"Baby, where have you been? We've been worried; Andrew and Raphael were
looking for you." Tess admonished Emily in private.
"I'm sorry Tess, they couldn't find me. I had a feeling that they would want to talk and the only person I want to talk to is Monica is she back yet?" Emily poured out.
"You'll see her at dinner." Tess said sternly. Emily was surprised at the sternness, but didn't argue because she simply didn't have the energy. She had skipped lunch because of her "trip" into the woods.
Dinner was fun, but through the songs and great meal, Emily looked for Monica. "You'll see her later Em." Krystal kept saying, "Don't worry." However, Emily couldn't help think of her dad and how she might loose him, only Monica would understand.
Tess managed to get over to Monica and after reprimanding her about her assignment switch, she started to talk about Emily. "Now miss wings, a lot has happened since you've been on your excursion."
"Like what?" Monica asked quietly
"Well, Emily, your baby other there has gotten a letter and she hasn't been the same since. She wants to talk, but only to you. And if she doesn't talk to anyone, her feelings will stay bottled up inside like when you first met her."
Monica looked distressed, "What did the letter say?"
"Something that could alter both you and her lives for a long time." Tess proclaimed. Dinner was dismissed even though Emily only picked at her food. Monica came over and sat down on the bench. "Would you like to take a walk?" she asked optimistically. Emily nodded knowing that she would finally get her moment alone with Monica.
Once they were on a trail in the woods, Emily stopped and looked at Monica with empty eyes. Monica turned around and was able to see Emily's hurt. First Emily pulled out the letter and handed it to Monica, then she pulled her locket from behind the neckline of her shirt. After Monica finished reading the letter, she looked at Emily with sympathy, but then Emily opened the locked to display a picture of her mom and a new picture of her dad.
"Since my dad is dying, I figure I'll save some time now and put his picture in here with mom." Emily blurted out.
"No, no, no sweetie. Your dad isn't going to." Monica stopped and paused because for once she couldn't find the right words, "He isn't going to die today, or-" But before she could finish her sentence, Emily turned and ran away. Her angel that was supposed to comfort her just told her that there's a possibility of her father dying in the near future and she didn't want to hear that.
On the way, Emily fell over a rock in the path directly onto her knee. She stayed on the ground for a moment to ease the pain in her leg, but forced herself to stand back up and run because she knew Monica was close behind her, and for some reason, she didn't really want to talk to her anymore.
