The phone rang deafeningly in the quiet of the night and startled her out of deep sleep, causing her heart to pulsate in her throat. By the time she’d reached for the receiver, it’d stopped ringing. Trying to shake off remaining grogginess, she looked at the glowing screen of the caller ID. Who was calling at this hour? By now, the number looked familiar. Not that she knew who was calling out of state, but someone has called from this number twice in the past three days, and hang up without leaving a message. Although it was past midnight, she couldn’t go back to sleep. After tossing and turning for a few minutes, she got up. She was going to find out who’s been calling her at all hours and not talking. She’d heard of Reverse Phone Lookup, a service that could help one find people, when all you had to go on is a phone number. This means one could also find out who is behind an unfamiliar number. She was going to find out how it works. What was that Web site again? Peoplefind.com, that’s right – pretty self-explanatory, easy to remember. Ah, here it is, and it really is as simple as entering the phone number and searching. When the results came back, her heart began to perform a now-familiar thumping routine. She only had to look at the name once to know who has found her after all these years, and was probably too shy to talk. She had given up a baby for adoption 18 years ago now; had had no choice at the time and under the circumstances. Other than her first name and the last name of the nice couple who adopted her as soon as she was born, she knew nothing of the life her daughter has had or who she’s become. She could only hope the answers to all these questions were positive, but it was better not to ask them all these years. Well, it looked like whether or not she wanted to, she was finally going to find out, and have to answer some hard questions herself. And she wanted to, has longed for this chance for quite some time, and now it was here. She dialed the number.
