What in the world was happening? I
thought my heart couldn't beat any faster but here I am, ready to go into cardiac arrest.

Cole just called the witch his mother. That's what happened. This makes no sense at all, unless she was married before she met my father. Oh lord he isn't even my father nor is she my mother I'm going to have to refer to them as something else from now on. Maybe their real names? Jade and Aaron. Well she's still a witch but Jade the witch, you feel me?

"What? Did you just call her mother? Is she your mom? How is that possible? Why was I not told before?" I finally spit out clearing the awkward silence between everyone.

Nobody had the guts to look at me or answer me. I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration.

"I thought you knew all these years, the real reason why I did everything but after I found out-"

"Until you found out I was an orphan?" I spat and he looked down sheepishly.

I couldn't believe him, it wasn't even a good reason to do the things he did. He thought because she had me, I was the reason she wasn't in his life anymore. Was she in his life though? Was she in on this?

I walked up to her and demanded that she looked at me.

"Is he your son? When did you have him?" I wasn't afraid that she would hit me because her dearest husband was standing right there.

"Yes he is my son from my first marriage but I left everything, including him." Her voice was monotone and held no emotions or regret. She was truly an awful woman, her ways disgusted me.

"That's awful! You knew about this?" I ask Aaron. He was in his late thirties and two heads taller than I was, he had facial hair and a comb over haircut. He was good looking for his age since he took good care of himself but I can't even recall the last time I saw him or spent time with him. 

He swiftly nodded and I screamed, how could they do this to him? Do they have no heart? No soul? To think a few days ago I was thankful to him and genuinely looked up to him. He was just as disgusting as her. Sure he clothed me and fed me but he failed terribly as a father and in this case a human.

"I can't believe I spent my life waiting to see you again only to be this disappointed. I thought you wanted me. I thought it was a mistake but no you knew about me this entire time! Father is dead and so is my mother." Cole outbursts and I now understand the true pain behind the reasons he jumped. I bet there were more secrets he was keeping about his life but everything seemed to be fucked up in his life as well.

"Oh he's dead? I'm sorry to hear about that but good riddance."

I could have throttled her, she was so insensitive, he just lost everything important to him in one day and here she was rubbing it in. Sure we don't know how Mr Braxton was as a person and it could be true but don't say it to a grieving person.

"Please just do what you do best and leave!" Cole's voice breaks as he utters those words, the contrast of emotion in this room was scary. The fact that she didn't react to her own flesh and blood in pain sickened me.

Cole was shattered and so alone, I hope there was some family member that could come in and take care of him because I was ready to flee from this room. Everything from today was so overwhelming. First I got bitten by a snake, got crutches, met Cole's father that told me more about my past, Cole's father dies, Cole tries to commit suicide and now we find out he's related to my adopted mother.

WHAT IS TODAY EVEN. I bet it was because I didn't forward that chain message in 2011 that's catching up to me.

"Do you have any family members that you can call?" I ask Cole gently and he shakes his head before telling me that he was fine by himself.
