(Girlfriend)
— Kendra’s POV —
Its real. Its really real.
I have a family.
I really do.
I came down from Rico’s car and the first person
my eyes landed on was someone that looks exactly like me.
What the f**k? What am I doing in that boy’s body?
Or are we siblings?
We look alike too much.
Mom! Dad! He yelled and they came running out.
“Its my baby” I heard the woman yell as she ran to
embrace me but I moved back.
How will I allow her hug me?
I mean not too soon because we really don’t no
each other.
I need to understand their reasons first.
Their reasons for abandoning me till am old enough to make my own decisions.
She looked a bit annoyed that I didn’t let her hug
me but dismissed the feelings immediately.
“Kendra” she called and took her hand to my hair.
“You’re here” i heard the man say as he
approached us.
I kept mute and the boy that looks like me kept
starring at me.
“Let’s go in dear” he added with a smile and started climbing the stairs up to the house.
I was reluctant to follow them but Rico held my
hand and pulled me along.
I gave him a ‘are you sure look’ and he nodded
positively.
We got into the sitting room which was really
beautiful.
Everything was beautiful arranged with a big flat TV
screen.
So my supposed parents are rich and I had to
suffer all those years alone.
Rico and I sat down together in a two sitters couch and I refused to let go of his hand.
He made to leave me but I didn’t let him.
Gosh he can’t leave me alone.
“So kendra, how have you been doing?” The man
asked sitting in an opposite couch.
“I’m..I’m…fine” I stuttered not knowing the reason
why I did.
The boy that looks like me got in and sat in on a
couch at our right hand.
“You’re looking really pretty baby” the woman said
flashing me a smile.
“Um..ken, you might be surprised to see your look
alike but you two are actually twins” the man said
and I took my eyes to the boy.
Truth. I see no lie in it.
So I’m actually a twin born?
But, why was I the one abandoned?
Rico freed his hand from mine and stood up.
“Huh! Rico” I called also standing up.
“I don’t belong here. This is your family face them
alright” he cooed and I shook my head negatively.
“Please don’t leave me alone” I pleaded.
I just couldn’t face them alone.
“I’m not leaving you, I’ll be in the car so whatever
decisions you make you’ll come tell me alright” he
added and pecked my forehead then left.
I stood fazed starring at his fading image.
This is gonna get tougher.
“So baby” the woman giggled like a new born and
came to me on the couch.
Its like she was waiting for Rico to do what he just
do.
She made me sit beside her and she took my
hands in hers.
“You must be thinking we abandoned you but we didn’t, things moved the wrong way and you ended up an orphanage.”
“We are so sorry, I was the only one that know that you were alive.”
“Your father and big brother didn’t no until few days back. Immediately your father heard of you he
decided we come look for you immediately tho I’ve been looking for you secretly” she rushed her
words.
“Please baby, forgive us. Forgive us for all the
unimaginable pains you suffered please” she
pleaded while looking straight into my eyes.
“Give her a break Victoria. She’s still confused,
leave her” the man who is supposedly my father
chipped in.
“I wish we can stay like this together.”
“With me starring into your eyes. This pretty eyes of
yours” she beamed and took her hand to my
lashes.
“Victoria” I heard him say again but the woman
wasn’t listening to him.
“Lemme go get you the meal I cooked. I don’t no what you like so I prepared a whole lot” she smiled then stood up and disappeared.
My gaze returned to my supposed father.
“I’m sorry kid, your mother is just too happy for your return.”
“You were taken away from us the day she gave
birth to you and your brother here” he said and
pointed to the boy.
“We thought you died tho because in our hearts we mourned you but Victoria your mother explained to me few days back that you were still alive.”
“So, without much wasting of time we decided to
come get you” he explained in the calmest voice
ever.
“I no it’ll take a lot of time and effort to accept us but I hope you do ken.”
“Now, let’s go to the dinning, your mom is setting
the table” he explained standing up.
He started heading the the dinning leaving the boy and I.
“Hey” he cooed coming closer to me.
“Hey” I replied my gaze on him.
He got to me and squatted to my size cause I was
still sitting down.
“Welcome home” he said warmly and smiled.
“I never imagined I’ll be with my twins sister today
cause I was made to believe you died.”
“But, thank goodness you’re alive and well.”
“Mom and dad has been really worried about you
especially mom.”
“We love you a lot because you’re our blood and
family. But I no it’ll take time for you to accept us
but think about while in the dinning” he said and
patted my hair.
He took my hand in his and stood up making me
stand too.
“Let’s us, they’ll be waiting for us now” he cooed
and I nodded and started following him.
We got to the dinning area and I saw different
dishes on the table.
It’s as if the meals were prepared to welcome the
president cause they are too much.
“Here baby” the woman – my mom beckoned on me to sit next to her.
Dad sat at the beginning of the table mom sat next to him while my twin brother sat facing mom and I.
“So which one? Do you like this one” the woman
asked bringing out a dish filled with grilled fish.
“Or this?” She brought out meats and vegetables.
She kept bringing out different dishes to my front
while I noticed the boy – my twin smiling.
He is probably smiling at the way she’s behaving.
“Victoria, let her choose” dad chipped in as he was also starring at us.
“Oh please Charles” she retorted ignoring what he
said.
“I’ll take this one” I finally spoke for the first time to
her and she placed her hand on her chest starring
at me.
“You finally talked to me sweetheart” She smiled
and rubbed my cheek.
“So this one?” She said bringing forward the meal I pointed to.
“Um..yes” I replied and she kept it in my front
pushing other dishes aside.
She didn’t eat but watched me eat.
It was kind of weird but I guess I’ll have to accept it.
They are my family anyways.
“Oh my! We didn’t call your boyfriend to eat” she
suddenly exclaimed making all of us look at her.
“Boyfriend?”
