Disclaimer: I do not own any of the 7th heaven characters. I d however own
guy and Mr. Lawrence. Oh and for whoever cares another person in this
chapter, Liz bishop I don't own her she is an actual news reporter.
Ruthie had never been so frustrated over any of Mary's decisions. She loved Mary, that was for sure but she didn't see why going to college was such a big deal. She decided to give it a rest for a few days. Maybe she could do some "investigating" around the house and see if there was another reason behind Mary not going to college. She still had 2 weeks left to get her to change her mind. Just then the twins came down followed by Lucy who was holding their hands.
Lucy: Hey Ruthie
Ruthie: (sighing) Hi Luce
Lucy: What's wrong?
Ruthie: Nothing. I wish Mary would jus change her mind.
Lucy: Oh
Lucy then took the twins outside to play. Ruthie decided to go up to her room and do some homework. When she went through to the living room she found the TV still on and the news playing.
Announcer: And here is Liz Bishop with some recent developments on why teenagers are deciding NOT to go to college
Ruthie decided to watch this segment that oddly enough seemed to be talking to her. Liz was standing out in front of some high school in Ballston spa New York.
Liz: We are here at Ballston Spa High school with Mr. Lawrence, the school guidance councilor to tell us why many seniors are they don't want to go to college.
Mr. Lawrence: Well Liz I have discovered that seniors choose not to go to college because they are afraid of failure. Many seniors at one point of their high school lives had done some things and feel they can't live through college fearing they may do another thing that is stupid.
Liz: Now have you talked to any seniors about this?
Mr. Lawrence: Yes and they all say the same thing. They fear college.
Liz: Thank you very much Mr. Lawrence now on to the weekly forecast.
Ruthie turned off the TV. Is that why Mary won't go to college? Does she fear that her mistakes in high School will double in college? Does she fear college? Ruthie decided to go upstairs and ask Mary these questions herself.
Ruthie: Hey Mary
Mary: Hey Ruthie
Ruthie: Mary is the reason you're not going to college because you fear college?
Mary: What? Why would I fear college?
Ruthie: Because you made mistakes in high school and don't want to make the same mistakes in college
Mary: (angrily) I have no idea what your talking about!
Ruthie: Then what is the real reason you won't go to college?
Just then Reverend Camden came into the room.
Eric: Yeah I'd like to know that answer too.
