Chapter 7: I Love You
Emma's mom approached her very slowly. Emma was speechless. She finally
said something.
"I'm sorry for ruining your evening; at least you had something fun to do-
"How could you do something so stupid?" Emma's mom screamed.
"I messed up, I'm a dumb kid!"
"No, you're not. That's the confusing thing. You took drugs Emma. You had
an accident. You could have been killed!"
"Like you've never made a mistake? By maybe having me?"
"It's not the same thing."
Emma lay there very upset.
"Emma, why did you do this?"
"Because everything sucked! I lost my friends and Snake has cancer and all
you care about is Jack! Is that what you wanted to hear?"
"I had no idea. I'm so sorry."
"Yeah, you should be."
"Look, I only have one thing to say. No matter what happens, you can always
come to me for anything. I love you more than anything. You were my first
child Emma. You are what matters the most. Don't you ever forget that,
okay?" Spike was in tears.
"Mom, I'm so sorry if I upset you. Taking drugs was the only way people
would care about me."
"Don't say that Emma. Even when I'm obsessing over Jack, I'm thinking of
you. I love you."
"I love you too Mom." Emma and her mom were hugging and they were both
crying.
"You can come in now Snake, mother-daughter bonding is over," Spike said.
"Are you okay Emma? Is everything fine?" Snake asked.
"Yes, I'm okay now. I've got the best family ever! Where's Jack?"
"He is with Manny in the waiting room," Spike said.
"I love you both. I love Jack too."
"We love you too."
The three of them had a family hug. Emma was happy that she has a family
that cares about her.
Dr. Morgan returned. "She is safe to go home. Please don't do this again
Emma."
"I promise I won't. I just want to go home and be with my family and
friends."
"Sure, no problem."
So Emma went home with her family and asked Manny, Ashley and Craig to come
with them.
They arrived at the Nelsons' house.
"Before I take a nap, I want to say something," Emma said. "I would like to
apologize to everyone for doing what I did. I was under a lot of stress,
but drugs are not the answer. I wish I could go back into the past and not
take drugs."
"You are forgiven Emma. Everyone here loves you dearly and we know that
you're sorry. We trust that you'll never do it again," Spike said.
"I.love.Emma!" Jack said. He learned how to say that.
"I love you too Jack!!"
"Emma, you're the best!" Manny screamed.
"Yeah, who doesn't like you?" Ashley said, while Craig nodded in agreement.
"Thanks guys. I feel like taking my nap now. Night night."
"Good night Emma!" everyone said simultaneously.
(Everything is good between Emma and her friends! But what will people be
gossiping about at school on Monday? Wanna know? Do you really wanna? Find
out in chapter 8! There will also be a little thing between Sean and Emma,
