Chapter 20:
3:45 pm. Marissa's plane landed about an hour ago, and figured she would surprise Summer as she finished up at school. Marissa looked her up and found out where she was living now. She drove to her apartment. It was in a really nice location, not as nice as Newport though. She imagined how designer and fabulous her apartment would look inside. Summer had always had a thing for fashion.
Marissa's arrived at the door of Room 214 and knocked gently on the door, feeling almost nervous. She heard someone on the other side of the door yelling "GO GET YOUR CLOTHES ON!" Marissa almost turned around to leave, hoping she wasn't interrupting anything, but before she could leave and walk down the hall she heard the door open and saw a friendly face look her way down the hall.
"COOP!!!" Summer yelled down the hall.
"Summer...Hey! I guess...umm...Surprise!" she said.
"Oh my God Coop where have you been, we've all tried getting contact with you...Seth, Ryan, me and even Kirsten and Sandy." she said giving her a huge hug. Marissa hugged her back. She felt like she was back at home.
"Come in!" she shouted getting a little too excited, stretching her arm and backing out of the way to allow Marissa to come in.
"Oh...well...I thought I heard someone else...company...so I'll come back later" Marissa said.
"Ha! No, there's no company...here come inside you can meet my so called "company". Summer said with a laugh.
"Emily!" Summer yelled down the hall...then eventually having to physically go down the hall to get her herself.
Marissa gazed around her apartment. Yup, she sure had spent a lot of time planning this, but of course not doing any of the work, she thought. Her place was gorgeous. A full one floor apartment, with big halls and large rooms.
Summer came back down the hall. "She's a little shy...plus she has no clothes on...and you know, so she's getting dressed"
"Oh okay...this Emily...is she...??"
"See Coop! If you had called any of us back, I could have filled you in on so much stuff! Emily is my daughter. Well...mine and Cohen's daughter." she said with a grin on her face, at the same time she picked up toys that were scattered around the living room.
"Daughter?" Marissa said. "Wow Summer...you've really...really...been successful. And your married...to Seth! I mean that's great!" Marissa said, feeling a little bit like an outsider, considering all she had was a boyfriend that she didn't love, and was still working on graduating.
"Yeah...Well I guess things just kinda went by fast. My dad got me this great job working for this new fashion thing...I haven't exactly started...but Seth is working for his mom, you would figure." she said letting out a laugh.
"Mommy!" Emily cried out from her bedroom.
"Emily, come here, meet your Aunty Marissa" She said giving a smirk towards Marissa.
A little mousy brown haired girl came running down the hall. When Marissa first looked at her she could have sworn it was Summer.
"Hello Marissa" Emily said. Emily had her father's personality.
"Hi Emily" she said. "Well, I'm sorry but I've got to get going. I need to find a hotel to stay at, and...umm...yah just stuff you know" Marissa said heading towards the door.
"Okay Coop...but PROMISE you will call me later? We need to catch up." she said handing Marissa her cell and home phone number. "Seth really wants to see you" she said.
"Don't worry I will for sure call. Bye Emily" Marissa said and gave a smile to the two identical mother and daughter. She closed the door behind her and walked down the hall to the elevator. She starred at her feet as she walked. Was she missing out on everything? she thought. Gosh the two love birds are married, have a kid, and are living in a beautiful apartment.
"Oh Excuse me" a voice said bumping into Marissa. The man was sorting through his bag while walking, not paying attention.
"That's alright" she said walking down further. That voice, she thought. She turned her head back to see who it was. Ryan.
