Locket

"I'll see you later Gab," Paige said before heading to his classroom.

"Text you when I'm done," Gab said as she waves goodbye.

As Gab arrived in the classroom, she only saw the professor inside by herself.

"You're early today Ms. Zeppetelli," the professor said as she saw Gab entered the room.

"I met with my friend before coming here so I could come, early professor," Gab said as she sat at her chair.

"I hope you don't mind but I'm wondering where you get that necklace of yours," the professor said as she looks at Gab's necklace.

"My dad said my mom gave it to me when I was young," Gab replied as she played with the locket.

"The locket have the birthstone," she said.

"Yes, I have my mother's picture. This is the only memory I have since she died of childbirth," Gab said.

"I'm sorry to hear it. May I look at the picture of your mother if it's ok with you," she said.

"I don't mind," Gab said.

"Your mother Gabrielle is such a lovely lady," she said.

"Thank you, professor, to be honest, you're the only one who said that to me," Gab said.

"Your Dad didn't tell you?" the professor asked.

"He didn't mention her since he was not my biological father, he just adopted me from an orphanage in Italy," Gab said.

"The  person adopted you, what person is he?" she asked.

"He's kind and generous and he treats me as his own. His daughter takes care of me too as an actual sister," Gab replied.

"One question for you if you don't mind me asking, what will you do if your biological father wants you back?" she asked.

"I guess I will hear his reason for showing up," Gab replied.

"It must be hard on you," she said.

"It will be hard for me to think of leaving my family for a stranger," Gab said.

"I apologize for asking personal questions, I do not intend to make you sad," she said.

"It's ok professor, they say it's better to talk to a stranger than your friends," Gab said.

"Glad that you are ok with it, time for the class to start," she said.

"Let me go back to my seat," Gab said.

After class Gab and Paige head to the cafe' to meet with the staff there.

"Ok! What's the plan?" Paige asked.

"What do you mean?" Gab asked.

"Don't act you don't know Gabrielle," Bailey said before taking another bite of her biscotti.

"Are we not throwing a party for Uncle Angelo?" Kylie asked.

"Oh, no!" Gab said as she checks her phone calendar.

"Don't tell me you forget it," Stephen said.

"Well, it looks she forgets with her guilty face," Paige said.

"What am I to do? Phoebe didn't even mention it either," Gab said.

"You two are hopeless," Logan said as he passes each one's drink.

"Don't worry, I got a plan," Bailey said.

"Can you share it, my dear cousin?" Paige said.

"Logan, Paige is annoying," Bailey said.
