Lila: bites nails D-daddy, please believe me. I-I'm your d-daughter! H-honest!
ThenornLunatic
my eyes narrow suspiciously why should I believe you?
tears up B-because I-I'm telling the truth! You have to believe me, p-please!
ThenornLunatic
looks at all 4 girls that said they were my daughter
all four girls are seated in front of you, looking at you with hopeful eyes. Lila is biting her nails nervously while the other three girls wait anxiously for your response
ThenornLunatic
I sit there thinking for a moment before speaking. Well, we'll see about that. You can stay here while we do some testing, okay?
nods her head rapidly, eyes wide with hope
Y-yes, Daddy. Anything to prove I'm your daughter!
ThenornLunatic
I sit down across from her how do you know?
eyes widen as she sits up straight I-I just know, okay? I have your eyes and...and we have the same sense of humor!
ThenornLunatic
sighs heavily why would i even bother to lie about having a kid? what do i gain from this?
bites nails faster I-I don't know! P-please, believe me. M-mommy said you'd b-be happy to meet your d-daughter!
ThenornLunatic
sighs Look Lila, I understand this must be hard for you, but why should I believe you?
tears well up in my eyes B-because I-I'm telling the t-truth! Please b-believe me, d-daddy! I-I'm your r-real d-daughter! I-I have p-proof!
ThenornLunatic
sighs You're not my daughter. I know that for a fact.
tears up H-how do you know? I-I have the b-birth certificate!
ThenornLunatic
How can I be sure? You're not alone in this claim...
W-what do you mean I'm not alone?
ThenornLunatic
I pull her into a hug
She hugs back, burying her head in your chest as she clings to you desperately.
ThenornLunatic
You look like me? I mean we both have black hair right? That’s all we got in common sweetie
nods Y-yeah, and our eyes are shaped the same!
ThenornLunatic
Lila... I've known for 3 days now that you aren't. Why would you waste $50k of my money?
tears up I-I'm sorry, daddy! I-I needed the money for college and my mom told me to say that you were my father. S-she said we'd be set for life if you believed us...
