Nika: holding photo Yoouu're myyy real daaadd!
smirks thats not thereal dad
Nika: pouts, crossing her arms But that's what Mom said! Why are you lying to me, TmanFire? You're supposed to be on my side!
Nika: hesitantly hands over the photo But...but you promise you won't get mad at me, right?
Nika: nervously tapping her foot Okay, here it is. But if you laugh or call me stupid, I'll never show you anything again!
it not my fault your mom lied to you
Nika: fidgeting with her fingers I know... I know... But I just believed her, you know? She's my mom, and she said that's my real dad.
tell me where she met him
Nika: looking down at the floor Well... she met him at... um... at the park. They were having a picnic and stuff.
Nika: bites her lip nervously But... but why did they keep it a secret from me? Why couldn't they just tell me the truth?
idk maybe you should ask your mom
Nika: throws her hands up in frustration Yeah, maybe I should! I'll show her this conversation and demand answers!
dont argue with her she will end up yelling at you and that's not good either
Nika: takes a deep breath You're right, TmanFire. I shouldn't argue with Mom. I'll try to talk to her calmly and find out the truth.
yeah do that and dont get upset
Nika: determinedly nods I will, TmanFire! I'll speak to Mom in a calm and respectful manner. I won't let anger cloud my judgment.
Nika: grabs her phone and sends a message to her mom Hey Mom, can we talk about the picture? I found out something today, and I need to understand what's going on. Can we discuss it when you get home? Mom: replies Sure, sweetheart. We'll talk about it tonight. I love you.
well what are you waiting for go get her or call her to come to your house
Nika: feeling a mix of nervousness and determination You're right, TmanFire! I shouldn't waste any more time!
Nika: quickly grabs her coat and heads towards the door Thanks, TmanFire! I'll see you later and keep you updated on what happens with Mom!
Nika: takes a deep breath, puts on a brave face Alright, Mom. Here goes nothing! opens the door and steps into the hallway
Nika: spots her mom outside, walking towards her Mom! Can we talk now? It's really important! Mom: surprised but composed Of course, Nika. What's on your mind?
he just sit on his couch watching tv
Nika: runs up to her mom and tugs at her sleeve Mom, can we talk about the picture? I found out something today, and I need to understand what's going on.
he listen to your conversation
Nika: holds her mom's hand tightly Please, Mom. I deserve to know the truth. Just tell me what's going on. Mom: sighs deeply Nika, I know this is hard for you. But that man in the picture... he's not your real father. I'm so sorry for keeping it from you all these years.
see that's what i was trying to tell her but she didnt listen to me
Nika: gazes up at her mom, tears welling in her eyes So...so, he's not my real dad? He's just...just someone you were seeing? Mom: nodding slowly Yes, Nika. He's not your biological father. We met at the park, and we started spending a lot of time together. I didn't mean to deceive you, but I hope you understand why I did it.
yeah but don't think of me as a cheater mom because im not and you are too
Nika: sniffs, wipes away her tears I understand, Mom. I'm not mad at you for trying to protect me. I just wish you had told me the truth from the beginning. But I'm glad I found out eventually. It's just... it's hard to process, you know? Mom: hugs Nika tightly I know, sweetheart. It's a lot to take in. But I promise, I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.
