Chapter Nine

The next day I went to the hospital to visit Rose.I walked down the hall to her room and looked in,there were flowers everywhere.I don't think I had ever seen so many flowers in one place except for maybe in a greenhouse.I sat down beside Rose and grabbed her hand,she still wasn't waking up and it had been a week and a half since her .Cullen said that it could be a few more days before she woke up at the very least.I stared at Rose,I still couldn't believe that someone would ever want to hurt her.I looked up and saw Wesley the janitor at the door holding flowers.

"Sorry I didn't know anyone was in here" he said."

"It's fine,I just wanted to stop by and she how she was doing."

"Mind if I come in,I don't have to if you want to spend time alone with her."

"I don't mind,are you the one bringing all the flowers?"

"Yeah,I think that I might have overdone it though" he said. "By the way,I don't think we've met but I'm Wesley."

"No we haven't,I'm Mia."

"Nice to met you Mia,how do you know Rose?If you don't mind my asking?"

"I'm her granddaughter."

Wesley just stared at me with a weird look on his face.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing,so do you know if the police have any leads on who attacked her?"

"They told me that they were still looking,I imagine its kind of hard figuring it out with no leads to go on."

"Yeah,I guess so."

We sat there quietly for a few minutes.

"I heard about the fight at school between you and Mr. O" I said.

"Seems like everybody has."

"What did you say to make Mr.O attack you like that?"

"I didn't say anything,I just asked him if he knew if the police were getting any closer to finding the guy that hurt Rose."He's got a close friend on the force so I thought if anyone knew anything he would."

"And he just attacked you?"

"Yep,one minute I was asking him a question and the next I was on the ground with fists flying in my face."

"Wow! and you just let him hit you?"

"Well yeah,I figured if I hit him back it would just make matters worse."

"I guess it would?huh"

"Yep,can I ask you a question Mia?"

"You mean besides the one you just asked me? I laughed."

He laughed "You are definitely Rose's granddaughter,you have the same snark as yes besides the question that I just asked you."

"Alright,what's your question?"

"Who's your father?"

"My dad's name is Hunter Wolfe,why?"

Wesley had the weird look on his face again.

"No reason,I was just curious" he said.

"No,you asked for a reason,is it because my dad is suppose to be dead?"

He just stared at me, "Did Rose ever tell you that she had two sons?"

I felt my mouth hit the floor, "Rose had two sons,you mean my dad has a brother?"

"Yes,he does."

I looked at Wesley, "You're lying,my dad doesn't have a brother if he did he would have told me."

"I'm not lying,believe me."

"How do you know that by dad has a brother?"

"I know because I'm that brother."

"What!? You can't be my uncle,you don't have my last name."

"My real name is Gabriel Wolfe,I changed it after the accident so no one would know that I survived."

I sank down into my chair, "so wait,you're telling me that you're my uncle and that you changed your name to make everyone think you were dead after the no one will talk about for some strange reason."

"Yes,that's what I'm saying" he said.

"Why did you change your name?What happened all those years ago?Why does everyone think that you and my dad are dead?"

"I changed my name so I could keep Rose safe,and as for what happened all those years ago I can't tell you."

"Like hell you can't tell me,you drop a bomb like that on me and you can't tell me why."

"I'm sorry,I would if I could,but I swore I would never speak of it."

"You mean you can,but you just won't."

"I mean I can't,you don't understand there are things I can't talk about."

"Why can't you?Does it have something to do with Rose?"

"Lets just say what happened to Rose wasn't an accident."

"Wait,do you know why someone attacked her?"

"I have a general idea,yes."

"And you haven't told the police!What's wrong with you?It could help them find the guy who did this to her."

"Its just a general idea,and I did tell the police."

"I can't believe this."

"I know its a lot to take in right now."

"I don't think you do,anything else you want to tell me like maybe you're my real father?"

He chuckled, "I don't think I am,although I dated your mother for a few years before your father did."

"So you're saying its a possibility?"

"I guess it could be,although I highly doubt it."

"Well,there is only one way to find out."

I grabbed my cell phone out of my pocket and dialed my mom's rang three time before she picked up.

"Mia,what's wrong?"

"Nothing mom,well I guess something could be wrong."

"What is it dear?"

"Mom do you remember dad's brother Gabriel Wolfe?"

"I haven't heard that name in years,you know your father doesn't like talking about that part of his did you find out your father has a brother?Did Rose tell you?"

"No mom Rose didn't tell me,Gabriel did."

"Honey,Gabriel couldn't tell you he died years ago."

"No,he didn't mom,he's sitting right beside me."

"Mia,I think all that rain has gone to your head,you know too much rain is never a good thing."

"Whatever mom,anyway that's not what I wanted to ask you."

"What did you want to ask me Mia?"

"Is Gabriel my real dad?"

I heard the phone drop and my mom gasp.

"Mia,you have to understand,I didn't know I was pregnant until after Gabriel had died and I was so sure your father was well...your when you were younger,we went to visit Rose and I saw some baby pictures of Gabriel and you looked so much like him.I just wasn't sure,so I had a DNA test done."

"and what did it say?" I asked.

I heard my mom sigh

"I never thought you would ask this question,I always thought that you wouldn't notice."

"Mom,answer the question."

"It said that Gabriel was your father."

I almost dropped my phone.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Oh honey,I didn't think it would matter,Gabriel died and I wanted you to have a father."

"Well it does matter mom,I had a right to know I always felt like I never got along with dad because we were too out it was because I wasn't his to begin with."

"Honey,your father loves you."

"Does he know?"

"No dear he doesn't I didn't even tell him I wasn't sure."

"He never noticed that I didn't look like him?"

"He always thought you looked more like me than him."

"I can't believe this."

"Its a lot to take in,I know."

"No mom you have no idea what it feels like to have been lied to your whole life."

"Hon…" I hung up the phone.

Wesley or dad as I should say just sat there.

"So,I guess I'm your father" he said.

"I guess so,I don't have to start calling you dad or anything do I?"

He chuckled, "No,you don't just call me Wesley."

"Okay,Wesley."

We faded back into silence and sat there for the rest of the night.
