Chapter 18... Facing Someone Who Could Be A Part Of Me

I made eye contact with him. He seemed to looked confused because I was looking at him. He was a lot older from what I seen in the picture I found years ago. His green eye stood out like John's did, they were captivating yet they were filled with evil and hate as he looked deep into my blue eyes. He narrowed his eyes like he was squinting, probably looking at my blue eyes, trying to match me with someone he knew

"Honey may I help you?" The woman asked again

I snapped out of my thoughts as I looked at the woman who was now inches away from my face on the opposite side of the desk

"Oh I'm sorry." I said as I chuckled

I could feel my face go red, she nodded and smiled at me

"It's okay dear don't worry about it."

The woman came from behind the desk to me. She stood there face to face with me. She was taller than I was and looked about my moms age or older. She had long kind of grey kind of white hair that was neatly tied into a bun, she wore like a white nurse. It's was similar to the ones nurses would wear back in the day, she even had the little hat with the red cross on it. She wore white work shoes to match everything

"Are you here to see someone?" She asked

"Yes."

"Who are you here to see?" She asked

I froze, I didn't really remember his name. My mind had blanked. I looked over to the man quickly

"Him." I said

She looked over but he was looking away from us now

"Oh Scott." She said

"Yes him." I said

"What's your name dear?"

"Aurora."

She started to write down my name

"Crumby." I added

When I said my last name she looked in awe, she looked at me almost like I was an alien

"Is Mia your mom?" She asked

"Yes." I said

She nodded and continued to write down my name. She place her clipboard on the desk, she walked over to him, I followed behind her

"Mr. Ranson you have a visitor." She said

He looked at her

"I do?" He asked

"Yes." I said appearing from behind the woman

"Here sit down." The woman said

I sat down on the couch in the lobby and he sat in the chair across from me, the woman soon walked away from us going back to her desk. Most of the people that were in the lobby had left, leaving us almost alone. We were the only two in the living room like area. I looked at the man who sat in front of me and that's when I noticed that he looked like John and so did Mrs. Hayden. No John can't be their child, the dates that she told me plus the ones that John told me don't match up. It's silly to think that

"I haven't had a visitor for a few years." He said

"But anyways who are you?" He added

I took a deep breath in

"My name is Aurora Crumby."

I paused as he looked at me in an odd way. He paused, probably remembering the last name because he knew my dad
