Secret: Forbidden

Revelation 5.

I felt relieved, really. Seeing this man who looks exactly like me.

"Do you have proof?"

"Well, isn't my face enough proof that we are twins?"

"Well of course. It's undeniable that we do have a resemblance."

"And of course, I do have proof."

He suddenly took a document out of his coat. Yes he was wearing a coat. He looked formal and intimidating. Like he owns the world.

I scanned through the documents and saw a DNA test and birth certificates.

These months have been the most horrifying and stressful months of my life. But having to read this and see this man in front of me, made me feel relaxed.. Relieved of the stress I was feeling. I wanted to just hug this man who calls himself my twin brother and thank him.

But then.. What about my inheritance? What's going to happen if I told them I already knew everything.. about my real identity. I suddenly thought why did this have to happen. I suddenly became confused. On what I should feel. On what I should do. Dad.. Mom.. Why did they hide these facts to me?

"Okay.. Let me clear my head for a bit.."

I stood up. And there showed my little baby bump. I faced him.. And held my forehead..

"So.. What's your purpose? Why now? Why not earlier? Why?"

He looked at my baby bump and looked at me. Straight in the eyes.

"It wasn't time yet. Well, Dad wants to see you."

Dad.. My.. Biological dad. Daddy's face.. I meant the one I grew up with.. flashed through my mind. I couldn't think of anyone else I'd call dad. I loved him so much. Right now, I felt like my heart was being shred to pieces.

"Why does he want to see me?"

"He's dying.. I don't know the details. Because he wanted to say it to you directly.."

"Dying.. "

"Yes.. He's dying. Our dad."

"I am quite confused on what to do or say right now, honestly."

"Well, you have to get a grip and think straight. Because we don't have much time anymore."

"I really don't know what to do. I am going through things at the moment and it's already very stressful. And you.. This.. Is too much for me to take in."

"Jade.. I was always there. I was always around. You just never noticed me. I watched over--"

The door suddenly opened... "Oh my god Jade I was trying to call you to tell you I bought baby clothes and things!"

My mom.. Great timing. Really. great. timing.

She realized I was with someone.. "Sorry, am I interrupting some..thing..important Jade.."

I guess she noticed by now. She noticed our resemblance. We were like tito Kel and Daddy.. We resembled each other so much.

"W-who are you.." Mommy was trying to think.. Her eyes were now starting to get teary..

"I guess, I'm your son."

He's mean. He should've said it in a nice way.

"How.. I though you died.. Jeremy.. Did he lie? He lied!"

I was starting to cry as well. I can see how heartbroken my mom was.

"I didn't.. Grandpa hid the fact I was alive. Grandpa threatened to kill both you and Jade for his selfishness. Dad had no other choice."

"What.. I can't believe it. How can he be so evil.. I have known for a fact that he didn't want me as his daughter-in-law. And he didn't want a granddaughter. But this is too much!"

"Dad has been watching over the both of you since I was a child. When he got sick I took over the watching.."

To sum it up.. My biological grandfather wanted me dead. Or threatened to kill us both.

How should I take this all in?
