Short Story "My Biological Parents"

             
Growing up Briana seemed to have the perfect life. She had a mother named Kim, a father named Will, a brother named Michael and a sister named Lea. The family lived in Hollywood in a 10 bedroom mansion. Their mansion had 2 pools, a tennis court, and basketball courts; the family took vacations and engaged in wonderful family activities every week. Seems like Briana appeared to have the perfect life right? Even though Briana appeared that she had the perfect life, everyday she dealt with the fact that she knew she was adopted. Initially Briana's parent's told her at the age of 12, which really didn't bother her until the age of 15.
            One day while going through some pictures, Briana came across one of her baby pictures. In this picture with Briana were a man and a woman. This was odd to Briana because she had never laid eyes on this picture before. "Are these my real parents"? Briana said to herself as she sat on the edge of her bed. Days began to pass and all Briana could think about was the fact that she wanted to meet the people that brought her into the world.
            Breakfast! Said Kim. Each of the children walked downstairs to the table to see what their mother prepared. "I made pancakes, eggs, bacon and toast for everyone", said Kim. "Oh mommy, this is going to be great said Lea. As everyone began to enjoy breakfast, Will and Kim noticed Briana wasn't eating her food. "Baby what's wrong"? Said Will, Briana looked at her parents but said not a word. "Umm Michael, and Lea, you all can finish your food upstairs", said Will. Once

Lea and Michael and Lea life the table, Will asked Briana once again what was wrong. Briana sighed, “Mom, Dad I love you both so much and I am so happy you guys are my parents, I just wonder about my real parents sometimes". Aw honey, said Kim. "Is that was has been bothering you"? You know you can come to us about anything sweetie". Yes mom, I didn't want you and dad to feel like I didn't love you guys as much". “Honey we will always know you love us, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you wondering about your biological, said Will.”Do you want to meet your biological baby girl"? Said Will. To be honest dad, mom I do". If this is what you really want to do honey then your father and I will handle everything" said Kim.
            Less than a week later Will and Kim came into Briana's room to talk to her. Knock knock knock “Come in" said Briana. "Honey we contacted with the adoption agency, and they were able to get into contact with your biological parents."We all will be having lunch exactly one month from now. Once Briana heard those words she felt nothing but mixed emotions. “I can’t believe I am going to meet my real parents a month from now" Briana said to herself. “Oh no, what if they don't like me"? “What if they don't show up"? Before Briana knew it, it was a day before she would meet her biological parents for the first time. "Mom Dad I’m scared" said Briana. "Honey don't be scared, everything will be fine said her parents.
            The day was finally here and Briana was on her way to the restaurant to meet her real parents. As Briana anxiously awaited with Kim and Will she tried to calm her mixed emotions. About 5 minutes later, Briana looked up to see a man and a woman walking up to her table. "Briana"? The woman said Hello in Victoria. "Nice to meet you", "Hello Briana I'm Robert, nice to meet you". As everyone greeted each other Briana thought to herself "I can't believe this is happening".
            As lunch went on Briana found out a lot of things about her real parents. She always thought that her parents didn't want her because they didn't care for her, but what she soon realized that they were too young to support her when she was born and gave her up because they wanted her to have a better life. That day soon changed Briana's life forever because she developed a mutual relationship with her biological parents. She soon realized that meeting Victoria and Robert wasn't so scary after all, but she also knew that no one will ever take the place of Kim and Will.
