For long have been pondering on what my reaction would be on hearing the news that my parents and siblings I have lived with all the days of my life are not my biological family. Will I tear up or get mad at them for hiding the truth from me? or wait! maybe I will run away from home in search of my actual parent 🤔🤷 I really don't know how best to handle such news but then I definitely need to tell you guys what my reaction would be so come with me on this journey of discovery.
Left for my foster parent who I thought were my biological parent, I would never have known if I was an adopted child because they never wished to tell me or probably they were waiting for the day am married before breaking the news to me. Things didn't work out the way they planned as my dad's elder sister came visiting and trust aunt Titi to be a noise maker and also loose with her words. I will say she speaks before thinking instead of the other way round but nonetheless she is such a sweet soul.😍
On this very day, my siblings and I went out to get groceries from the store but unfortunately I left my card at home neither did I went with my phone to make a transfer so I asked them to go while I return home to go get my card. On reaching the door step I over heard aunt Titi telling dad when he will break the news to me. Why are they mentioning my name and what news are they hiding from me I said to myself. Because I was curious I decided to eavesdrop on their conversation and in less than a minute I heard daddy saying I can't tell her she was adopted and even if i would not now, not now at all. I love my child so much and don't want to cause her pains at this crucial stage of her life.
The news did tore me apart but daddy's words broke me even to think he loves me this much. 😰😭 I gently opened the door and both daddy, aunt Titi were stunned upon seeing me. They were literally shaking because non of them knew what my actions would be. I won't lie I was deeply hurt and it was as though my whole world just crumbled before my very own eyes even after knowing how dad feels about me. I love my family a lot and don't want to start all over again with strangers so I cleaned my tears huged dad and told him I love him unconditionally.
Thank you my child, thank you my child my dad said in tears. 😭 With greater love I handled the situation and it greatly helped me and the whole family that I never for once felt like an outsider. Although I want to still know who my biological parents were to ask them a million and one questions but from the story dad later told me he said nobody knows their whereabout including the orphanage home I was adopted so I just let everything slide and embraced the lovely family I have.
