The Little Lies I Love (Completed)

Chapter 15: Mother

I walk down the hospital corridor. It's long, really long. No one is with me because I told them I wanted to go alone. I was beginning to regret my decision, but only slightly.

     I stopped at the room at the end of the hallway. I slowly brought my hand up to knock, pausing slightly before forcing myself to bring my fist on the door.

     I waited a few moments before hearing a soft, "Come in."

Opening the door slowly, I step into the room.

     To my left is a hospital bed. And in that bed is a women. A women who has the same blonde hair and blue eyes as me. The women who has the same curves as me. The same skin tone. The same everything. We look so much alike that if it weren't for the few wrinkles sprinkled across her face and body people would think we were twins.

     "Mom?" I mentally face palmed for asking such a rhetorical question.

     Tears started to brim my eyes as I looked at the women who I hadn't seen in 10 years.

     She turned her head to look at me, she gave me a sad smile as tears started pouring down both of our faces.

     "Oh my god! Chelsea!" She chokes out as her cries become more evident.

     "M-mom!"

     I walked over and let myself into her comforting arms. We sat like that- on the edge of her bed- hugging like our lives depended on it.

     After a bit she pulled away, caressing my cheek with her hand, studying every inch of my face.

     "You have grown into such a beautiful young women." Her voice cracks at the end, unable to keep her happy tears in any longer.

     I smiled at her.

                          ~~~~~
     After a long while of talking and catching up I decided it was time to get serious.

     "Mom," I began, "Why did you run away from the hospital?"

     She looks at me sadly, her eyes filling with so many emotions. Anger, sadness, guilt... regret.

     "Because. They were going to find you if I didn't. They were going to hurt you. And they still can." She whispers so quietly that I could barely hear her.
