A week passed after Juliet broke up with him. Shawn still wanted Juliet but then he met this woman. She was older than him but not by much and Shawn found her very attractive.

She was sitting alone at a diner. Shawn watched her for a half hour before deciding it was safe to say hello.

"Whoever he is doesn't deserve you" he says and she gapes at him.

"Excuse me?" she asks. Shawn clears his throat. "Sorry, I just been watching you a while and noticed no one joined you. I can't believe any guy would stand up someone as pretty as you" he says.

The woman gives him a small smile. "Well thanks, actually I wasn't meeting a date here today" she says.

"Oh, do you mind if I join you then?" Shawn asks. She looks a little hesitant so Shawn backs off.

"Sorry, never mind then" he says and she shakes her head. "I don't mean to hurt you, I think you're very sweet but I am meeting someone here" she says.

"Really?"

"Yeah, see I was adopted when I was a baby but my parents never told me till just recently. They passed away a few nights ago but the last thing they told me was that I was adopted, they said they didn't want to leave without me knowing" she says.

"I am so sorry" Shawn murmurs.

"Yeah" she says softly. She then clears her throat. "I did find the woman who gave birth to me and she agreed to meet me here today" she says.

"Well then good luck to you, my name is Shawn, I hope that after we can maybe try a date" he says.

"My name's Katie and maybe we can" she says and they shake hands.

Just then Shawn's mother walks in. "Mom? What are you doing here?" Shawn asks and Madeline freezes.

"Goose…what a surprise" she says. Katie's eyes widened. "Shawn? I don't think we can date after all" she says.

"Why?" Shawn asks then it dawns on him. "Mom? You're Katie's mom as well?" he asks.

Madeline looks to Katie and Shawn glances at both of them. He can see the resemblance and his face drains of color.

"I have to get out of here" he mutters. He goes back to his table and puts down some money to pay for the juice and toast he received before walking out.

"Shawn wait!" Madeline cries but Shawn ignores her.
