Erin saw Lu Delgado walking towards her with her big white coat on. "You must be Erin", Lu said as she looked at Erin who was still sitting down. "Yes I am Erin", she said as she stood up to meet Lu's gaze. "Did you want to talk to me about something", Lu said as she noticed Erin's bags in hand. "Yes, I'm baby girl Delgado born on May 15th 1986", Erin said as she tried hard to compose her thoughts. Lu was in complete shock she never thought that one day that she would come face to face with her daughter whom she given up for adoption 18 years ago. "What did you come here for", Lu asked hoping she didn't scare Erin. "I'm 18 years old now so I looked you up online and I left home last night to come and find you. You are my biological mother Lu, I want to get to know you", Erin said as tears ran down her eyes. "Oh my gosh Erin", Lu said as she embraced her and held her. "I'm glad you came I really am. All my life I wondered about you how you turned out. Every birthday I had written you a card but I never sent it in fear that your adoptive parents might throw it away", Lu said as she continued to hold Erin in her arms. Erin put her head on Lu's chest. "I love you Lu I really do". Lu kissed the top of Erin's head and said "I love you to baby". Just then Dr. Campbell came walking down the corridor in long strides looking for Lu. Andy walked over to Lana and said "What's going on"? As Andy motioned her head in Lu's direction. "A little family reunion. That is Lu's daughter whom she gave up for adoption 18 years ago", Lana said as both Andy and her watched Erin and Lu talk. "Oh okay so I guess this is a bad time to have Lu look over this chart for me", Andy said as she closed the folder in her hand and placed it on the desk for Lana to take. "Yeah, come back later", Lana said. "Let's go to my office and talk", Lu said to Erin. "Alright sure", Erin replied. Lu and Erin got up from their seats and started to walk over to her office. "Lana hold my calls please", she said as she looked at Lana who was sitting behind her desk. "Okay what if it's your son Marc", Lana asked but then regretted it. "Tell him I'll call him back", Lu replied... Erin looked at Lu and said: "I have a brother". "Yes he is 17 years old I had him after you went to your adoptive parents", Lu explained as she saw tears coming out of Erin's eyes. Erin walked inside Lu's office and sat down in a plush red chair. "Why did you keep him and not me what was so wrong with me"? Erin asked. Lu walked over to her desk and sat in her chair. "Nothing was wrong with you, I couldn't have taken care of you like I wanted and my parents were pretty pissed as it was. I kept Marc because I didn't want to lose another child, I did not want to go through the pain of it", she said as she put her hands on the desk. "Oh I see so I was just another bad mistake that you made in your life", Erin said as she tried to catch her breath. "You were never a mistake Erin, never. I loved you from the day were you born until the day you left".Erin, looked at Lu straight in the fact and said: "Until the day I left? So meaning that you don't love me now"? Erin felt her hand start to tremble so she made a fist. "I still love you Erin, that was a bad choice of words on my part", Lu said as she turned off her beeper because it beeped. "Well duh. You know I never asked to be born, I've never asked to be put up for adoption, but unfortunately I was. I'm sorry I had taken up your time today when you obviously had more important things to do", Erin said as she picked up her bags and made her way for the door.
