Chapter 2
Leaving
I held a small slip of paper close to my chest as I 'slept'. I had hatched a plan. On the paper, I had an address that I found in one of the dusty, old boxes. It was the address of the home of a woman named Rachel Berry. I recognized her name from the birth story Mom told me. I planned to go to her house. Even if Rachel wasn't really close to them, she would have to know someone close to this Quinn, or Noah.
I looked at the clock.
12:48
It was almost time to get my stuff and go and start my journey. I had packed some clothes, and the $350 I had from my birthday into my Vera Bradley 'Hope Garden' duffel bag. I was also planning on grabbing a few things to eat from the kitchen on my way out.
12:53
I peeked outside my door for any sign of my Mom. Nothing. I grabbed my bag and stepped outside the door, and started walking toward the kitchen. I went back into my room, and grabbed a notebook, and a pen. I walked into the dim kitchen, the only light coming from the glimmering moon in the window. I sat down in the same spot Shelby told me about my entrance into the world.
Dear Mom,
I'm sorry, I really am. But I have to find my biological mother and father. I just want some closure. I want to show them what their little girl has grown up to be. But just know this. I love you, and you will always be my real mother no matter what. You can punish me however you want when I get back. I promise to call at least once a week, alright? I love you mommy.
Love,
Beth.
I ripped the note out of the notebook. I felt tears coming for the second time tonight. I grabbed a few things from the pantry, and then stepped into chilly air outside. I shivered, so I pulled my purple fleece North Face from my bag, and pulled it over my shoulders.
A few hours later, I had managed to take the bus, and walk to the address of this Rachel Berry chick. The house that was suppost to be hers was a pretty decent size. Pretty much the size of any other suburban home. It was mostly blue, and it had some stone on the sides. It was pretty. I stepped on the stone they had placed in front of the door. I guessed it was suppost to be a 'step'. I knocked on the door. I heard a small click, followed by the opening of the door. There was an extremely handsome man. He had beautiful brown eyes, and brown hair.
"Rachel Berry?" I ask. UGH! I think. STUPID! He's a guy! His name obviously isn't Rachel!
"Well, kind of. I'm her husband. Finn Hudson." he said, sticking out his hand.
"Hello Mr. Hudson." I said, sticking out my hand. "My name is Elizabeth Corcoran. But most people just call me Beth."
"Beth, huh. Hold on." he said, walking away from the door. He turned around. "Umm, Beth, why don't you come on in?"
I do, but cautiously. This guy could be a pedophile for all I know. I think to myself. I stand in front of a long table, covered with pictures as Finn leaves me, and walks into his room. I look at the pictures. He has no children, but a beautiful wife. Rachel Berry, I'm guessing is her name. Well, Rachel Hudson. I look at the pictures, my mind telling me that she looks familiar. But I just don't know from where. I can hear Mr. Hudson speaking to someone in his bedroom.
"Common, Rach. I just want you to see her." he says. I then hear a groan.
"Fine." a woman's voice says. I quickly focus my gaze from the wooden bedroom door, to the pictures once again. I hear the door open, then some footsteps. I don't let myself look at her though. I wait till they say something.
"Beth, meet my wife, Rachel." Finn says. I look up at her. I let out a gasp.
"You… You look like… Like Mommy."
"Finn." Rachel says. "That's… That's Puck and Quinn's daughter."
