My Mother Faked Being Pregnant So We Would Love Her

hey guys I'm Nora and what I'm about to share with you is a secret that brought a lot of embarrassment to my family well it's hard to keep it a secret anymore because my mom's twisted lie didn't hold for too long although it did cause damage that could never be fixed it taught me a huge lesson a lie may work in the present but it has no future you see I used to have a normal life I grew up in a normal family with the most loving dad whom I consider being a mentor and a role model in life my mother however was never that loving I could never put all the pieces together and understand why she was never around or why she never told me I love you not even once but that was the norm for me and I never gave it much attention until one day I found out that her odd behavior had a crazy explanation she had been keeping a really dark fifteen-year-old secret that eventually came out and changed everything I know it pains me to say this but as I grew older my mom became even more distant she didn't approve of anything I did and believe me I was really trying to be a good daughter my mother only cared about herself she loved to go out with her friends shop for the most expensive things or party all night long she never cooked or cleaned never helped me with my homework or kiss me goodnight also her relationship with dad was always tense and cold I haven't seen them hug or smile at each other in ages and now I realize that's not normal they barely talked to each other anymore which makes dinner eating's really awkward and uncomfortable mom never worked a day in her life meaning that the comfortable lifestyle that she so very much enjoyed was because of dad yes he worked and still works a lot and didn't really have the time to give mom the attention she so desperately wanted all the time soon enough their marriage hit rock bottom their entire relationship had fallen apart because when Dad was home all he wanted to do was sleep or be alone and read a book unfortunately mom had demands expectations she used to scream at dad why didn't you take the trash out can't you see the house is a mess why can't you make more money poor dad he never said anything to her until one day when he had enough and just left but not before whispering in my ear in the end everything will be all right Nora I blamed him for leaving me alone with mom and I remember crying for nearly a month I truly thought I had lost him for good as the days and weeks went by mom got crazier and crazier I don't want to see you Nora get out of the room and she kept repeating those phrases for two whole months one day out of the blue mom finally got out of her room I couldn't believe my eyes but she was actually smiling I asked her if everything was okay because she seemed better without hesitation she replied I'm perfect Nora I figured out a way to bring dad back I thought to myself oh wow this is amazing we were going to be a family again yay that day mom had the brightest smile on her face and I couldn't figure out why until she told me I'm pregnant Nora and she showed me the test was positive oMG I thought to myself I've always wanted a baby brother or sister and at that moment I honestly believe dad would finally come back when he hears the news mom and I decided to break to death and news together she told me to call him and ask him to come by the house to talk he agreed to stop by and after 30 minutes of how are you and are you doing okay mom asked me to tell Dad the big news with tears in my eyes and filled with excitement I screamed we're gonna have a baby because I was so happy at that moment I didn't realize that he didn't even flinch I thought he's in shock he's gonna be fine and I continued my victory dance one week later dad moved back to the house and for the first time in my life things were getting better in the family mom stopped being cold and demanding and she actually began showing some respect towards dad she came home after a doctor's appointment to tell us the pregnancy was evolving perfectly and that we were gonna have a baby girl a sister holy-moly finally five months later I could see mom's belly growing beautifully we decided to name the baby Sophia and organize a baby shower with all of our closest friends everyone had the best time at the party except dad who didn't seem like himself maybe he still can't believe that he's going to be a father again I assumed right after the party I went upstairs to look for my phone but I remembered it was in the living room so I came back and caught mom having the most secretive conversation with her BFF I can't believe it worked they actually believe I'm pregnant my mom said apparently the pregnancy test was rigged she actually drew another line with a red pencil to make me believe it was a real test and I fell for it I instantly froze couldn't move my arms or legs and just stood there hoping to wake up from a really bad nightmare oMG mom why would you do that I felt angry and frustrated and just couldn't believe she would do such a terrifying thing faked a pregnancy just to get back with dad I wanted so badly to tell him the truth but I couldn't at the end of the day I was just as fourteen-year-old daughter what if he didn't believe me I kept my mouth shut for another two months and watched how my mother's belly was getting bigger and bigger unbelievable right I had to find a way to expose her I decided it was time to take matters into my own hands I sneaked into our room the next morning while she was in the shower and placed my phone above the TV right between some books so that she couldn't see it I hit the record video button and quickly hid under the bed as I didn't have time to get out can you believe there were like ten pillows in different sizes under the bed all of them were mom's baby at different stages of her pregnancy she got out of the shower got dressed and stretched her hand right under the bed to get one of the pillows she almost caught me but thank God she didn't reach far enough to since I was under the bed that date was probably the weirdest of my entire life because I had to face her I had to look her in the eyes and pretend I still believe she's pregnant as she was getting dressed she started shouting where are you Nora and I was right there under the bed when all of a sudden the phone that was recording her started beeping oh no fortunately she thought the sound was coming from another room and she left to check it out right on time for me to grab it stop the recording turn it off and pretend I just entered the room I'm right here mom at that very instant as she was looking straight into my eyes I could feel she knew I had uncovered her lie but she didn't say anything and just left slamming the door behind her that evening before mom returned home from yet another fake appointment I decided to show the recording to my dad mom secret was killing me and I had to tell him the truth I approached him and said you have to press play dad and please don't hate me he watched the video until the end and believe it or not he started laughing afterwards he said Oh Nora I knew about mom's life from the very beginning I was like what you know and you didn't say anything it turned out that dad only agreed to get back with mom to be close to me again also he had planned to ask mom for a divorce for quite some time but he was aware that he couldn't get full custody without proving she wasn't capable of raising a teenage girl so he waited patiently to see how her master plan unfolded now he had all the evidence in the world to demonstrate to a lawyer that mom had serious psychiatric problems I have the best and smartest dad in the world the next day his lawyer came by the house to break down the news to my mother she couldn't believe the papers in front of her were divorce papers the lawyer brought real evidence that proved dad was unable to have kids anymore and we showed her the video to mom burst into tears her plan failed big time she admitted to the lie started crying and begging for forgiveness sadly she didn't get any I have to congratulate my dad for having the patience to live with us for nearly five months knowing about mom's lie all along he's a really tough guy I give him that but soon enough I found out that my mom didn't have it easy to in fact I started to understand why she was such a trouble person on the court day mom decided it was time to share with us the secrets she had been keeping for 15 years a shocking secret that made me lose trust in my own mother as the trial was happening my mom stood up in court and claimed with anger that my father cannot have custody of me because the fact is that he is not even my father everyone who is present at court looked shocked and they started talking my mother ignored the noise and she kept going yes that's right we got married because he thought I was pregnant with his child I had a big secret that was eating me from the inside and I was forced to live with it for 15 years she then looked at me and said that's right Nora go take a DNA test and you'll see I was speechless could that be actually true I looked at my dad and he was furious you are a liar first you faked your pregnancy and now this no test in the world can deny that I'm not in Roe's dad you monster he screamed and then I decided that I didn't even want to know because the person standing there is my dad that's right I said it with a loud voice I don't believe you and I don't care what you say for all I know this person cares about me the most in this world and he is my dad everyone looks surprised by my response especially my mother who later lost the case and currently has no right to even visit me twisted right I know I'm only 14 and I shouldn't judge but what mom did was not okay what kind of mother treats a daughter like she did it's been a year since I moved in with my dad and in all honesty I've never been happier right now I can't forgive my mother for what she did at least not yet maybe I don't have the maturity to do it or maybe she doesn't deserve my forgiveness what did you think of my story do you think that what my mom said could be true please let me know your thoughts in the comment section below and don't forget to like this video and subscribe to the channel
