Emma Smith

by CeriseHood5050

This is my life. My name is Emma Smith, Sarah Jane's adopted daughter. I had time travelled and ended up in Victorian England, however, I had only just returned a few months ago. It is now January 2012 and this is my story.

11. Mum's departure

11. Mum's departure

It was a very quiet morning at first. I was playing with some of my toys when Mum's phone rang. She answered it. "Yes?" Mum left the room. I looked at Sarah Jane. "Who is calling her?" I asked.
"No idea." She replied.

Soon, Mum walked back into the room, looking grim. "I have to leave." She announced.
"Why?" Sarah Jane asked.
"The Qetesh told me that I need to be away from my daughter for a few years."
"Why? None of this makes any sense!"
"I know it doesn't, but, Sarah Jane, you have to be strong for Emma. Please, at least do that for me, please?"
"I'll try." She replied. Mum nodded. She then knelt down beside me.

"Will I ever see you again?" I asked.
"You certainly will," she replied. "But, unfortunately, that will be in a few years. But you have that to look forward to." I nodded.
"I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too, Emma. But you have to be strong. Please, don't give up."
"I won't." I promised. "I'll never give up."
"Thank you." She smiled before she hugged me close. I hugged her back, sobbing. "There now, don't cry. You'll see me soon. Until then, Sarah Jane will keep you company." We released one another and Mum disappeared.
