Continuation
Kendra POV

"Are you really my mother?" I questioned.

"Yes and I'm so glad to see you," She responded.

"How can I be so sure?"

"Come on let's take a walk. I'll tell you everything." She said. I nodded and followed her.

"You see Kendra, when you were little, your father always came home late. He told me that he had some work to do and that's why he came late. I knew something was up because he always came home smelling like alcohol. I decided to find out if he really gone to work. One night, he kissed me goodbye and I waited until he was gone, then I called the office to see if he was their. They said he was sick so they didn't let him come today. When he came home, I asked,      "Where have you been?" He responded, "To work and I'm tired. Did you cook anything because I'm starving?" I told him that he is being disrespectful and that his boss said he wasn't at work but he denied it. We ended up arguing and-

"You both separated and I had to live with dad." I said then hugged her. "Mom, I miss you. Everyday I would cry and wished that I could see you one last time."

"I missed you too. After you left, I lost my job and became broke. I didn't know what to do. I was so stresses out."

"So how you ended up in Paris?"

"I searched the web and applied a job at a Los Angeles Orphan home. Where I played the piano for the orphans. One day, I was playing the piano and a woman came up to me and said,"Excuse me but what are you doing here? You sound amazing."
I replied, "Oh thank you, I'm just here playing piano for the children."

"You should be playing for an audience with this talent. Please come with me to France and perform. With talent like this you can earn a fortune." I agreed and went to France.

After some years, Mrs. Saint-Pierre and I became friends. I played the piano for famous people so now live in Paris.

"Oh mom that's awesome so your dream came true."

"To see my darling is my dream. I didn't know where you were but I'm glad I found you."

"Aww mom, I'm glad you're here. Let's go back at the house." We walked back to the house and I saw Alexis came up to me.

"Kendra!" Alexis shouted "Where were you?"

"I went for a walk with my mom. You okay?" I responded.

"Yeah and that's your mom? She's beautiful. What is she doing her though?"

"She lives her; Vanessa's mother and her are close friends. I guess she's visiting her."

"Oh that's awesome. I got to tell you something"

"What is it?" I asked

"Well.. Um... Issac and I are... Dating now and I think Nichole is crazy in love with Issac"

"What makes you say that?"

"I saw her dropped a mini diary so I picked it up and started reading it."
