WALK THROUGH WALLS

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEVEN

The room was really prepared for this. All my aunties and uncles were present. My cousins too and my grandpa was sited at his usual chair. The screen was on, and my dad and mum were on via zoom. Stacy was also there. All my brothers were there, and Brenda was there too.

"It is good that everyone is here. Isaid that this secret was long overdue, but you all shut me up." Tae's mum was the first to talk," look, the poor girl had to hear it from of all the people, Sulli. I have always hated that woman."

"It is okay, we understand your hate, or is it because she married the love of your life, that is why you are so hateful?" Boojin asked her which made everyone laugh.

"Who's love of life. My beloved husband has everything I have dreamt about in a man. Can't you see the beautiful bundles of joy that we have together, Tae dear, stand as a testament to the Lee that I am strong." She said which made Tae who was as of now annoyed and shy to stand making my brothers to start making fun of him.

"Mother, I am now a big boy." Tae said.

"You will always be my bundle of joy. Wait have you been fed well by this family." Tae's mum asked.

"Seriously Sheila, what are you insinuating about my family. Do you even know how long the boys have been here. They were the ones who organized all this, so how can we starve your bundle of joy." Boojin asked.

"Let her be. She loves her youngest son and we have always known that about Sheila. My dear Sheila, you might not have married a son of our Lee family but remember your husband is a Lee, so..." My grandpa said which made everyone laugh.

"Ok then father, you win. It was just to light up the moment. Now back to business of the day. I had to even drag Taesun with me today to clarify some issues." Tae's mum said and then looked at me," My dear Lensah, I am really sorry for the shock that must have hit you. We are really sorry for all this. Hellen, please now take charge, I think I have made it this far to smoothen the way for you."

"Thank you, my friend. Taesun, I am sorry for dragging you here away from your commitment." My mum said looking at Tae's big brother.

"It is ok aunty Hellena. I was happy being that I get the chance to meet the Lee family again and all these musketeers. I see that little Brenda also came and never told me anything, so it is in a way a good time to pick some bones with all of them." Taesun said.

"How can he call me little? Taesun, you will pay for that sentence. I was to even leave South Korea tonight, but this happened. I knew you will make a mole out of an ant hill. Next time I visit, I will not tell you." Brenda said.

"I will tell you bro, don't worry. "I said which made Brenda glare at me.

"I will hold you to that dear Lensah." Taesun said and then my mum continued.

"Lensah, I am sorry my dear for this sad news that you heard about your biological father. I didn't want to hide it from you, we were waiting for the right time to tell you everything but when what happened to you that led to you having Asenath, I did not know how to tell you. I am not saying that it was the right thing but..." My mother started sobbing.

"Sorry Lenny for all this. I know it is all our fault, but it was all for the reason that we did not want you to be hurt after hearing about your background." My dad said which did not sit well with me.

"I am a grown woman with a child, but you still think that anything under the skies will shock me." I asked.

"I don't think your parents mean it like that Lensah." Uncle Jay said.

"So, why can't they just tell me the whole story without beating around the bushes." I said shouting which made everyone to be stunned.

"Hey, young girl, there are elders here so mind your manners." Aunty Myung said which made me look at her.
