Mac and Olivia walked back into the court room and no more questions were asked of Olivia and Mac didn't ask anymore about her mother. Mac tried her last case of the day and Olivia and her walked to the car to go home. They got in the car and started to drive home. When they got to a red light Olivia unbuckled and started to get out of the car but Mac was faster then she was and she grabbed the door and shut it before Olivia got out.
"Let me go!" Whack ,Olivia slapped Mac across the face and when she did this she was a little surprised, what was Mac going to do. All Mac did was buckle the seat belt, Olivia seeing this started to scream and kept hitting Mac.
"Let me go! I want to leave, leave me alone, you're not my mother you can't keep me here!! Mac took Olivia's hands and held them down and said.
"I know I'm not your mother and I am never going to able to replace her and I don't want to, but this bad attitude is not going to bring your mother back she is gone Olivia, and like it or not I'm the only person now that wants you and loves you, and I'm not going to leave you and if I have to chase you from state to state your not going to leave me, now if your worried that I'm going to replace her don't because nobody can replace her, but maybe me and you can be good friends but you need to start listening and stop running away. Lets go back home and forget this little scene happened and we get home we need to sit down and talk, I mean really talk, I don't think it was right for your social worker to think you could work this all out by yourself .
Mac drove to her house and when she got to the apartment she looked at Olivia.
"When we go upstairs we need to talk I know you don't want to but I think we need to sort this out we need to find out why you are so angry and want to run away. I know we're not going to get to the root of the problem right away but we need to start ok"
Olivia looked at Mac and nodded yes. "Good then lets go upstairs alright"
Olivia and Mac went upstairs, " I want to go to my room and sleep is that ok" said Olivia
Yeah that's ok I'll wake you up in about an hour or so that way you can go to sleep tonight and then maybe we can talk ok"
Olivia went into her room and closed the door, she looked at the window and thought about going down again but where would she go who would take her in maybe she would go but not now she was so tired that all she wanted to do was go to sleep and go into a dream world and dream about her mother that is all she wanted she just wanted her mother what was she going to do without her
