One Skeleton in my Closet
I was told 2005 will be a very interesting year filled with new things that will come my way! I'm scared cuz there are a couple of skeletons in my closet, and I hope this one isn't coming to haunt me!
First, my mom came from Naples and I couldn't go to the Sammy Party, yeah yeah I hear it was Aaaamazing... but I'm going to invitational tonight!!!
So this morning my brother calls me while he's at work and starts telling me something, I can't hear him so I give it to my mom. She has a look of shock on her face and I can't wait for her to hang up. So basically, my grandfather, my mom's father, calls out of the blue, I have not seen him since before I moved to Naples many years ago. He wanted to find out how we were doing and to say hi. THIS is some weird stuff. I come from quite a dysfunctional family, it breaks my heart, but I cannot mend the pieces... but there's more...................................
Skeleton #1.... So, my mom's daughter, my half sister Theana, who I don't remember cuz I have not seen her since I was a year old or so, calls my brother and wants to meet me and see how we're doing. She is 30 with three girls and her husband is in Iraq, she's living in Miami for now. We talked for like a minute and said she is taking classes at FIU. My brother told her I was in a sorority and she was "like yeah it's been the fraternity rush week, I've seen them out there this week."
So I will call her tomorrow and my brother and I will meet up with her. He's met her before, but I, I can pass her by on the streets, and not have a clue it was her. It feels weird and I'm also intrigued because something has to be up... these two strangers wanting to know how we are now, after so many years, I hope I don't tell her to go fuck off. I've heard many sides of the story of how she came to live with her father instead of my mom. I believe my mom. I hope I can hear her side and understand why she never wanted to speak to my mom, and overall I hope I don't get mad and walk out. We'll see how it goes.
I'll keep you posted.
