Tiana's pov:
December 9
On my way to the varenda as I takes off my shoes ,the door was wide open so I know they're here
Lifting the bag with my uniforms and shoes as I walks through the front door.
I noticed a middle-aged man sitting on the couch, surrounded by business documents.
"Good evening " I greets him
He looked up and caught my eye, flashing a warm smile.
"Hey there kiddo!"he said, his voice friendly.
"Tiana go change and come back come meet yuh family " my mother said coming to the living room
"Ok" I nodded as I went to my room and change into an pink shorts an a blue plain shirt
"Wonder a which family she a talk bout" I hissed as I opend the bag and takes out my 3 suits of uniform 3blouse 3 skirts 2 belts
Putting them back in the bag and remove my shoes box as I puts it into my closet and closed it
Opening my food pan as I picks up an banana chips and went downstairs.
He stood up, towering over me with his short frame, and extended a hand.
'I'm davario . I've been helping your mom with some...organizing.' I raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the ambiguous explanation
but davario kind eyes puts me at ease. "I'm tiana" I said as my mother comes into the living room
Mom's eyes were filled with a deep sadness as she sat beside me
"I need to tell you something" she began, her voice barely above a whisper.
Ayye when time them English talking yah come in ano nth nawmal..my mother speaks English mostly.
''The man you've been talking to, davario...he's your father''
I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, my mind reeling with shock and confusion. ''Huh?'' I stuttered, trying to process this revelation
Mom's grip on my hands tightened. "Your brother know him but you don't know him,Tiana .
"So after 18 years now him choose fe come back? and me don't need a father me grow without one and me ago continue grow without one" I speaks as I plays with my chips bag
"Listen me naa beg yuh fe accept him but just try understand yuh mada" she sobs
"After me have kimani him an him have a great bond until now but we did stop talk and when me have you me never want tell him until yuh turn one"
"So how me just a know all a this?" I asked as I felt the crying lump in my throat
"I didn't know how to tell you. He's been trying to make amends, to be a part of your life, but I've been scared".she cries as I looks at her and him
"I don't know if you'd be ready to forgive him, to accept him."
Accept ?
"So mommy after 18 years him know when me a 1 if yuh did tell mi when me a 15 me wouldn't too feel no way but when mi a 18?" I chuckle as davario sighed
"Me deven know what is an father's love and a you me a do this fa" I wiped my tears as kimani comes in
"Evening momm- " he begins but stops when he saw me with an shocked facial expression
"All a long you know everything?" I got up and shubs kimani in his chest
Knowing I did something wrong my mother got's up and parted us.
