My nickname is enchilada, and some people call me 'Lada. So, Ladians, enjoy! I enjoy writing this. And enjoy Le's annoying comments on the story.

Leland: HEY!

Shut it. My Ladians want to read the story or they wouldn't be here. So lil' Ladas, here is the story.

~Lenci~

Brad had just pulled up at my mom's house. He put the car in park and turned it off. I was about to get out of the car when Brad opened the door for me from out-side of the car. I got out and he closed the door. I held hands with him as we walked up to the door of my mom's house. It was three stories tall and in took up all of her land but enough to have a beautiful garden in the front, and a nice-sized field in the back. I rang the doorbell and Emmylou opened the door. She smiled a big, genuine smile at Brad and I and greeted, "Why, hello there! I missed you Lenci, and Brad, it's nice to see you again." Brad smiled back at Emmylou. We walked inside, still hand in hand as we came into the living room. I found Avery, Michaela, and surprisingly Mr. Mittens, my childhood cat, in the living room. Avery had a look of concern on her face while Michaela had a look of dread. Brad shook hands with my mom and Avery before we both took a seat on the couch. Emmylou came in the room after us and she sat down beside me. Michaela cleared her throat and started, "Lenci, Emmylou, I have something important to tell you two." I sat back on the couch. I could see the look on everyone's faces. Michaela looked unconfident, Avery looked relived and afraid, Emmylou looked like she was trying to figure out what Michaela was going to say, and Brad, well, he looked like he felt that he was out of place. "We're only telling you this for your own well-being," Avery butted in. Michaela nodded. She looked very hesitant before she started to look a bit more confident. She breathed in and out and said without feeling, "I'm not Lenci's mother." My eyes widened and I laughed. My mom always cracked the best jokes. "Woo, mom that was a good joke!" I looked at Michaela's face. She didn't look like she was kidding. She then said softly, "I'm serious, Lenci." I felt a pain in my chest. My eyes started to tear up. "HOW COULD YOU!?" I scream-cried through sobs, "WHY MICHAELA!? WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?!" I couldn't control the tears threatening to spill down my face. Avery then told me something, and that is what broke it, "Lenci, I'm actually you mom."
