Jamie: I'd love to see you're paintings sometime Emma.
Emma: If you come to visit you can see them all. My whole room is covered in my paintings.
Em: My whole room is covered in clothes.
Landon: What is it with clothes?
Em: I love clothes. I'm a shop alcoholic
Landon: Have you thought of becoming a designer when you grow up?
Em: A little. I think it would be fun to make clothes.
Jamie: I was never much into fashion or makeup.
Em: Why not?
Jamie: I was more comfortable wearing clothes I found comfortable and my dad never let me wear makeup growing up. I never cared that I wasn't aloud too. It's the inside that God looks at.
Neela: Very true.
Jamie: So, how did you two meet and fall in love?
Neela: He was an intern to an older doctor it was my second year; we first meet at a gas station I worked out. We than become roommates, but he was a little to mess and never really helped so after a year I kicked him out of the apartment.
Ray: The real reason she kicked me out is because she was in love with a man named Michael and me.
Landon: What happened to Michael?
Neela: He was fighting overseas a few months after we were married. He was killed in a car bombing.
*Ray rubs her back.*
Landon: I'm sorry I asked.
Neela: It's ok. It's in the past. I'm looking towards the future now.
Jamie: What about you Ray?
Ray: Well I'm also a musician. Before I proposed to Neela I was in a band, so I meet a lot of girls but the relationships never lasted.
Landon: What finally brought you too together?
Neela: Ray was drunk and was run over by a truck. He was paralyzed. He was dating another women at the time and he want home with his mom. Katie, his ex girlfriend, blamed me. He came back after the summer and proposed to me.
Jamie: So, if you don't mind me asking... Are those...
Ray: Yes there artificial legs. I am to in depend to have stayed in a wheel chair for the rest of my life.
Landon: It's a miracle that truck didn't kill you.
Ray: That's one of the things that lead me back to God. I grow up in a Christian home, but I had walked away from my childhood faith, but this summer I started going to church with my mom. When I came back to Chicago I found out Neela had also started going to church.
Neela: I didn't grow up in a Christian home, but after Ray's accident I started thinking about the big picture. The first time I want to church was because my friend Abby, who has also never been to church in till than had decided to go and asked me to come with her.
Jamie: What did your parents think?
Neela: My dad disowned me, my mom won't talk to me, but I don't mess them. I'm happy with the little family I have here.
