Pearl Peluso's POV.
I was shocked at what granny was showing me!! I saw these two today! And granny was here telling me that they are my parents?? Granny! I said . Are you sure these two are my biological parents?? Granny don't you understand! I..I am s-p-e-e-c-h-l-e-s-s let me have a look at those pictures again, I said.
......
They are the ones! I cried!
But Granny I thought you said they were separated a long while ago! I felt betrayed..
I don't know either! My son and your mum came here and dropped you here.. I don't understand! Granny said .
Ok Granny,i said. I really believe you but ..
Granny said.; I will explain the whole story to you! In the evening.
Re.. really! Thank you Granny I can't wait! I said.
................................
Granny,Granny where are you it's 8:00pm already;I said.
What was he doing,i thought! Was he crying or afraid to tell me the whole story! And Granny came to the Parlour and sat like a repentant criminal on the sofa! I looked at him suspiciously and after a looong while I decided to break the silence; Granny? Are we not seated here for a reason? I frowned. Don't act dumb! I know you can hear me; I thought..
Hmm,ok ok I need to say it,Granny murmured, Granny started: a long while ago, before you were born, I figured that was 15 years ago cause Granny told me! Your father; my son said he had found a wife! I didn't say you should start from the scratch, just go straight to the point! I thought.. Granny looked at me and said are you listening Pearl? I murmured. Yes please. ok. Granny said! His wife to be was named Katie!
............................
After two hours; we were done! And at that time it was 10:00pm!! Thank you Granny! I said..when he went to bed I still sat on the plastic chair thinking of everything he said..
I started thinking.. so that's not my mum! It was dad's first wife that was my biological mum! So that means my biological mum is no where to be found!! And then I thought about what Granny said;your father is your father but your mum is no where to be found!!because your biological mum got pregnant for your father and when she gave birth to you she hated you immediately!! At times she felt like killing you but your father ran and took you away then he was tired and brought you to me when you were 3!!
Pearl!! Someone interrupted my thoughts, it was my friend Katie!! What was she doing here by this time?? And then I suddenly remembered what Granny said!! Katie was my biological mum!!!!! Katie what are you doing here at this time?? I said. oh, have you forgotten about the speech? At that point I realized I didn't prepare for the speech I had to say tomorrow morning with my friends!!!! But I decided to act like I knew; because I knew Katie she would make sure you say what is bothering you! Even though she had no solution to it!!oh. Sure. I scratched my head..off course you didn't know, Katie said!
I was afraid that she was going to force me to say it.. but she surprised me!!She said: we can as well prepare tonight! Err ,o-k-a-y..
.........
Katie! Don't just stare!! Did I do well I said. Off course you did well, but you were nervous!! You need to keep calm!! And try not to look at my face!!Katie said. Ugh, I'll just keep trying..
..................
Granny's POV..
I was confused,what was she saying?? She saw my son?? And Tommy didn't tell me he was back in town!!
I just knew she was going to ask me to tell her the whole story!! So I had to tell her.. I noticed her face, it was taut and pale!! I should have told her a long while ago but I was only showing pictures.. I hope she understands!! I was still hearing her voice in the sitting room!!was she crying?? At a point I thought it was armed robbers!! But they would've come inside to check if anyone else was inside so I concluded it would either be Katie or Kate!! Cause she told me earlier that the twins may come but it seems it was only one of them that came!! May be I should go check them; I thought. Nah,that's a bad idea,what for? I thought.. or maybe I should get a glass of water! That way I would see them without them knowing I wanted to spy on them,i thought. As I went there I saw they were asleep!! I woke them up and asked if they had read there Bibles Katie said she and Pearl read Pearl's Bible before they slept! Then I told them to turn off the light of the sitting room and go to their various bedrooms!! {Katie&Kate were more like our family; besides my house is a 5 bedroom apartment}
............. ...... ...
Katie's POV
What was Pearl thinking of? And why did she decide to hide it from me? I thought! I decided not to ask her to tell me cause from her face I could note she wasn't in the mood for talking and she could get angry anytime soon!! So I decided to change the topic to the speech!! Even though I knew that Pearl had a Photo magnetic Brain..She had always been a great listener I and my twin knew her since Elementary school..she looked to us like a novice.. she always kept to herself,she looked so odd.. when we got to know her she was not bad at all and from then she told us 96% of her life.. but now was different, have she done something wrong but couldn't say? Was she hurt? Well I don't know? When the time is right she'll tell us.. she said her speech pretty well she was so nervous.. but we had to sleep!! It was 3:00am!! So we slept on the sofa,it was so soft! I had a beautiful dream about Pearl having a makeover!! She was so Pretty and as she made her speech.... Someone woke us up Pearl's GRANNY!! He asked if we read our Bibles,which we said we read then he asked us to turn off the light and go to our various bedrooms..then while I was there in the bedroom I saw something.. a black thing.. and I stood up at once turned on the light and I saw a black nylon and slept back[I didn't want to cause a scene!! So I slept back] and again I saw the black thing this time I turned on the light and was determined to check what it was.. and I saw this two big things; at this point I couldn't handle it I screamed so loud; Pearl came and saw it! It was a roach! And a Scorpion!! I had Phobia for these two I ran out of the bedroom and left Pearl there at once Pearl killed it.. buhh I couldn't sleep there alone so I slept beside Pearl..I was still afraid but Pearl was with me so.. I wished my Twin was here Kate she would hug me so tight until I sleep but here Pearl kept laughing at me Until Finally I slept in shame..Authors note:
