"I don't want to do this now. Why can't I just meet him another time?" Avia asked Alec through the phone.

"You can do this. This is your chance of getting answers from your mother and finally know the truth." Alec spoke gently to the nervous Brunette.

"I wish you were here next to me." Avia whispered as she looked around the park for Alec.

"I know, but it's all about the plan. Once your dad arrives, Nick and I will walk over and sit with you guys." Alec said smiling as he met her eyes. He's sat on one of the swings of the playground with Nick on the other swing. "Just shoot a text and we'll be over there in seconds."

"Okay Flash, I better go. She devil is almost here." Avia spoke into the phone. She said her goodbyes and hung up.

"See, I told you that men are disgusting..."

"You lied." Avia blurted out. "When I was unpacking my books. This letter fell out of one of my childhood books." Avia put the letter on the table for her mother to read.

"It's a letter from our dad, I got one too." Aria spoke up from next to her twin. "Tell us... the truth. Why did you lie to our dad about putting us up for adoption?" Aria asked their mother.

The shocked look on their mother's face says it all. She had no idea that her ex had left notes for the girls, she also didn't expect him to tell them what seems like a lie. But, in reality it the truth.

"Did you use dad to have daughters?" Avia asked her mother.

"Okay, fine. Yes, I did use Brian to have girls. When I gave birth to Luca, I wasn't expecting to have a boy. Do I love Luca? Not one bit. Do I love you girls? Yes and no..."

"There is no 'yes or no' here. If you loved us, you won't have kept us away from dad. You wouldn't have told us all these lies of men being disgusting. Yes, there are guys out there that are pigs and deserve to get locked away." Avia spoke up, disgusted at the fact that her mother doesn't love her first born.

"But there are guys out there that love to hold and cuddle and just want to have a family. We're 19-years-old, but that's beside the point. The fact is that you kept our father from being in our lives. We wanted our father to be a part of our lives, when wanted to get that secure feeling that a daughter has with their father. We never got that, instead we got raised by a woman that lied to us for 19-years-olf of our lives." Aria ranted.

The three Foster females sat there in silence. Avia was so tempted to text Alec and tell him to come over, but she held back until her dad arrives. Meredith sat there not knowing what to say about the letter that Brian had managed to get to the girls.

"Why did you do that to dad?" Avia asked as she left tears fill her eyes, she looked up to look her mother in the eyes. "Why did you tell dad that you were putting us up for adoption and then not do so?"

"I did it because he didn't want you girls. I also didn't think I was able to raise you girls alone but I wasn't going to give up." Meredith told her 'daughters' as she felt the tears roll from her eyes down her blush covered cheeks.

"That's a lie and you know it." Aria scoffed as she rolled her eyes at her mother acting abilities. "You honestly think we're going to believe that dad didn't want us. He wrote a letter saying that he wanted to be in our lives and you took that away from him. He could have had his first daughters in his life, whether that's only visiting every so often. We could've had that father we always wished for, but you took that chance away from us." Aria snapped with tears of anger roll down her eyes. "He's our father, he's our flesh and blood. We have the rights to see him if we wanted to, you shouldn't have made that decision for us." Aria added after a short pause.
