The teachers posted assignments to the school website, so the students could do their home work. Since Tommy wasn't home, Kimberly got stuck posting assignments for Tommy's class, since he had all of his lessons plans planned out for the whole year. And she was the only one who knew his password. She was mad because she got stuck posting all of his assignments and would be the one having to grade them.

Several weeks had passed since Tommy last. He took his cell phone and communicator, but he never tried to contact her. It didn't bother her and she wasn't going to let that get since Tommy was on journey being a show off, she started wearing her tracksuits full time. The only time she took it off was to take a shower or when she was teaching swimming. She told herself that Tommy wasn't her boss and she was able to do what ever she wanted to do.

One morning Kimberly got out of bed and swished over to her closet. She got a light pink turtle neck and coral pink tracksuit and laid them on her bed. It was officially "her bed" instead of "hers and Tommy's bed". She walked over to her wedding picture and stared at it.

"Tommy, I can do what ever I want."

After she laid her clothes on the bed, she went into the bathroom to take a shower. Meanwhile, Conner, Ethan, Kira, and Trent were down stairs. It was a really cold day and all of them were dressed in jeans, tee shirts, and sweaters.

"Is it just me or has Kimberly lost her mind?" asked Kira.

"I was getting ready to ask the same question," answered Ethan.

"That's fun, I was getting ready to ask everybody that, myself!" stated Conner.

"And I was am thinking the same thing," confessed Trent.

"It's good to know I'm not the only one who thinks Kim is going crazy," smiled Kira. "She hasn't been the same since Tommy left."

"Wonder why she's acting this way?" asked Ethan.

"Let me think... she misses Dr. O!" declared Kira.

"How do you know?" asked Conner.

"She stares at the pictures of them hanging on the wall in the living room, I've seen her stare at their wedding picture on their dresser, and her background on her computer is a picture of her and Dr. O hugging each other in the swimming pool," answered Kira.

"They've taken several pictures in the pool together," stated Ethan. "It isn't anything special."

"Yes, it is!" corrected Kira. "This picture was taken on the Disney Cruise that they went on during fall break. The pool was in the shape of Mickey Mouse."

"How come you've seen it and we haven't?" asked Conner.

"I'm her aide at school and I help her type up business letters and things like that," answered Kira. "She brings her computer home every day."

"I thought her background on the computer was a picture of a falcon and crane," interrupted Trent.

"She changed the background, shortly after Dr. O left!" informed Kira. "I found out because she told me to post all of Tommy's assignments on the school's website. She was still mad and said she didn't want to give him the time of day."

All of them quickly ate a bowl of cereal, before Kimberly came down stairs. They heard her walk down the stairs, so they left the milk, the cereal, a bowl a spoon, and a glass of juice out for her. She used to be a joy to be around, but now the four teens couldn't stand to be around her. She couldn't understand why all of them were busy and never talked with her anymore. Kimberly poured her cereal and milk into the bowl and quickly ate breakfast.

"Have any plans for the day?" asked Kimberly.

"No, we're going to stay in," answered Conner. "It's too cold to go walking. Yesterday, Kira, Ethan, Trent, and I walked to the mini market to get some groceries. It was cold the whole time."

"Conner, you're not using the right term again!" snapped Kimberly. "You're not using proper grammar! I've told you that we now say swish instead of walking."

"He didn't do anything wrong!" informed Ethan. "Are you going to act this way for the rest of your life?"

"Yes, I am!" shouted Kimberly.

"Are your clothes more important than Dr. O?" questioned Conner.

"Yes, they are!" answered Kimberly. "I'm going outside! All you want to talk about is the man that I no longer love!"

Kimberly grabbed her coat and went outside. Kira and Trent decided to follow her. They knew when she went outside she'd say thing about Tommy. How did they know? Kimberly bragged about being able to go outside and say what ever she wanted to say about Tommy. But, she said they were all bad.

"Ethan give us two tape recorders," ordered Kira. "I'm going to put one in my coat pocket and Trent's going to put one in his. We're going to record what she says. I think she lies, when she tells us that she says horrible things about Dr. O."

Ethan went to his room and go two tape recorders. He put in brand new tapes and a new set of batteries. Kira and Trent put the tapes in their pockets and put their coats on. Trent grabbed Kira's hand and turned invisible. They quietly caught up with Kimberly. As soon as they caught up with her, they started recording everything that she said about Tommy.

"Those kids will believe my lies about how much I hate Tommy. I will never admit to them that I still love him. If I did, I'd have admit that I made another huge mistake. I lost him over the break up letter and now I've lost due to the horrible things that I said to him. I wish that I didn't shove him, when he tried to hug me before he left. I've told them that my tracksuits are more important than him..."

Her voice cracked and she started sobbing.

"No one is out her so I can cry and grieve all I want. I don't anything to get Tommy back. Even if I had to give up these stupid tracksuits to have him back I'd give them up. If he called and said I'm coming home, but I'd like for you to get rid of all your tracksuits, I'd throw them in the fire place and burn all 20 of track suits and all 20 pair of my track pants. I'd welcome him home and be thankful to have him back."

She heard foot steps behind her.

"I hear foot steps behind me, hopefully it's Tommy. He'd probably turn invisible and hug me from behind."

She turned around and saw no one was there.

"I guess I was letting my imagination get the best of me. Things haven't been as been the same since Tommy left. I don't have my best friend any more. I just wish Tommy knew that I still love him, he's still my best friend in the whole entire world, and I JUST WANT HIM BACK! I MISS MY BEST FRIEND MORE THAN ANYTHING! HE'S MY WHOLE LIFE AND I'M LOST WITHOUT YOU, TOMMY! I WISH YOU COULD HEAR ME KNOW! I WISH YOU COULD SEE MY TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE, HEAR MY SOBS, AND SEE THAT I'M DOWN ON MY KNEES GRIEVING. I'VE DOING THIS, EVERY DAY SINCE YOU LEFT!"

Kimberly let out a loud scream that everyone around could hear. Even Conner and Ethan could hear it from inside.

"TOMMY, I HOPE THAT YOU'LL COME BACK TO ME! I WANT YOU BACK! I DON'T WANT TO DO WITHOUT YOU! IF YOU COME BACK, I'LL BE MORE APPERICATIVE TOWARDS YOU, I'LL SHOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, I TRUELY LOVE YOU! I WISH COULD HEAR THIS AND KNOW I MEAN EVERY WORD OF THIS! I JUST WANT YOU BACK! I WAS FOOL FOR TELLING YOU NOT TO COME BACK! I DON'T WANT YOU GETTING AN APPARTMENT OR GOING BACK TO ANGEL GROVE! I WANT YOU TO LIVE WITH ME!"

"I'd stand here and scream all day if I could. But, the kids would hear and I don't know how I can fix the damage and hurt that I've caused Tommy. I love you Tommy, I hope you still love me."

Kimberly started walking back towards the house and Kira and Trent quickly took off running to the house and got inside the house. They took off their coats and put them away.

"Kira was right" cried Trent. "She misses Dr. O!"

"So, that was why we heard her scream so loud!" gasped Ethan. "Tonight, when she goes to bed we'll stay up and you can play the tapes for me and Conner."
