Mom, Dad

Mom, Dad,

I know that I’m a little late. Ok, I’m a lot late. But let me tell you what happened.

It all started when I arrived at school today. There was this new student in my first period class today. Never saw him before. He sat right in front of me, turned around and said, “Hello Katie.” Of course, I was shocked. I had no idea who he was.

“Excuse me! Do we know each other?”, I asked him.

“Yes! I’m”

At that point the bell rang, the teacher walked in, told everyone to be quiet, and started class. When class was over, he was out the door before I could even try to continue the conversation.

In second period, I sat down and guess who was sitting behind me. I didn’t see him at first. It was him that walked up to me.

“Wow, Katie’”, he said. “We are in 2 classes together. That’s great.”

“That is something else. Now who are you?”

“I can’t believe that you don’t know me. I’m”

At that point the bell rang, the teacher walked in, told everyone to be quiet, and started class. When class was over, he was out the door before I could even try to continue the conversation.

I looked for him in the hallway but didn’t see him. I continued walking to my 3rd period class and looked for him there. No such luck. However, there was a new girl there. Never saw her before. She sat right in front of me, turned around and said, “Hello Katie.” Of course, I was shocked. I had no idea who she was.

“Excuse me! Do we know each other?”, I asked her.

“Yes! I’m”

At that point the bell rang, the teacher walked in, told everyone to be quiet, and started class. When class was over, he was out the door before I could even try to continue the conversation. I was getting tired of this.

She was in my 4th period class also. Again, class began before I could find out who she was. And of course, she was out the door as soon as class ended. Next was lunch. Both of them came and sat next to me. She was on my left and he was on my right.

“OK.”, I said. “Who are you. How do y’all know me.”

“Come on, Katie.”, she said. “We’re”

Wouldn’t you know it. Somebody pulled the fire alarm. Everybody plowed out of the school. We were separated. I had no clue where either of them went.

5th period came and I didn’t see either of them. The same with 6th. When it was time to go home, I caught a ride with Becky like I do every day. Before pulling off, my 2 unknown friends got inside the car.

“OK”, I said. “Finally, tell me who you are.”

“We’re your brother and sister.”

“What! I’m an only child.”

Why have you never told me that I was adopted.
