Chapter 2
Three years later
" Daddy, Daddy, Mama says dinner is ready!" Ericka called from the front porch.
Keith walked out of his shop and went towards the porch and picked up Ericka and put her on his shoulder. He walked in the house, sat Ericka down and went in the kitchen.
He walked up behind Megan and started kissing her neck
" Ew, Keith, you got sweat all over me" Megan said playfully as she swatted her husband.
Megan had met Keith, when Her and Ericka moved to Australia, right after Matt left. He had worked at the office, her dad had helped get a job for her at. They had fallen for each other almost instantly. They dated for about 6 months and then Keith asked Megan to marry him. Of course she said yes!
They Married in March and then two months later Ericka had her first birthday. Keith was the only Daddy, Ericka knew. Megan and Ericka hadn't heard from Matt, since the day he left for training. She had heard from her mom that he had made it on this amateur wrestling program and was now wrestling on T.V.
Keith walked over to the sink and washed up then turned to Ericka. " Alright Baby Girl, come on, Get up here and lets eat some dinner" He smiled as he picked her up.
Megan looked on and watched as her husband chased her 3 year old around the living room trying to catch her.
":Mama, save me!" Ericka Squealed as she ran behind Megan and held on to her leg
" Yes Mama, Save her, save her!" Keith said as he smiled. He looked at Megan and then pushed his lips against hers. He teased her lips with his tongue, and then pushed between them. He caressed her tongue with his. They became lost in the moment. It was just them
" EW…Gross…Mama, daddy stop it." Ericka said with a giggle, as she started tugging on her daddy's pant leg.
" Alright, Alright," Keith said as he bent down to pick up Ericka.
" Lets eat some dinner! YAY!" Ericka said.
13 years later- New Years Day
Phone ringing.
" Hello?"
" Hello, May I speak with Ericka please?"
" This is Ericka, May I ask who is speaking,"
" Ericka, this is the Sydney Hospital, Your Mother and Father were in a car accident"
" What, are they ok?"
" I really don't know, all I know is we need you to come down here as soon as possible"
" Ok, I am on my way"
Ericka hung up the phone
She jumped in the car and drove 20 min. to the hospital. She ran into the hospital
" Hello, I just got a phone call, saying my parents were a car accident."
" Yes, what are their names?"
" Megan and Keith James"
" Come this way please"
The receptionist led her to a room where she saw her mom.
" Mom!"
" Baby"
Oh My God, Mom, how did this happen." she said as she looked at her mom.
" Baby, I need to tell you something."
" What is it mom?"
" Well I want you to know that I love you baby!…and Keith, he loved you too!…but baby, Keith isn't your real daddy. Baby he adopted you when we got married almost a year after you were born"
"What? How? Why didn't you tell me before? So who is…"
" His name is Matthew Moore Hardy. We dated my senior year and we had you and then 2 months later he left to be a wrestler. That is what he is now, a WWE Wrestler, I am sorry I didn't tell you before"
" Its ok mom it wasn't important, I love you"
Megan smiled at her daughter. She had grown into a beautiful responsible young woman.
" I love you…too!" Megan let go of Ericka's hand and Ericka watched as the life left her mom's body.
One tear fell from Ericka's eye as she left the hospital
So that was it, her parents were gone. She had nothing left. Wait she had something. A name.
Her biological father. Matthew Moore Hardy. Well I guess I should find him huh? She thought to herself.
