"Theresa how could you?" Atlanta's voice was still echoing in her head, even if she was sleeping. Theresa woke up and was sweating again.
"Think about other people..." Theresa heard again. Atlanta's words were buzzing around in her head. Think about other people Theresa. Stop thinking about you! It's not going to help save the world. What about Jay, Theresa? Are you going to just let him, Archie, Atlanta, Herry and hopeless Neil protect the earth by themselves? Stop it! Don't see Daddy! Theresa's thoughts were different than her actions. Her thoughts were saying it was a completly bad idea to go home, but her actions wouldn't give up, saying that she was going to see Dad no matter what.
"Ah!" Theresa screamed, waking up from her sleep. The door burst open again and Atlanta, Archie, and Jay were there again.
"What now Theresa...?" Atlanta asked, trying to resist not telling Archie about Theresa leaving. I can't tell them nightmares again...they'll get suspicious...
"Uh...I thought I saw...something on my door." Theresa stammered. Atlanta looked at Theresa and raised her eyebrow.
"Probably...um...just all that sushi you ate from...the restraunt...you know?" Atlanta lied.
"What? I thought you guys didn't go. So how did you?" Archie asked, suspiciously. Atlanta didn't know what to say.
"They probably just ended up going." Jay said. Atlanta sighed.
"Yeah so you guys can go now. See ya later." Atlanta said, waiting for the boys to leave so that she could talk to Theresa. Archie waited to race Atlanta but she stayed where she was. Atlanta waved at Archie cheerfully and when he closed his door she looked at Theresa and her cheery face turned into a confused one.
"I can't lie to them, Theresa. I really want to help you, I do. But Archie is my best buddy, and I just can't lie. You just have to not tell anyone by yourself." Atlanta said.
"B-but your keeping it a secret right?" Theresa asked. "Right?" Atlanta sighed and nodded, barely agreeing.
