Mia was helping Apollo find the adoption center he was taken to when he was only a few months old.
"Do you want to go in alone?" Mia asked. Apollo looked at her.
"You can come if you want," Apollo said. Mia nodded as they went in. The director was behind the desk.
"Can I help you?" she said.
"Hi," Apollo said. "Um were you here like twenty-two years ago? February, 2005?" The woman looked in thought. Then she smiled.
"Yes," she said. "Why do you ask?"
"Well you may not remember me as the last time you saw me I was just a few months old." The woman gasped. "I was taken here like twenty-years ago."
"Oh," she said. She smiled. "I can't believe it."
"What?" Apollo asked.
"I never thought this day would come," she said. She led Apollo and Mia to the back.
"I remember it like it was it was yesterday," she said searching through her desk. "I was about your age when it happened actually. Your mother came in and she looked so beautiful. You were in her arms."
"She was?" Apollo said. 'At least she was honest about that.'
"She looked so like magical," the lady said. "But she looked so sad and like she was in so much pain." Apollo nodded.
"I guess," he said. Mia put her hand on his shoulder. Apollo smiled.
"Ah here it is," the lady said. Apollo looked over. "Your mother told me to hang on to this until the day you came back."
"How'd she know?" Apollo asked. The lady smiled.
"She said that you would always know how to find the truth," she said. She held out the cloth. Apollo's eyes widened even though you could only see the one.
"It was the shawl she carried you with the day she came," the lady said. "She only had two requests aside from of course finding you a great family. One being that you keep your first name and the other being that you keep your bracelet." Apollo looked at his bracelet.
'The only thing that kept me close to my mother,' Apollo thought. He took another look at the shawl in the woman's hands. His eyes watered. The lady gave Apollo the shawl.
"Thank you," he said. He turned toward Mia.
"Now you know she always kept you close to her," she said. Apollo nodded. "It looks just like your mother's huh?" Apollo nodded. "Thank you." She led Apollo out of the building. He started crying.
"Do you want to go home?" Mia asked. Apollo looked at Mia. He smiled and nodded.
Thalassa drank her drink. Trucy looked at her mother not wanting to keep the tension up.
"It's getting late," Athena said. Phoenix looked over from the couch. "How long should we wait boss?"
"When Apollo's ready," Phoenix said. The door knocked. Thalassa looked up. Juniper woke up. Phoenix got up and answered the door. Thalassa smiled as soon as she saw who was at the door.
"Hi Mom."
AN: The last chapter. Yay a happy ending. To be honest I'm planning a similar story but takes pace about 20 months earlier. Whether or not I gets published is for me to decide. I hoped you enjoyed! R&R
