"Your mother almost dies and you can't even take the time to go and see her in the hospital." His father said in anger.
Eli just stood there.
"Get out! Get out! Get out!" His mother yelled.
Again, he just stood there.
"It's not like I even want to talk to you" Grace said.
He tried to run this time but it was pointless he could not move.
"You're a failure." His father said.
"You'll always be a failure." His mother said.
"You'll never change." Grace said.
"But I…." Eli started to speak in an attempt to apologize.
"But you what? You lied!" His father said.
"You smoked dope!" His mother said.
"You never showed up!" Grace said.
"Stop it! Please stop it!" Eli screamed.
Eli woke up with a jolt. They were right and he knew it. He was a failure. He was a disappointment to ever one. He had been his whole life.
"What are you thinking about?" Rick asked Lily as she stared off into space.
"I was thinking I should be asleep."
"And why aren't you?"
"I'm thinking about Grace. So what's your excuse?"
"I'm thinking about Eli."
"What have you come up with? Anything useful?"
"None, you?"
"Nothing too, well at least they have each other." Lily said with a smile.
"And remind me again how that's a good thing."
"Because Grace isn't going to let Eli doing anything horrible as long as he's with her."
"And Eli hopefully won't let Grace do anything horrible as long as she's with him."
"That's the least we could hope for."
"Grace…" Grace turned around to see her mother and Jessie behind her.
"Yes mom?"
"I wanted to tell you that I adopted Jessie. Aren't you happy?"
"I'm ecstatic." She said sarcastically.
She started to walk a little further and Mr. Dimitri was in front of her again with Jessie. "Grace…"
"Mr. Dimitri?"
"I wanted to tell you that I've found the lead of my next play. It is Jessie. Aren't you glad?"
"Very." She said through grinded teeth.
She started to walk a little further. Eli came up to her. "Guess what?"
"What now?"
"I've well… I just want for you to be the first to know I've meet someone."
"Great…" She said again not happy. "Excuse me I need to get through."
She walked on a little further. Then her dad came up. "Grace, meet you new little sister. She is the best one yet. Now I have my two perfect daughter, her and Zoe."
"Wonderful I hope you three all have a great life together." She said and walked off. This time no one came up to, meet her. That is when she realized she was alone.
Grace woke up in a panic. She looked around her room and realized it was true. She was alone.
