Christopher Fernández POV:

He looked so familiar, then it ring the bell. He looked just like me and he acts just like me.

" Brandon we'll talk about this later, now go in and wait or no ice cream." Beth said sternly.

" Is he...? My child?" I said cannot believe what's going on.

After what seems forever she finally opened her mouth.

"Chris, listen-"

" Just answer me. Is he? Or is he not?" Chris gritted out.

"Yes, but-"

" You're the same, you're the same self-centred bitch who left me for the sake of your greed!"
I yelled unable to hold in.

Tears fall down her cheek, she looked at me and said

" Yes I am. So what ? I am nothing to you anyways."

I so wanted to slap her at the moment but I can't. I didn't want to hurt her, i can never hurt her.

I walked away. I don't where but not here.

Elizabeth Costa POV:

I was totally shock that Brand came out but since Chris saw him already I can't hide from him any longer. He looks just like Chris.

" Why? Why did you keep it from me?" Chris asked looking hurt.

I kept quiet.

He then went on " You're the same, you're the same self -centred bitch who left me for the sake of your greed!" I flinch at his words.

He don't know the truth, he can't know the truth. So I had to be cold and say

" Yes I am. So what? I am nothing to you anyways."

He walked away without saying anything. That's when I broke down.

I feel helpless.
I feel guilty.
I feel selfish.
I feel pain.

I can't even help myself with my own feelings yet I want to help him. I feel guilty, why am I lying to him? Why do I only care about my own thought? Did I ask him about his opinion on which would he rather choose? His child and get hurt by the truth of his foster parents? Or He rather get kept in the dark, not knowing anything and still have the innocent image of his foster parents,but not getting to know his child. I cried my heart out. I couldn't keep it in any longer. I really feel the urge to catch up with him to tell him the truth but I can't. I don't want to hurt him.
