" She's coming home!… Yes that's right.. Oh its been so long!!"
Marlena said into the phone.
She was talking to Hope Brady about her daughter Belle. Belle had moved to New York 3 years ago, after her devastating breakup with Hopes son, Shawn. She hadn't been seen in Salem since then, but now she was moving back. She needed to be around family.
" Her flight should come in tomorrow at four" Marlena said to Hope over the phone.
" Yes we're very excited…I just hope everything is okay" Marlena said.
"We're planning a party for her.. Tomorrow" Marlena told Hope
" Okay we'll talk later" she said and hung up the phone.
***********************************************************
Hope hung up the phone and walked into the living room. She sat on the couch and thought for a minute.
" Belle's coming back! But what about Shawn…he's got to know.." she thought
Her thoughts were interrupted by the door slamming shut. Shawn and a young brunette walked in. Her name was Stacy. Shawn had met her about four months after Belle had left, they had been dating ever since. In fact they were now engaged, but Belle didn't know that.
" Shawn, I've got some good news!" Hope said smiling at the girl with him.
" Yeah Mom, what is it?" he asked
" Belle is coming home, isn't that great?" Hope said excitedly
" No that's not great!" Stacy burst out.
**********************************************************************
Belle stood on the corner of her street, trying desperately to hail a cab. Finally one slowed down and let her in.
" The airport please" she chirped
The cab slowly pulled off of the cab and Belle sat back and relaxed. She stared out the window at the tall buildings as she passed them.
" God I'm going to miss this" she thought.
" But this is all for the better" she said aloud.
A half an hour later the cab pulled up to the sidewalk in front of the airport, she paid the man and stepped out. She was almost and hour early, so she stopped for a minute to buy a cinnamon bun from a vendor. When she dot to her terminal she sat in a chair and waited. Soon her flight was called and she boarded the plane. She sat in the seat next to the window, and rested her head against it.
" I'm coming home for you Shawn" she said.
The plane took off and she fell asleep.
