Lena's: POV
Here l am standing over the casket staring at my mother's body. This seems unreal, she doesn't look like woman
I use to call mom mommy. I spent last night writing a long letter of things l wanted to get off my chest while Stef and the kids were sleeping. Mother the day you throw me out the house and saying that I was no longer your daughter
I couldn't continue on living a lie, l knew after I reveal my sexuality to you our relationship would never be the same again. I went to Manhattan new York and stayed with auntie Olivia and Alex the ones you forbid me and my sisters from seeing, you act like it choose to be a lesbian.
It felt like I was drowning inside. The summer l went away
Was a life changing experience, l learned so much about myself the two months l was there. I met someone who told me l didn't have to be ashamed of what I was feeling inside, that when I knew l couldn't hold this secret in any longer. I finally felt free for the first time in my life
I went off to college at university of Columbia studied basic of terminology skills medicine and went to medical school and received my degree as a pediatrician. I worked in the hospital for a few years, then I met the most beautiful amazing woman we dated for three years got married and started a family. I gave birth to twins
A boy named Xander and a daughter Francesca Elizabeth
After you, l remember you use to tell me if l ever had a daughter she would turn out like me. Their the other half of my heart, l wish they had got to know you. I wrote you and sent pictures, we lived in Hillsborough California
My wife Stephanie is a district attorney who fights to make this world a better place. About two years ago
I opened up my own practice called the Adams children's clinic, you could say l took after you in practicing medicine, it's in my blood l guest. Olivia and Alex picked up where you left off, they gave me the love l was lacking
They never tried to take your place, l love you mommy
Lena leaned down and kissed her mother's head l
Walked out of the funeral home with her head held high
With a huge weight off my shoulders. Got into the car
As we drove off to the airport, l know my sister's might be mad at me for not sticking around l did what l came here to do. Stef held my hand as she drives, this woman was my life.
