My Other Mother Page #3

---

It's a family issue.

- That's Ok, mrs. Meyers.

I got a few errands to run

anyway.

You need anything else?

- No, this was awesome.

Thank you.

Appreciate it.

All right.

Good to see you.

You have a good day.

- Take care.

Ok.

What?

- I think you hurt his feelings.

Oh, please!

Mom, he gets paid enough to get

over it.

Candace and Meyers!

You're so bourgeois.

I wonder where I got it from.

Oh, my god!

Amen.

- Praise Jesus.

Pass the butter, please.

- Oh.

Here you are, daddy.

- Thanks, Candy girl.

More sweet tea, please.

- Ok, coming right up.

Uh-Uh.

That's enough for her.

All right, well, does anybody

want anything while I'm up?

You want some hot sauce or i

have peppers in the fridge.

Or, John, you want anything?

- No, I'm fantastic.

Why are you waitressing,

Candy?

Yeah, stop worrying about us

and just eat.

I just want to make sure

everybody's Ok.

We're Ok.

Sit.

And where is all of this

nervous energy coming from, huh?

Wait.

Are you seeing someone?

What's his name?

- I'm not seeing anyone, Charmaine.

Oh.

Then when are you gonna start?

- I don't know!

Do not snap at your sister,

she's just concerned about you,

as are we all.

- I am fine.

And when i start seeing the

right someone, you all will be

the first five people to know.

- I think Louis is perfect

for you, honey.

I wish you would listen to me.

Mommy, i said the same thing!

- He has love and adoring...

Can we please... can we

please stop talking about my

love life?

I have...

And he has a job!

- I have something...

I have something that i want to

talk to you guys about anyway.

Hmm?

- What's on your mind, baby girl?

I...

I think it's time that I find...

them.

Who's she looking for?

Mom...

I didn't mean to make you upset.

I'm not upset, Candace.

- Clearly.

You have everything going for

you.

A great life, a fabulous career.

Money, fame.

Why now?

- I don't know.

I just feel like it's time.

- At 35 years old?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize there was a

statute of limitations

for me to find my real...

We are your real family...

from day one!

Yeah, and then a miracle

happened.

We never treated you differently

when Charmaine was born,

and you know that.

- I do know that, mom,

but i am different.

And i just... you know, i want

to know who i belong to.

- You belong to me.

To us.

Mom, I'm sorry.

Please don't cry.

So we don't have the same

blood line.

Who cares?

You're still my big sister.

I will allways be, Char, thank you.

- And it's obvious to me

whoever your real parents are,

they don't care about you.

Charmaine!

- Mom, I'm sorry.

Look, they had enough time to

find her.

I mean, duh! All they had to do
