Sue was left in a cardboard box as a small child. Luckily, a store clerk took her home and changed the course of her entire life. Now, in the form of an unexpected knock at the door, Sue has to face her past and the disappointment that comes with it. Is this a grand reunion or the biggest disappointment of Sue’s life?
I was left in a cardboard box in a supermarket twenty years ago. I was just a few months old, and all I had to my name were a few photos of my mother and a note.
The note read: I will always love you, Sue.
Nobody knew my surname or whether I had a middle name. Nobody seemed to know my mother or what had happened to my father. I was all alone in a world that didn’t know anything about me.
But even then, at a few months old, I seemed to be fortune’s fool. I was found by a kind store clerk, Ruby, who took me in.
“I couldn’t leave you there, Sue,” she would say whenever the story came up. “I became your guardian shortly after and raised you as my own. You became my little bug.”
Ruby was everything to me. And as I grew, the closer we became.
I was forever grateful that she gave me everything I needed. But still, I never stopped wondering why my mother left me and if she would ever come back.
“I know that it bothers you, darling,” Ruby told me one day as she made lasagna for dinner. “But she’s an enigma now. We have nothing that could lead us to her.”
“I know,” I said, grating more cheese for when the dish was ready. “It’s just frustrating when I start thinking about it.”
“You love the internet, you love social media, Sue. Use it, share your story, maybe it will resonate with people, and you can connect with others just like you.”
She opened the oven and put the tray of lasagna inside.
So I did just that, and I became a well-known video blogger, sharing my story with the world.
“You’ve created a safe platform for people to share their stories, too,” Ruby told me when I read comments from my latest video to her.
“It means something to me,” I said, helping myself to the eclairs on the table.
Fast forward to the present. I am successful and able to provide for myself and my guardian.
“So much for being an abandoned baby,” I said to myself as I washed my face one night.
But imagine my surprise when an unexpected knock on my door changed everything.
I opened the door to find a frail, older woman standing there, her eyes filled with regret and desperation.
“Sue, darling,” she said. “I am your mother, and I need your help!”
I just looked at her, unable to blink for fear of missing the moment.
“Do you still have the note I left with you when I left you safely in the store?”
Safely? I thought to myself. I stood there, paralyzed by the flood of emotions that had come in when she entered my home.
“Yes, I have it,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper. “I kept it.”
“I know I have no right to ask for your help after what I did, but I need you to believe me when I say I had no choice back then. I was running from a dangerous situation. And I thought leaving you in a safe place was the only way to protect you. I needed to disappear.”
Former First Daughters Sasha And Malia Obama Were Spotted Attending Drake’s After-Party In Los Angeles
After Drake’s performance at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Tuesday, August 22, Sasha and Malia Obama went to his after-party at Bird Streets Club.
The two children of former President Barack Obama reportedly liked Drizzy and 21 Savage’s It’s All a Blur Tour’s final L.A. show, according to Page Six. Sasha, a 22-year-old graduate of the University of Southern California, donned cargo leggings and a short black corset.
Malia, her sister of 25 years, paired a loudly printed high-waisted flared pair of trousers with a translucent Knwls top. About four in the morning, two housemates from Los Angeles left the Bird Streets Club.
Following his performances in Los Angeles, Drake threw afterparties for other famous people. Recently, Dennis Graham, Saweetie’s father, and Anderson Paak attended.
Barack Obama called Drake a “talented” person who “seems to be able to do anything he wants” in his 2020 360 With Speedy Morman.
Obama co-signed Drizzy’s prior statement that he would be open to playing the former president in a biopic.He remarked, “You know what, Drake has my household’s seal of approval—more importantly, I think.””I think Malia and Sasha would approve of it.”
Sasha and Malia like Drake, even though their father doesn’t always listen to him. In fact, Obama’s yearly summer playlist featured him lately, owing to the J Hus song “Who Told You.”
Along with “Princess Diana” by Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj, “Drums” by Babyface Ray and Money Man were also included on the list.
Obama was questioned earlier this year by Hasan Minhaj about whether or not he was the real author of those well-known playlists.
He said, “People believe the books and the movies,” and then made a joke about people not playing along with him when he made these playlists. “However, the playlists seem to think—and this is primarily from young people like you—that you guys developed hip-hop and rock ‘n’ roll. Therefore, people seem to assume that, “Well, he must have had some 20-year-old intern who was figuring out this latest cut,” even though my lists are, you know, quite remarkable. No, dude. Right now, it’s on my iPad.”
