Crystal woke to the usual clanking noises from the kitchen. I wonder what Nat is cooking up for this breakfast? She thought, smiling. But she knew that today was the ngày she had to tell Nat the truth. She walked into the phòng bếp, nhà bếp as Nat was placing the last of the Sô cô la chip bánh quế, bánh kem sữa waffle on the table. Nat noticed her," Well, look who finally woke up. I thought bạn were going to sleep forever!" Crystal smiled at her. She sat at the bàn and Nat handed her a plate with two Sô cô la chip bánh quế, bánh kem sữa waffle on it. " Where's Flare? She's usually awake bởi now." Crystal asked. "She's outside playing. She was wanting to wait until bạn woke up to eat. I'll go get her." Nat walked outside for a couple giây and came back inside with Flare. She smelled the bánh quế, bánh kem sữa waffle and ran into the kitchen. She saw Crystal and gave her a big hug. " Good morning Mom! Did bạn sleep well?" Flare asked. Crystal hugged her back," I slept just fine, thank you." Flare smiled and sat down to eat. Crystal stared at her food, but didn't feel hungry. " Mom?" Crystal jumped and looked up and saw Nat looking at her," Are bạn ok? bạn look as if bạn seen a ghost." Crystal nodded, " Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking that's all." "Ok, but if your not feeling good, bạn better tell me. bạn haven't even taken a bite of your food." Nat got up to wash off her plate. Crystal got up, " Nat, I have to tell bạn something." Nat looked at her, " What is it, Mom?" Crystal was about to cry," Nat...You're adopted." Nat dropped the plate in the sink and looked at Crystal. Flare stared at her also. " I'm...Adopted?" Nat đã đưa ý kiến in disbelief. Crystal nodded," It was 14 years ago, when bạn were only one. I was walking trang chủ late from work. It was before I started the restaurant. It was about to rain and the thunder was really loud. I walked bởi an alley and thunder boomed loudly. I was startled bởi it and stopped for a quick second. That's when I heard the crying of a baby. I looked around and didn't see anyone with a baby and realized it was coming from the alley. I looked around until I found bạn in a little box. I picked bạn up and found a note. It said,' Give Natalie a good trang chủ please.' That's when I took bạn trang chủ and bạn became my kid." Nat walked to the bàn and sat down, " I don't know what to say." " bạn can say thanks." Flare said. Nat and Crystal just stared at her crazily. " Just think, Mom doesn't know how long bạn were out in that alley. Dozens to hundreds of people walked bởi you, hearing bạn crying and didn't do a thing. Mom rescued you. That makes her the best mom in the world." Crystal and Nat just looked at her. Nat walked over to Crystal and hugged her. "Thank bạn mom." Crystal hugged her back and Flare joined in too. " Now let's hurry up and get ready, We have to get to work in thirty minutes!" Nat said.
