Chapter Hundred and forty three

 Sunny tried to concentrate so hard doing lesson but the gossips and questions coming from het classmate abd other students was too much to bear others went as far as begging for her number since they've known who her real mum was.

A multi million who was everyone favorite and role model, when it becomes so unbearable she made her way out of the class and made her wall down the sport hall. 

It was empty and this way, she can have peace of mind. She didn't think her day would get any better so it was better to stay in here. 

Every moment that her classmate leans forward to ask her questions on why she denied a woman everyone would give anything to have as their mother, she just feel like screaming out or giving the a punch on the face.

And now everyone was talking about this about something she never wish to speak about, what kind of woman was she? Why would she decide to ruin her life by ever showing her face.

Who did she think she is? That people talk about her and loves her do much doesn't give her the right time because near her, she hated her so much.

How dare her! How dare her ruin her life this way, now everyone thinks she was insane for denying her as her mum not knowing what the woman has done to her.

She had left her for years, she never cared for her not even a message from her and now she's back to take a place she has never worked for! She felt like screaming as she buried her face in get hand and didn't stop the tears when it slide down from her eyes.

She wanted to scream and tell the world that the only person that deserves to be called and recognized as her mum is the only one who has been there for her all through her life journey.

"Sunny, she heard her name and stiff in silence, she doesn't want anybody to see her this way and she doesn't have the strength to wipe away her tears, she just sat with her head buried in her hand 

"You shouldn't be here alone, you should have called me to join you" Sunny turned and saw Jade sitting beside her before hiding her face again away from her. "How did you know that I was here? She asked and tried to gain control over herself.

"I searched and since I know who Sunny is, I figured out exactly where you'll be". They both sat in silence for a while before Sunny breaks the silent.

"I'm really sorry for missing your performance, I just wish.... "It okay you don't have to apologize, I now know you didn't mean to run off". She sighed and looked up at the basket ball court looking for something to distract herself from the pain she was feeling.

"I'm sorry that you found out like this, as a friend we shouldn't hide secrets from one another". "I'm not mad at you, you have your reasons, I'm not complaining....all I wanted was for you to be happy and when I saw her angry and hurt you've been today, I had really wanted to take Josh down....

Sunny chuckled a bit watching the determine look on het face. "You're not going into ask me why I denied her as my mum? Sunny asked watching her frienwd. I'm not going to force you to

 tell me something and I also know that you won't do it without a reason so it okay" 

Sunny smiled as she listened to her friend, she was being reasonable now and she loves it but she still missed her nagging though. "Tara is the one who deserves to be called my mother, she has been there for me since I was seven my real mum left after promising a lot of things to me but I waited all this lonely years for her but....

She never called ones or even text but Tara she had been a real mum to me so why then would I ever call a woman who abandon me mother" Tears slide down from her eyes and she wiped it away. 

"I hate her so much, why did she even showed her face, what did she think would happen the only thing she had ever caused me is harm...

Sunny weep not being able to control herself, the pain was too much to bear and now everyone was condemning her. It was unfair since they don't know the real truth.

I drove to Emily's house, it feels like ages, everything has changed, the house, everything looks beautiful as she walked up to her front door.

She missed her so well and also Emily has told her when she was pregnant with a child and the day she put to bed, she had also left her know. It had been so long and it scares her knowing how much she missed them.

She tapped on the door and waited it to be answered, the door pulled opened and Emily stood there with an Apron tied around her neck. Her eyes widen in surprise as she threw her hand around me. "Becca, "Emily, I whispered, this was comforting more than comforting. 

This feels like home. "I missed you" I said first and fought the tears not to slide down. "I missed you sister, I miss you" we stayed like this for some fun before withdrawing. 

I made my way inside and focus my gaze at the pictures on the wall. "She's beautiful, just like you" I said and got Emily attention which turned to me with tears in her eyes. "I told her so much of her aunt and she'll be really happy that you're here today". 

"Where are the children? I asked the turning to the family picture that was hung on the other side the wall. "They went out with their father, I'm telling you I'm really happy that they're out now because they both are a handful" she laughed now.

I smiled and remembered when Sunny was still little "Why didn't you tell me? I stopped but didn't take my eyes off the pictures, why didn't you tell me that my daughter resents me". 

