"Mom" I said "are you ok"? "Yes dear" she said ". I just need a little rest".
3 days earlier
Hey mom it's me. I and the rest of the family are coming over because dad said you needed help, love you, bye. It was a normal day in Alabama until I got that call from dad. I mean my mom never needed my help. She always would tell me "I don't need help" or "go play I got it". Every since then I didn't think that she ever needed me. As soon as we got to her house I told the children to go sit down on the couch. When they go and sit down she tells me she needs help cleaning put her attic.
So I told the children to go play or watch TV. They did as I said and we went up to the attic and when we got up there, there was spiders, ants, and many other bugs. It took us 3 hours to clean the attic. There were boxes and boxes of stuff in the attic. Some of the stuff she didn't need like a lava lamp, a twin bunk bed or a half working clock.
When we were done, we went down stairs with the kids. When we got down there they were watching SpongeBob or some mess like that. While they had their face in the TV we made lunch. We sat down and talked for a bit and that's when she says "I know I've been raising you and I know that your kids have grown attached to me, but Tiffany I'm not your mom". I get up and go outside for some air. When I come back in she sits me down and tells me that she's my aunt. All my life I thought that she was my mom. As I try to process that through my head I start feeling dizzy. "I'm going to go get some water", I said. As I walk into the kitchen I started crying. "I thought she was my mom" I thought "Have I been lied to all my life". After I got my water I go back into the living room and sit down. My aunt says to me "my mom lives in Alabama and that she gave me up because she was badly sick". I ask my aunt to watch after my children. She asked my why. I told her I'm going to go find my mom. "NO" she says. But before she can say that I'm half way down the street. She calls me on my cell and I just put her on voice mail.
When I got to the airport I decided to listen to the voice mail. It said "Hey call me when you get this". So I called her back, when she answered she had worry in her voice. "Do not go to Alabama, your mom told me to keep you away from there". "Why" I asked "because… because she doesn't want you to see her the way she is". "How is she" I asked "She's not the best". That's all I needed to hear. "Um I got to go but I'll call you back". Then I hung up. When I got on the plane I instantly took a seat so we could take off. The faster the better.
When we took off it was 3:30 in the afternoon. Flying on the plane was fun. I had a nap and played a card game with this nice person named Melissa. It was really fun. When we landed it was 5:00 in the morning. So for the last couple of hours I just rented a hotel room to rest in. 5 minutes after I fell asleep my phone rings. "Hello" I answered half asleep. "Hey it's me your aunt just calling to check up on you. So where are you"? "I'm in Bama in a hotel room". WHAT WHY ARE YOU IN A HOTEL ROOM IN BAMA? "Because I want to find my real mother. I want to know why she gave me up to you". "I mean I could've helped her, I could've made her better with help of the doctors and all I get is lies. Good night I'm going back to sleep." Ok night she said. "Wait what's my mom's name" I yelled? Her name is Katelin. That is what I heard from her.
As I look up her name in a phone book I find her Katelin Smith. I go to her house to talk to her, but she's not there. So I leave and come back fifteen minutes later and she's home. I knock on the door and she lets me in. She says I look very familiar. I tell her I'm her daughter and she just burst into tears and starts saying "I missed you so very, very much." Yea ok I thought. "You have grown into a beautiful young lady. Do you have any kids", she asks. "Yes I have 2 a boy and a girl" I said. "Oh that's good to here." She said. So how did you find me"?
My aunt has a big mouth and told me everything. She told me that you were sick and that you gave me up. I gave you up so you wouldn't worry about me that much cause I love you". If you love me why did you give me away "? "BECAUSE" she said "I DIDN'T WANNT YOU TO WORRY ABOUT ME OR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENED TO ME. I HAD YOU TO LATE AND THAT'S MY FAULT". You and your aunt were so happy together I didn't want to come between that. It killed me when I gave you away. Every sense then I have been living by myself in my own house, doing my own work and paying my own bills without help, and yes I am badly sick. I have cancer. That's why I didn't want you to come find me or for your aunt to tell you where I am". How long have you had cancer"? I asked after she told me. She said since she had my older brother Ayato. She said that he was the only one that knew where she was. After that long talk we made lunch and watched T.V.
As time went by we watched T.V. After that we cleaned up our mess and went to bed. We hugged each other good night and went to bed. When we got up the next morning the sun was all the way in the sky. When I looked at the time it was 3:00 in the afternoon. So instead of eating breakfast we went out for lunch. The sky was a perfect blue color. We talked about what she did. She had a job at Kmart and she was happy with it. When we got home we cleaned up a bit and watched T.V. That night when we went to bed I fell asleep perfectly. Sometime in the middle of the night my mom I meant my aunt called me to check up on me but I just put her on voice mail. When I checked it she had said "Hey how have you been? I've been good. Your kids are behaving really well. They all miss you they also said hi and they love you so much". I loved hearing that. My mom was finally awake and went to the kitchen. She was limping and she looked pale and was hot.
"Mom" I said "are you ok"? "Yes dear" she said "mommas going to be just fine. I just need a little rest". "Ok just checking" I said not believing her.
Sometime the next morning when my mom was walking to her room she just collapsed. I went to go pick her up and you could tell she was dying. As she was lying in my lap she told me everything is going to be ok and she is fine. I knew she was lying. She told me she loved me and died in my arms. I didn't know what to do I was just mad, angry, sad, and frustrated all at the same time but I was mostly scared and sad. I tried I could to wake her up while tears where running down my face. "WAKE UP, WAKE UP, WAKE UP YOU JUST HAVE TO PLEASE, PLEASE WAKE UP! Nothing worked. I called 911 so they could try to revive her but nothing worked. I was just so sad I didn't know what to do.
I called up my aunt and told her what happened. She said that she would fly over here as soon as possible. I thanked her and thanked her. She said that she would also bring the kids and would explain everything to the kids on the way here. I told her NO! You can't tell them anything it will make them cry. Leave them with my brother Ayato. He's in Idaho but by time I had said that she had already hung up and was on her way here with the kids.
