"Who are your parents?" Ms. Johnson said.
Why would she ask that? Maybe because we have the same last name.
What if it's just a coincidence?
"Uhm. My mother's name is Lilybeth Johnson." I said.
She nodded.
"And, as for my father. I... Didn't had a chance to meet him..." I said.
"Is your mother present?" She said.
"Unfortunately, She died a couple of years ago." I said.
"I know this is hard to take in. But-"
She paused for a while.
"Lilybeth Johnson is my sister." She said.
I widened my eyes after her statement.
"S-so, that means..." I said, stuttering.
"Yes, Aiden. I'm your aunt." She said, smiling a bit.
"B-but, how c-come you didn't l-look for me?" I said.
"I had been searching for you for a couple of years now. Ever since Lily died. Though before she past, you two moved to another address." She said, trying to explain everything.
I looked down. Trying to avoid contact. "Aiden." She said, kneeling down to my level to face me.
"I'm so sorry if it took so long. If there's anything that I can do to make it up to you. I'll do it." She said, with a caring look.
I nodded.
"Do you need any financial help? Do you have a house to live in? Do you eat regularly?" She said.
"I'm fine Ma'am." I said, smiling.
"You know what? I'll visit you later after school. Just give me a copy of your address and I'll be there. And also, when we're not in school. You can call me Auntie J. okay?" She said.
"Thanks... Auntie J." I said, smiling.
She smiled back and led me inside of the room.
Morning class ended pretty fast and I got a project already. It was now lunch time.
I guess I'll do this project at lunch.
I was about to get out of the room when a bunch of guys blocked me.
Oh no. It's those guys in Jack's group.
"Hey. Boss wants to talk to ya." One of the guys said.
I tried to ignore them, but they're too strong for me.
So I just did what they want me to do.
I got outside where Jack was and the group of boys left us alone.
"Hey."
