "Of course I would love them but I guess not in the same way as I always did since their not my biological parents…" I tell him. "I understand but they will always love you as their only DAUGHTER." Nick explained leaving my speechless. (honk, honk) the car horn sang, Nick helped me up and handed me a tissue to wipe my tears. But the words he told me still rung in my ears over and over again. The car ride was silent, awkward silence (gay baby born lolz!) no one really spoke other than Joe and Nick's loud noise from snoring. Frankie was asleep also but me, Kevin, 'mom and dad' were the only ones awake. When we got home we all went straight to bed, exhausted from all the trouble I caused.
I woke up around 1pm; I wondered why no one woke me up. I went into the bathroom to get ready for the day and yet Nicks words kept repeating in my head again, I came down stairs to find every one in the living room and Nick looking kind of anxious. "What's going on with everybody?" I ask looking for someone to answer. "Samantha, honey…" 'Mom' finally spoke. Uh oh what is it now? "Yes?..." I responded questionably. 'Mom' handed me a paper that looked important, a letter it read…
Dear 'to whom it may concern'… 6-8-93
Please take care of my baby girl; her name is Samantha Marie Dolan. Her birthday is June 4th 1993. My name is Georgia Dolan, I was raped coming home from work and I just couldn't in my right mind abort her. Right after I found out I was pregnant I was told I had kidney failure from the baby and had less than a year to live. I had no one to take care of her so while I was passing by you house one day I saw you had two boys around her age and one older son, and I figured you would be able to help me out. When she is older please let her know that I love her and i'm sorry I can't be there when she has her first day of school, boy problems, college, wedding one day, and grandchildren. As I said before please take care of my baby.
I'm sorry,
Georgia Dolan
I was in tears when I read this, my mother, my real mother wrote this in her handwriting. "I killed her…" and started crying, My parents and brothers hugged me. "No you didn't honey" mom tried to comfort me, "yes I did, if I wasn't born she would still be alive" I replied practicality choking on my tears. Eventually I stopped and after I calmed down, "Honey would you like me to make steak? I know that's your favorite food." Mom yells from the kitchen. I just nod my head.
After dinner I saw mom mentioned something to Nick and he got all anxious again. 'Boys…I don't get them' I tell myself. I just go back to watching TV when Nick walks in, "Sami…uhmm…can I…I talk to you in…a…private?" Nicks asks nervously stuttering with his hands tucked in his tight jean pockets. "Sure, what's up?" I respond thing that he coming to me for advice about asking a girl out or something. "Can we go to…umm…a…my room?" he asks still stuttering. "Okay, then" I answer. We get to his room and he sits on the edge of his bed uncomfortably, while patting the seat next to him. I go over to sit near him, "There's something you really need to know…" Nick starts off. I just nod my head waiting for him to finish. "We're suppose to…uhmm…kinda…"
