Chapter 7: Confessions Part. Two — Alana's Choice

Clover looked towards the kitchen and headed in there. She grabbed two Ben and Jerry's ice cream and two spoons. She walked over to Jaliyah.

"Honey, here." Jaliyah looked up and smiled; she wiped her tears with her hands and took a spoon and an ice cream. "Thanks."

"If you need to talk just call me, I'm going to give this to your mom." Clover started to walk away and stopped when Jaliyah spoke, "ex-mom."

"She's your mom like it or not, we can't choose are parents, and that's a good thing, because if we could, Oprah would have lots of kids."

Jaliyah laughed and gave Clover a weak smile, "Raw comes on tonight want to watch?"

Clover couldn't look Jaliyah in the eyes; she knew John was on Raw, and it would hurt her if Jaliyah looked at John and not know he was her dad.

"Umm, uh…"Clover tried to think of a good lie. "I have a date."

"Wow! You never had dates."

"Well it's not with a guy…"

"Are you gay?" Jaliyah asked quickly.

"No, no, sweety, my date's with you, and the TV." Clover walked up the stairs and mentally slapped herself.

She knocked on Alana's room door.

"Come in, Clover!" Alana called as if she was some kind of psychic.

"Okay, I brought you a spoon and some ice cream."

"Leave it to you to bring ice cream." Clover sat down and gave her the spoon and ice cream.

"Did, Jaliyah take the ice cream?"

"Yes she did, and how did you know I gave her some."

"Because every time, we argue you always bring us ice cream, then you'd come talk to me, and then you'd watch TV later that night with Jaliyah. She cools down and we talk things out."

"Whoa, you're one smart cookie."

"Yeah, I know. How am I going to tell my sweet beautiful daughter that, her lest favorite wrestler is her father?"

"Umm, well, tell her tomorrow. I have to buy more ice cream first." Clover replied, "tell her to night, I'll get ice cream now. I have to get something first."

"What do you have to get."

"Something you don't have, duh!"

Clover walked out the room, laughing.

"Not funny!" Alana screamed as she began to eat her ice cream.

"Okay, Jaliyah. I'm going to the store. Your mom is upstairs, her room is off limits until I get home, alright?"

"Yes, but why?"

"Because she's scared to tell you who your father is, and if she sees you she'll tell you and you'll be pissed, and you'll need someone to talk to."

"Like always huh?"

"Yeah. Like always."

"Can I go with you?"

"Umm, sure. I was going to buy ice cream and something else."

"What?"

"Can't tell you, go in my Mercedes-Benz and I'll be right out, here's the key. If you press that gas petal I will kill you."

"Alright, auntie." Jaliyah walked out of the house as Clover walked up stairs to Alana's room.

"Alana," she opened Alana's room door and walked in.

"Yeah?" Alana swallowed the ice cream in her mouth.

"I'm taking Jaliyah with me, and we'll be back later. You have a choice to make."

"I do?" Alana asked off guard.

"Yes, are you going to step up and tell your daughter who her father is tonight, are you going to hide it forever, or are you going to tell you daughter who her father is, tell her father about her, and tell them the secret that you've been hiding since you first met John…"

"I forgot all about the secret, but now that I have my choices I know what I must do."

"I hope you choose the right one, now I have a little 9 year-old that wants to go to the store, so I'll see you later."

"Bye." Clover walked out the door hoping Alana made the right decision.

Alana watched Clover walk out that door and realized that she had to tell them the truth; she had to tell everyone the truth. She knew that there is one place she had to go first, hoping that he'd forgive her of her sins.

That one place isn't with John…it's at the cemetery, to visit Ricky Jacobson's grave, her would-be 13 year-old son.

A/n: Hope you all like this chapter. She has a dead son, which only Clover and her parents knew about. Stay tuned for the next chapter! Damn, there's so many confessions today.
