He Understands Me | j•s (Book One) | WATTYS's 2018 FANFICTION

{3} Okay

After hearing the truth about my family, I was asked a very important question whilst on the phone to a family/DNA place thingy.

"We found the man who received the same envelope." I received an envelope with a confidential stamp when I walked into the room with Mr. Gordon. "Would you like to speak to him?"
I nod my head even though they cant see me. "Yes! Of course!"

I take a deep breath...

... "Hello?"
I hear a voice.
"Hi..." I'm nervous. I'm shaking so badly I almost drop the phone.
"Thalia...?"
"Yes..." Still shaking, I stand up and start to walk around the room.
"So..." The man on the other side is nervous as well. "Have you opened the envelope yet?"
"No." I reply. "Have you?"
I can hear him shaking his head. "Nope." He sighs. "Shall we open them together?"
"Alright..."
"One" he breathes in.
"Two" I breathe in.
"Three." We say at the same time.

The door to the room I'm in with Mr. Gordon opens. Careless, I tear it open eagerly.

'The DNA test results show that your father is a man named Sean Hopkins.'

I breathe out. I put the phone on speaker and view the rest of the things inside of the envelope. A picture of my father is attached.
Shocked, I put my hand over my mouth. My light blue nail polish almost rubbed right off now. I took my mom's maiden name after the divorce.

I look at the phone. "Dad?"
"Yes."

I hear it. Through the phone and in the room. He's here.

I recognise him immediately and run to hug him. It's him. He apologises for everything and hugs me back. Tears of joy are running down my cheeks. "I love you" he whispers into my ear. "I love you, too." I tell him.

The family clinic that I am at now asks me a very serious question.

Mr Gordon sits down on a leather chair opposite me and my dad, sitting next to each other.
"So, Thalia. As you now know, this is your father. As you also know, no other family members can take you in." Dad is shooed out the room.

Mr. Gordon starts again. "We have searched his records, he is completely innocent with no criminal records. He had experience fostering children before, and raising them until they are able to live on their own. No, he has kindly said that if possible, he can take you in. Do you feel safe with him?"
I nod my head. "Yes, of course."
I keep nodding.
After a lot more of talking, the big question is asked...
"Would you like to move in with your father?"

I nod.

I still miss my mom. But I just feel like everything is okay now.
