Next day
"Wait you have a brother?" Quincy asked confused while making dinner for himself, Valentine, and Valley.
Valentine rubbed her forehead trying to process everything. She felt like she was losing her mind.
How could her parents give a child up for adoption?
Why?
Did they ever intend to tell her?
More why and how's came into her head until Quincy called her name loudly.
"I'm sorry what baby?" Valentine questioned looking at him.
"I asked if you were hungry you can't be stressing like that without food you'll get a headache." Quincy said putting a plate in front of her.
"Thanks baby...did Valley go to sleep?" Valentine asked playing with her steak and mash potatoes on her plate.
"Nah she's in her room watching tv right now." Quincy said sitting across the dining table from her.
"I just feel so like..I don't know I'm confused, I'm angry, in denial everything." Valentine expressed putting a spoonful of mash potatoes in her mouth.
"These taste good baby." Valentine said smiling at the flavor in her mouth.
"Thanks mama but let's focus on you and ur emotions. Is there anything you can recall or remember for childhood?" Quincy asked.
Valentine thought long and hard but drew a blank everytime.
"I don't know him from a can of paint and how did he even find me?" Valentine questioned confused.
"Was he with Eiare for the right reasons or did he know I was in her circle? Like baby this is all too much. My parents died and they died great people I can't imagine that my mother the loving woman she was would give up a child no matter the cause." Valentine said shaking her head explaining to Quincy.
"Well the way I see it do what he ask and get a DNA test figure out if it's all a lie but, it's uncanny how similar you guys look the only difference is his eyes are brighter than your own." Quincy suggested.
Valentine pinched the bridge of her nose trying to breathe.
"And if we're siblings then what? I'm supposed to tell him my life's story exchange memories of childhood I don't know him Quincy!" Valentine snapped.
"So get to know him I'm not saying you gotta show ur wounds me and you still have wounds to uncover I'm just saying he clearly found you for a reason maybe he wants his sister." Quincy said calmly not reacting to her raising her voice.
"But why? Why do I have to get to know him I rather leave it like it's always been, the only child." Valentine said frustrated with him and her supposed brother.
