I was nervous as hell when I saw her walk in the restaurant. But I got to know. I look like them. They look like me. And this is not a coincidence that I ran into her today. I come in Starbucks and order the same drink all the time and never saw her here. Well not until today. I know Rik said it doesn't matter but it matters to me. I got to know why she gave me away. Why she didn't keep in contact with me. Do I have siblings. Just so much to ask and so many thoughts.
Shantel walked over to her and gave her the drink. I saw them looking at me whispering. Then they headed to my table. I haven't been so nervous in my life. I thought I was about to shit on myself. I stood up as they walked over to me.
"You don't have to stand. Ma this is Quincy. Quincy this is my mother Rachael." Shantel said as she introduced them.
Rachael just stared at him. She didn't say a sound.
"Nice to meet you." Quincy said all nervous.
All Rachael could do is just stand there and look.
"Ma? What's wrong? Why are you looking like that? Are you gonna say something?" Shantel asked.
Quincy looked at Shantel and then back at Rachael.
"Is there something wrong? I just wanted to ask you some questions. I told Shantel that we looked alike. I was adopted at birth. I love my moms but I wanted to know who my birth mom was. Did I have other siblings, and why she gave me up. I'm sorry if I threw you off. I just wanted to know was you my mother." Quincy said all in one breath.
Rachael still didn't say anything.
"Ma! What is going on? Are you his birth mother?" Shantel asked out of concern.
"Umm." Rachael said trying to keep it together.
Nothing would come out of her mouth. All she could do is look at Quincy.
"Umm can we take this conversation to the house?" Rachael finally was able to say.
"Sure I can follow you there." Quincy said to her.
"Come on Shan. We got to go." Rachael said grabbing her arm and yanking her out the store.
Getting in the car she crunk up and hit the wheel.
"Ma what is it?"
"I didn't expect this. No, no, no. This can't be happening to me right now."
"What? You're not telling me nothing."
To be honest, I need time to think. Just be quiet please."
Quincy walked over and told Rika and Chris. They all loaded the car and headed behind them in the car.
"What happened in there?" Rika asked.
"I found her. I was right. Shantel is my sister." Quincy said all in one word.
"Are you serious? How did you find that out?"
"I just told her she looked like me and I wanted to talk to her mom. Her mom was on the way to pick her up. She told her and when she walked in I automatically knew it was her. I look like Dad but man I have so many features of her." Q said dazing off.
"Wow. Well I'm happy you are getting closure. But I hope this is the right thing you are doing. It got to be a reason why mom and dad didn't tell you about her. She has never tried to contact you before. Even though mom adopted you. If I was a mother I would want to know about my child. I will want to grow with him." Rika explained.
"Babe let him be. If this is what he wants, let him. You can't be the judge of that. Hell I would want to know too. You don't want him out here dating his siblings or something. They need to know each other." Chris said trying to prove a point.
"You know you didn't have to say it like that but I see your point." Rika said crossing her arms over her chest.
They rode behind them for a little while. As they pulled up to the house everyone was shocked. It was a nice house. Nice cars in the driveway and all.
"Damn she living like this? And couldn't see about me? Wow this is something." Quincy said as he continued to look around.
They parked the cars and got out. They all walked to the door behind Shantel. They walked in and was even more surprised. You can tell by this house layout she was rolling in some money. They walked in the guest living room and had a seat.
"So you guys are his brothers and sisters?" Rachael asked nervously.
"No. Just me. I'm his sister. This is my fiancé Chris." Rika corrected.
"Nice to meet you guys. Wait aren't you Chris Brown?" Rachael asked.
"Yes ma'am. That's me."
"Omg I'm a big fan. Can I take a picture with you?" She asked standing with her camera on her phone.
"Sure." Chris said standing by her and taking the picture.
They sat back down and she posted it on her Instagram. Putting her phone down she took a deep breath.
"Quincy there is so much you don't know. It's kind of hard to explain." Rachael starts out.
"How hard is it huh? You didn't keep your only son. Or am I the only son? Is there more than Shantel and I? Did you even care about my well-being? Did you love me?" Quincy asked getting a little emotional.
"Yes I loved you. I wanted to keep my son. It was some things that transpired and..." Rachael said before she was cut off.
"What you trying to say? My mom and dad has something to do with this?" Rik asked getting a little attitude.
"Wait now. Don't come at my mom like that. She trying to tell you the truth." Shantel said getting offended by the questions that was being asked.
"Stop it y'all. Let her answer. This is not about y'all or no one else. It's about me." Quincy asked.
"I had to give you up. Your father made sure of that." Rachael spilled.