"Becca, Emily called gently, of course she knows but she choose to hide it from me why?  "Why? I asked when I turned to her, why would you hide such thing from me or do you also think I'm a bad mother?

"No, Becca, Never, you're not a bad mother" she walked up to me and held my hand. 

"You're the strongest mum ever who fought despite the storm, you can never be a bad mother and the only reason I didn't tell you is because I don't want to hurt you, I just don't want you hurt again.

I looked at the pain in her eyes and know she meant every word she said, it feels like I'm just a stranger living in my body, she made coffee and we sat at by the fireplace enjoying the caffeine.

"I met with Sunny" Emily said after a long silence. "She had grown so big through the years, I can't tell you how my heart feels when I saw her, just like you...her smile and later I tried to talk with her but it didn't go down the way I would expect"

Emily looked up at my face. "She doesn't want to hear anything about you and asked me to leave, it hurts me so much because she doesn't know how much you had sacrificed for her. And then Tara was the one behind all this, I saw it in her smile she thinks she has won over you....again but you have to show them that this time you'll win not them"

"After all these years, I got the chance to meet my daughter and .... my mind played back at the school hall when she denied my daughter, she had claim aloud that the only person she recognized as her mother was Tara and not me.

Those words has seem like a knife has been shoved down my heart, I don't want any more of this pain again. It was driving my crazy, I threw my head back and shut my eyes and counted to ten before I opened my eyes and saw Emily watching, waiting for me.

I smiled sadly, I think I could use a smoke". "I ...don't have any? She gave ame a wild glare, I laughed despite how fake it sound. "Can I? She watched me for a while before nodding her head. "Sure you can" she smiled and run her hand through her hair, I reached out for my purse and took out a smoke.

"This has made me feel better through the years" I light it up and after inhaling for a few times, I turned to Emily enough had Kept his gaze on me throughout. 

"You seem different from the woman that had left her years ago". She saud without taking his eyes away from me. "Why did you say that, is it because of this? I raised my smoke up and she shook her head. 

"Not that Becca, the woman who left here seems so vulnerable and would break down completely if she ever got even the slightest hint that her daughter doesn't want anything to do with her but you...seem more deadly" 

I chuckled knowing that if anybody in the world understands my pain and how I feel, it was my sister. "Nothing in the world could compare the type of heartbroken I felt when my daughter denied me and declared Tara as her real mum... It hurts" 

I shut my eyes and calm my nerves before opening back again, I was trying my best to control myself, the pain and anger.

After all these years, My hopes shattered within a day, I just watched without knowing what best to say or do and I watched my enemy laugh at me again...thinking they have won this.

They have made my daughter turn away from me but....I'm not going to quit that easily, I was going to make her understand the truth. I was going to let her see how much I love and missed her, nothing would make me quit on my daughter.

"Whatever it is, I'll never quit on my daughter, I'm going to try to make her understand that she was the one who gave me strength and hope to work harder through the years because anything I remembered that one day that I would come be coming back to her.

It makes me what you work more harder, I wanted her to have a good life. I wanted her to see a strong mother when I come for her not the one that filled with so much sorrow and sadness.

I wouldn't want her to see that type of mother, I took my time to heal to be myself through the years attend and keep in with my medical routine. 

All that was just for her, it was because the hope that I was going to come back to my daughter one day". I looked up at Emily. "I'm going to get my daughter back, she was my daughter, she's always mine, I'll always love her despite anything that happens.

I'm not going to break down and give my enemies the satisfaction they want in seeing me break down again"  "And just know that I'm always going to be here here when you need me, Sunny deserves to know what an amazing mum you are". 

I smiled and gulped down my coffee then heard the door bell. "The children" Emily said with so much joy despite knowing that it was no rest till they went to bed later at night.

I smiled and watched her walk to open the door and after a few seconds, I heard noises from the children and running footsteps.  

"Aunt! Both of then called cheerfully when they entered the room, I opened my arms for them to run into. "Oh, my babies has grown really big". I hugged them tightly in my arms. 

"I missed you so much and mum has told me so much about you and now.... tell us what you got for us" I watched them and smiled. "Well... I got a huge surprise for you guys....
