My Girlfriend's Mom

"You want me to what?" Cody asked.

"I want you to find your dad. Maybe he's the one that took her." I said to him. He frowned up and shook his head.

"We don't know that for sure."

"She couldn't have been talking about my dad." I protested.

"Well she couldn't have been talking about mine either. I don't even know where mines is." He said to me. He stood near me as I changed Charli and watched patiently while I wrapped him up in a thick blanket.

"If he has a number, he has a home. Call him." He sighed and nodded taking out his phone while I packed up for us to leave. Charli was a clean bill of health and my dad was able to pay off my hospital bill upfront. Something he didn't have to do but he did.

"You two ready to go?" My mom asked at the room door. I nodded.

She had been the one who left to go home for my clothes. Only reason I knew that was because I was up at around that same time.

"Can we make a pit stop?" I asked her before looking at Cody on the phone. She looked his way and nodded.

"He knows I'm black right?" I asked Cody as my mom pulled up at the nearest trailer house. I felt uneasy. Mainly because I had never met the man and he could possibly be racist.

"Uh... Kinda."

"What you mean kinda?"

"He's only seen you in pictures." He said to me nervously.

"What pictures?" I asked him curiously.

"T-the ones we took at your baby shower. He wanted to know where I was that day and I couldn't lie. Usually I meet up with him at a diner because I didn't wanna now where he lived but I guess-"

"Cody. C'mere boy." Some white man said at the trailer door.

"I'll be right back." He said to me before kissing my forehead and getting out. I blushed red and watched in anticipation as he walked up the ramp and into the dark house.

"He looks familiar." My mom said to me.

"Not all white people lookalike mama." I laughed. She smiled back at me shaking her head.

"No. It's not that. He just looks familiar. I've seen a lot of faces and his stands out mainly because I used to score coke with him. I think that's it. Sad to say. I got off and he's been on and off of it. Haven't seen him in years." She sighed.

"Small world. My kids grandma and grandpa shot up coke together. Yay. What a story to tell." I said sarcastically.

From then on, we kept quiet until I saw Cody come back out with the dark haired man 10 minutes later. Cody walked towards the side of my car and I tensed up a bit when he opened it.

"He said someone gave him a letter too and that all he had to do was take Bella to Sabrina's house after she wrote a letter." He said to me leaning in the car. I frowned. Bella didn't have a letter with her and he knew that.

"But Bella-"

"My dad still has it." Cody answered as he unbuckled Charli's seat and pulled him out.

"You coming mom?" I asked as he helped me out of the car. She nodded and grabbed Bella's sleeping body and Charli's diaper bag.

"I have no choice do I?" She asked me. I shook my head and she chuckled.

The moment we stepped foot in the door, the white man greeted us with a crooked smile. He didn't at all look like he was on drugs nor did he look like Cole or Cody.
