Alivia's POV:
When I woke up this morning, I had to ask my mom about all of this. The connections, how I all of the sudden have a mysterious twin. It all doesn't make any sense to me. I decided to text my mom as soon as I woke up. I knew she wouldn't text me right away, but it was worth a shot. I was right. She didn't text back right away, so while I was waiting I decided to shower. When I got out, I checked my phone and I had a text. I opened it and sure enough, it was from my mom. She told me that she couldn't explain it all in text and that I should call her. She also said that she thought I was old enough to hear the 'truth' whatever that is. I said ok and that I would call her after I ate my breakfast. After I ate my breakfast, I picked up my phone to call her and I was shaking because I didn't know what she was going to say. I defiantly didn't know what the 'truth' was. Was it something bad? Or something good? Scary? Or sad? I was nervous, my heart was beating a million miles per hour and I didn't know what to do. I finally built up the courage to call her and I heard her voice fill my ear, "Hello?" She asked as she picked up the phone. "Hey, Mom, so what did you want to talk to me about?" I asked her afraid of what she was going to say next. "Well, sweetie, I didn't know this at the time, but I took a double-look at your birth certificate and..." Her voice kind of trailed off. "And WHAT?!" I asked demanding an answer. "And it turns out that your real parents are Stacy and Mike Blakely." My heart just dropped to my stomach, I didn't know what to say next. I guess my mom picked up on the silence and she filled it with, "I guess it actually turns out you were switched at birth." She explains. "So what do I do now?" I asked. "Well, that's up to you. You could come back home to Texas or you could stay there in New Jersey. Of course, you could always come back and visit anytime and we would always keep in touch. I'm not forcing you to make up your mind right now. Just maybe before you have to go back to school in a few days. I know it's a lot to think about. Just make sure you consult Sade before you decide, this is a big decision and she is your best friend." "Ok. Mom, I will." I responded. "Love you, honey." "Love you too, Mom." I said as I hung up the phone. This was a big decision, I had to choose between my best friend who I knew for my whole life, or my twin sister who I just met a few days ago. I defiantly wanted to talk to Em, the twins, and Dee before I made my decision. I texted them and asked if we could all meet somewhere to talk and this was very very important. They said sure we could meet at Emmaleigh's house and we left immediately. When we got there, everyone else was already there. I told them everything my mom told me about being switched at birth and having to choose between Texas and New Jersey. They said, "Don't worry, Liv, just follow your heart." Ugg... I hate it when people say just follow your heart. "That doesn't help guys!" I said annoyed. I looked at Sade and she could tell I was worried. She looked at me and said, " Liv, it doesn't matter to me. We can always visit each other it will never be goodbye forever." I took that to heart. She was my best friend and we have known each other for our whole lives and I was supposed to know Emmaleigh for my whole life, but some how I didn't. We have 14 years to make up for and I wanted them to start right now. I have decided I wanted to stay in New Jersey and peruse my life how it was meant to be.I didn't want to come out and say it right then and there to them, but I did want to tell my mom right away. I acted like my phone had buzzed and I picked it up and texted my mom that I would come back on our scheduled flight in four days and pack then come back here. But where would I stay? Have I made the right decision? Luckily I hadn't sent it yet, so I erased the message and kept thinking about it. I haven't even met Em's mom yet. I wonder if she's told her about me yet. I hope I can meet her soon. I really want to stay here, but if I haven't met Em's mom, what if she doesn't like me? Well, I mean how couldn't she like me I am just like Em. Oh well. I will text Em later after we get back to our hotel to see when I could meet her mom. When we got back to the hotel I did just that. I can't wait to solve this sudden, but yet never ending mystery.
