"We haven't talked about it yet." Beca said quietly, averting her eyes from Chloe as she looked down at her plate.
The redhead subtly shook her head in frustration, biting her bottom lip. Since their last conversation about it, Chloe has tried her best not to show her fiancée how frustrated she was because she knew it would just upset the brunette.
After dinner, Chloe, Hailee, Stacie and Emily all went back to the hotel while Beca wanted to spend some time with her grandmother which mostly consisted of looking through old photos.
"Aww look at you and Emily here." Jane cooed as she handed her granddaughter another photo.
In the picture, 5 year old Emily was quite happily sitting on a then 8 year old Beca's lap. "Aww." The 24 year old smiled at it in her hand before passing it back. "Hey Grandma, do you have any photos of my mom?" She asked quietly, feeling slightly awkward about it.
The older woman was slightly taken aback, taking a moment to examine her granddaughter's expression. "I think it's only fair to show you, sweetheart. That father of yours has kept you in the dark about her for long enough." Jane sighed as she searched through her photo albums.
"Do I look like her?" Beca wondered warily and suddenly she felt a lump in her throat. She had never seen this woman before and the reality was just hitting her now.
"Oh a lot." Jane said, smiling down at the photo album she picked up before flicking through it.
The brunette sighed heavily, throwing herself back into the couch.
"Here." The grey haired woman placed the album in Beca's lap and the younger woman's eyes flickered down to the photo.
"Woah." The brunette whispered as she sat up properly, taking a closer look at the photo. It was a picture of her mom holding her in the hospital bed the day she was born with her dad sitting on the edge of the bed, leaning over her. She really did look like her, it was quite scary actually. The 24 year old glanced underneath the photo where there was a small caption: 'John, Elena and baby Rebeca. August 9th 1997.' "Rebeca." Beca said, sticking two fingers in her mouth and pretending to gag.
"Stop it." Jane laughed, playfully slapping her granddaughter's arm. "You know, you're older now than what your mother is in that photo." The older woman found the brunette's shocked expression rather amusing.
"Huh? I thought dad was like 29 when he had me?" Beca asked in confusion.
"He was and to be honest your grandpa and I thought Elena was around his age too until she gave birth to you. Turns out she was only 19."
Beca furrowed her brow. Her dad knocked up someone 10 years younger than him and he still had the nerve to give her shit about being with Chloe.
"He lied to us and told us she worked at the university like he did." Jane explained, flicking through more photos of the couple.
Realisation hit Beca and her eyes widened. "She was a student there?" She asked and Jane nodded. "He's unbelievable." Beca actually laughed. How could he be such a hypocrite?!
"They were so in love though." The older woman smiled down at the photos.
"And I'm so in love with Chloe but that didn't stop him making my life miserable for being with her." The brunette was trying her best to suppress her anger in front of her grandma but it was proving to be difficult.
"Hey honey, calm down. All of that is in the past now, okay? You're marrying Chloe, you don't have to worry about anything else." Jane reassured, rubbing the younger woman's back.
