THE RIGHT CHOICE

Meeting My Twins Parents

After the call with Mine, I decided to chill at the porch to just process everything in. Hey? Jackson greets  as he takes a sit next to me . We were awkwardly quite for a moment when he breaks  the silence.  Still can't believe I dated twins , he says that laughing at himself.  I end  up laughing at that too, Yeah ...you did Dude. Can I ask you for a favour Jackson? He studies me for a while and then nodes.

Can you please tell me more  about my twin , no one knew her better than you ? He went through his wallet and hands me this hilarious photo.  Ooh My God,  this can't...Totally her, he cuts me  with this wide smile .  She had this Buck list and one of her wishes was to embrace her dark side . Buck list ? I ask confused, why would she need a buck list , isn't it like  for people who know they will be dying soon  and just need to fulfill their hearts desires? Kelly was, sick... she had Leukaemia. 

What ? No one told me about that important news. I felt my rage back . Hey...he gets a hold of my hands but in a friendly way. It's because of that Leukaemia that she got to know about you. She knew about me ? I ask more to myself than him. He nods  lovingly.  She had hopes , she always told me she knew you will save her, so she had nothing to worry about . I don't know... if he knows this but knowing she thought I will be saving her is killing me here. I feel  tears spilling from my eyes and I wipe them roughly that my cheeks had a lot to say about it , I didn't save her . I could fell those words burning my throat. You didn't know about her Kelly , it's not your fault .

Was she at least able to complete her Buck list? I ask sadly and hopefully. No ...there was one thing left.  What?I ask curiously and heart brokenly. She never got to meet you , that was the first thing in her Buck list, she had planned everything in her mind , what she will say to you and all that .  The day her investigator called it was pouring so hard, we ended up fighting with each other due to the fact she  insisted on meeting up with them and over something else stupid.  She left upset with me and ...I didn't follow her , I put my ego before her. He said it so painfully,  one can easily tell his still haunted by that . Am sure she has forgiven you already Jack . But you also  need to forgive yourself too.

I couldn't gather the courage to ask how the accident happened because I knew it will kill me . You were right he suddenly says  . About what ? I inquired.  Have always and will forever love her, sorry I tried to turn you into her or dated you because you reminded me slightly of  her. All forgotten, said that with a smirk .

Arrived at the Hugh's house early since Mom Stephanie had this epic idea of having a dinner party,  where I will get to meet my twins parents.  Am so anxious but so excited too.  Jack told me my twin had a little brother, can't wait to meet him and hopefully get to know him a little more.  My family will also be coming and of course Mine will also be attending with his family and my friends will be attending too. I have been trying to help as much as I can . When I first entered my room in their house I knew my Mom had something to do with it , everything I love was included in this room . She really is my mom no DNA can say otherwise.

The guest will be arriving any moment now and the boys were dressed to kill , they really looked amazing . I wore a floral dress that Stephanie laid out for me , It's still hard for me to call her Mom , I find myself most of the time calling her by her name and I thank God she's not pushing it .My parents were the first to arrive  together  with my friends and I have never been happier in seeing them , I know it has only been a few hours but ...it honestly felt like forever. I hug them tightly,  God I have  missed you guys so much . Both of my parents smile at that , I could see some hurt in my other set of parent . You guys better be ready for the amazing foods Stephanie prepared , they are mouth watering.  With that I earned a smile from them .

Mine and his family arrived minutes later after my family . I haven't seen him since yesterday night , after greeting his family they left us alone . He comes hugging me and planting kisses all over my face, I pretend to push him away but he hugs me tightly.  We laugh over stupid jokes we always  tell each other. We end up separating when the door bell rings and my heart beat shots up . They are here, I actually screamed at that . Mine , you got this , they are going to love you. I smile at that and reach for the door .

I saw how taken back they were at my sight I look more like their daughter  after all. Tears began to spill for Kelly's Mom, she had long black hair like ours , a bit slim , Emerald Green  eyes and from her eyes ,one could easily say she hasn't slept well in a long time ,that with sadness in them . But overall she's stunning and her smile just made me feel different emotions. Her Dad has thick brown hair , light blue eyes and he too looked drained.  Her little brother has blue eyes like his Dad , black hair like his mom , if am guessing his age right, he might be thirteen years old.

He comes hugging me introducing himself as Max . We found you he cries out , Mom .Dad , we found her ,they all had tears in their eyes.  I found myself crashing them into a big fat  hug . They raised my twin , they are my superheroes for that .  They introduce themselves to me . My twins surname was William.  That name is going to be one of my favourites for a long time . After the introductions we got to sit down and enjoy Stephanie's amazing dishes . Stephanie ends up serving me my food and hands  it motherly to me,  before I could even get a bite out of the mouth watering food, Mrs. William comes taking the food from me , my Mom was also at a speed of lightning next to me .

What is going on here? Everyone at the table were looking at  both of them  shocked.  She's allergic to nuts and garlic,  they both say  in union. Am highly allergic to those two thing , I almost  once lost my life to them . I guess my twin was allergic too. Mom was now examining if I was okay , she has always been on the watch with everything I eat , since she's the one that almost  killed me with them after feeding me them. Am okay Mom, I hardly had a taste,  promise. Mom was now hugging me as if trying to protect me from nuts and garlic allergies.

Stephanie was so in shock,  she's apologised a thousand time and has locked herself in the kitchen after taking my plate from Mrs. William. My Mom and Mrs.William follow her . I somehow overheard their conversation when I followed them ,since I was very  concerned about her . I find her crying , claiming she almost killed  me in the few hours I have been with her.  It's not your fault , I almost killed my daughter too, Mrs. William said sympathetically and my mom also added she almost killed me too . So you see , we are not perfect parents , we learn from our mistakes.  Here, my Mom hands  her a list , she goes through it and smiles at her. Thank you now I know everything she's allergic to.

I smiled at that , Stephanie shouldn't be too hard on herself,  most of the time , I find myself buying chocolate with nuts forgetting am allergic myself .

Is she okay ? Mine inquires.  She's shaken up but she'll be okay .And are you okay ? He asks concerned and still shaken up himself.Am okay , I got lucky today ,said that chuckling.  That's not funny Mine,He says  seriously all jokes set aside.Okay, am sorry . Told you I will make it for that wedding,  nothing can stop me not even allergies.  He pulls me close to him. What's that on your hands ? He asks .Max gave it to me , Kelly had written a letter to me , still haven't been able to read it , mostly because I know am going to breakdown.
