Ephram was walking through the woods of Everwood. Madison was at home and he had some time to just think about what had been happening. As he neared the quiet streets of Everwood he saw a man looking like he was lost. Ephram sighed and went over to him.

"Hello my name is Ephram. May I help you find somewhere or something," he asked looking suspicious.

"Um yeah maybe you can. I'm looking for a girl. Her name is Madison. Madison Lancaster. (I don't know her last name so I'm just using her real one)

"Um yeah I know her. Why are you looking for her," asked Ephram confused. How did this guy know Madison?

"Well actually she's my daughter you see," he said shifting uncomfortably.

"Your her..father," asked Ephram. He suddenly had a hatred for this guy. If he really was who he said he was he wasn't going anywhere near Madison.

"Yeah she um ran away from home a couple years ago. She's a troublemaker and.." Ephram cut him off right there.

"No! She's no troublemaker you're an asshole," he screamed as he lunged towards the old guy. All his anger towards this guy had leashed out and Ephram couldn't hold back. After a few minutes of fighting he felt someone hold him back. Madison? He stopped punching him and turned around to see the young women's teary eyes.

Don't hurt him," whispered Madison hoarsely.

Ephram stood up slowly and glared at the guy who was now trying to get up. Ephram turned towards Madison and gently took her hands away from her eyes.

"Hey its ok. I'm sorry I was just"

He stopped and looked towards her father. Her father looked up and straightened himself.

"Um well Madison I'm sorry meet like this" he started but Madison cut him off.

"I'm just sorry I had to see you again at all then again seeing you getting hurt just like you hurt me is a good way to see you again I suppose," she said feeling the tears start to come

Ephram noticed this and immediately went to her aid. She shrugged him off and looked into her father's gaze.

"You hurt me. You thought I was a mistake," she whispered quietly. Ephram put his arm around her and gently kissed her.

"You don't have to do this Madison," he whispered quietly into her ear.

"Let me finish," she whispered.

"All my life I hated you and now you want to make peace with me? Well I'm sorry but its not going to happen," she said forcefully.

"Madison- she waved him off.

"Just go home...please," she whispered and turned around. Ephram ran up to her but turned around and glared.

'Go to hell," he said and walked off with Madison.
