Hailey's Pov.

 It's the next morning and school got canceled until further notice.

 As my dad and I continue planning my mothers funereal I am still debating on how I should tell him that I was the uh one who killed her.

 The truth is going to come out eventually to everyone, when it hits the news, and it be better he hears it from me and not from the news, read it in the paper, or have a random person walk up to him and tell him that his daughter who's not really his daughter killed his wife, her own mother.

 I'm gonna be label as the girl who murdered her mother for the rest of my life.

 And I don't think I'm ready for it, so for the rest of the night I'm going to enjoy being 'normal' I don't really know how normal a not so undercover F.B.I agent who kissed the guy she was supposed to be protecting from her own mother and uncle who really turned out to be her real father and also who's mother broke out of jail, came to my school, broke into my classroom, threatened to shoot a kid for sneezing and then fought me, and I killed her in the end.

 Yup, my  life is completely normal.

 "Hailey? Hailey!? HAILEY!" I hear my name being shouted and I snap out of my tanz.

 "Hmm? Wha-?" And halfway of finishing my  sentence I glance over and see my father sitting there with a pen in his hand, "Sorry." I say quietly and look at the ground.

 "Hailey honey you okay?" He ask's me and I don't say anything, I feel the couch dip down more next to me and I feel my father wrap his arms around me pulling me into a hug his chin resting on the top of my head. "Look kiddo, I know these past few days, heck weeks, have been crazy for you, getting your first mission and all, and all of the crazy stuff that happened with your mother." And he pauses for a few moments and I feel his arms wrap tighter around my body, "Your mother, she was. Well, she wasn't quite right in the head. We don't know the whole story, and we never will now that your mother is uh-" And my father stops talking again.

 Without even realizing it I feel tears streaming down my face from what my father was saying.

 "It's okay, you can say it." I assure him.

 "Dead." And the ringing sounds in my ears return once again.

 "But no matter what." My father continues the ringing noise still present in my ears but just soft enough to where I can hear what he is saying. "I loved your mother. Very much in fact. If I had known what she was planning I would have never gave you the mission but she insisted that you take the job, she really believed in you." He exhales a breath he was holding in unwraps his arms from me and looks me in the eyes. "Now, I don't know if your mother really believed in you, or if was just apart of her plan or whatever, I don't even know if she loved me, for all I know she could of just seen me as a puppet and nothing more. But nonetheless, she gave me you, and I love you very much Hailey, no matter what. I'm always going to be here for you and I'm always going to be your father. By blood or not, I'm your father Hailey and I'm so very proud of you during all of this, you handled yourself so well. I love you Hailey."

 By the time his speech was over I was balling. There's no way I can tell my father, is there any way I can go back in time and stop myself from killing her? Is there?! I gotta know!

 I feel like I'm in a horrible dream and I'm gonna wake up any minute now.

 Yup.

 Any minute now.

 I'm going to keep telling myself that to get through this.

 I look at my father  who has a shed a few tears of his own and I wrap my arms around his neck and rest my chin on his shoulder for a few seconds before burying my face into his neck and shoulder and just cry enjoying these last few amazing loving moment with my father before he doesn't want anything to with me anymore once he finds out the truth.
