This Is Us

Chapter Twenty-Three: FBI?

Isabella pov

"are you ready?" Nicole asks and I nod, I lift my hand and ring the doorbell, holding my breath. The door opens, the boy in the picture who is apparently my brother, he is dressed in a bottom-up shirt like there is a party or something. His eyes go from me then snap to Nicole, he looks her up and down then he turns to me "can I help you guys with something?" he asks in his deep voice "ah yeah is Sabrina Carter here?" I ask and he nods "um yeah I'll get her for you," he says and walks back to the house "oh my god he's so hot!" Nicole says beside me and I chuckle "hey how can I help you" I hear a ladies voice, my head turns and I see her standing there smiling at us, she is wearing a very beautiful red dress and her hair is wavy just like mine. "Hey" is the only thing I could say and gulp, "is everything okay?" she asks and I nod holding back my tears "I am Isabella," I say and stick my hand out for her to shake, her eyes go wide and she just stands there, does she know me. "Isabella?" she asks and I nod, I hear a bunch of talking from inside, looks like they are having a family or birthday party. I shake my dead and take a deep breath "sorry I did mean to bother, I'll just come back a different day" I say and start walking down the porch with Nicole by my side "Isabella wait" she says and closes the door behind her, coming down to us "are you here for anything important, looking for people?" she asks, hope was showing in her eyes, I go in the car and give her the folders, she takes them from me and frowns "what are these?" she asks and I sight "my stepmom gave me these, I was given away when I was a kid" I say and her eyes go wide and her head snaps up at me "oh my god" she says her hands on her mouth "yo-your my daughter Isabella" she says and I slowly nod letting the tears fall.

She comes near me and immediately hugs me "I am so sorry, I am so sorry" she keeps saying and hugging me tight "it is okay" I say and she pulls away and shakes her head " I should have never given you away" she says and looks at me up and down and smiles "you are so beautiful" she says and hugs me "she looks just like you" Nicole saying and I laugh, my mom nodding her head. "I am gonna go call my husband" she says and quickly goes in "look I know this is all happy and everything but we will need to take some tests to see if y 'all are actually related" Nicole says and I nod "I know, it is weird that she looks just like me" I say my voice coming like a whisper, Nicole's eyes snap on the house and it looks like she is looking at someone, I turn my head and see she is looking at my brother who is talking to a girl "stop staring!" I hit her arm and she groaned "he is so hot" she says and I shake my head "sweetie this Is Isabella" Sabrina says coming down with my dad, he smiles at me "hey Isabella I am Michael" he says sticking his hand out "Michael this is the Isabella, our daughter Isabella, the one we were looking for all these years" Sabrina says and my heart drops "you guys were looking for me?" I ask and she nods "of course the family is not complete without you" she says and I smile and turn to Michael who's eyes are wide open "oh my god" he says and comes closer to me and hugs me "hey" I say giggling while tears still coming down and he is also laughing and crying.

"come inside what do you say?" mom asks hugging me sideways "oh no I don't want to bother maybe another day" I say shaking my head and she gasp "you are not a bother Isabella you are part of the family" she says and I smile "maybe another day" I say and she sights and hugs me "I am sorry again" she says and I shake my head "it Is okay, I am here now" I say and she smiles and nods. After hugging her and Michael and getting their phone numbers, Nicole and I get in the car and start making our way to the apartment "that was such a beautiful moment" Nicole says and I smile and nod my head "I loved it, I have never been this happy" I say and she smiles and turns the radio on.

"so your saying first time was in a car?" I ask Nicole and burst out laughing, After we got home, Nicole and I order bunch of food and now we are sitting drinking wine and eating "okay hey I was drunk" she says taking a sip from her drink, and I chuckle shaking my head and take a sip from my wine. "everything was just perfect before my parents job came in the way" she says and I sight "it is okay, your safe now, you are living with a well kind of FBI" I say and she chuckles " I am gonna head to bed it is like 2 am" she says and I nod my head and help her clean up. I go in my room and sit in my bed, taking out the folders because I wanna know more about them, I start reading and come to find out my mom and dad are both FBI's which make me gasp, my brother has his own company and my sister also helps with the company.

My family life is perfect.
