Whoa, tough month!

My stay in Arkansas went well. :) My grandmother is fine, but she's going to have to have surgery to correct some blockage in her legs, and my grandpa (who is really my step grandpa, as he is my mom's stepdad) has really turned out to be an ass, but other than that, it went well!

This month has flown, as it is my last month of freedom (or parole, if you will!) before I have to return to that horrible prison I call high school. BUT, I'm a senior now! And I'm also the new head editor of our yearbook. :) So I've got quite the year ahead of me!

Anyway, enjoy!!!

PS- This song is from Repo!: The Genetic Opera, a GREAT movie!!!

"You look like your mother."

Lewis was taken aback.

Who was this strange woman that had shown up on his front doorstep? How did she know who he was? And why was she telling him he looked like his mother?

"State your business." He said.

The woman looked confused.

"What do you want?" Lewis asked. "Who are you?"

"My name is Noelle. I was a good friend of your mother's." The woman called Noelle stepped forward. "It's taken me years to find you, Lewis."

"My name is Cornelius." Lewis said. "And I'm afraid I can't help you, Ms. Noelle."

"Your mother is dead, Lewis." Noelle said. "She died a few years ago, from cancer. I just want you to know she loved you very much."

"Then why did she give me up?"

"She had no choice, dear boy." Noelle said. "She didn't want to. She tried to take care of you, but with your father up and leaving..."

"Stop it!" Lewis cried suddenly. He stormed forward, and opened the door, signaling for Noelle to leave. "I think it's time you left."

Noelle looked at the floor for a moment before she made eye contact with him again.

"As you wish." She said. She walked through the door, and down the path leading to the driveway. "But I want you to remember one thing, dear Cornelius. She loved you. With everything that she was."

Lewis wanted to shut the door, but somehow found himself transfixed.

"Who are you?" He finally asked.

Noelle turned and smiled at him.

"I was your godmom." She said.
