Amy looked at her father with fear in her eyes. She didn't want to lose
another boyfriend, even if she didn't love Tommy like loved Colin.
Amy: "Dad, just tell me. I can handle this."
Dr. Abbott:" Well, as you know, Tommy had a GHB overdose. Luckily, things
like that are not deadly, but there still serious. Tommy is going to be
fine physically once he gets the drugs out of his system, but the doctors
have to report this incident."
Amy:" Report what, Dad what are you talking about." Amy saw her Dad's face
and knew that something was wrong.
Dr. Abbott:" Well Amy, there is no easy way to put this, but since Tommy
broke the law by doing an illegal drug, he is going have to attend rehab.
Since Tommy has had drug problems in his past, he can't just go to a few
meetings in Denver on the weekends. Basically, what I'm trying to say Amy
is that Tommy have to move to Los Angles and attend a rehab center until
the doctors they're feel he is ready to be released.
Amy was glad that he was ok, but shocked that he was being shipped away.
Yet, she wasn't sad. I think this a sign, Amy thought, that things with
Tommy need to end. And, maybe, just maybe, leaving Tommy is the first step
to turning my life around.
Amy: "So, can I go see him Dad, I think we need to talk,"
Dr. Abbott:" Sure Amy, I'll walk you to his room"
Amy:" Oh and Dad, thanks for this, I mean considering what's been going on
lately; you didn't have to come through for me."
Dr. Abbott smiled at his daughter, he finally saw a bit of the old Amy he
knew and loved come out. "Amy, no matter what problems were having, I'm
your father and will always be here for you. Never be afraid to ask for
help."
With that, the pair smiled at each other and walked down the hall to go find Tommy's room. Finally, after half a year of turmoil between them, things were beginning to go back to normal. Although their relationship could never be the same, Dr. Abbott had finally learned to accept the new person his daughter had turned into and Amy realized that her Dad always had her best interest at heart. In fact, they were so busy with their little reunion; they completely forgot to wake Ephram, who was still sleeping on the bench. Suddenly, Ephram awoke as he felt his cell phone vibrate in his pocket. On instinct, he picked it up, not stopping to read the caller id first.
Ephram:" Hello" Madison:" Don't hello me Mr. You were supposed to meet me here two hours ago, where are you?" Ephram snapped into the real world, look at his watch and realized it was 1:30. Crap, he thought, I am two hours late, as if I wasn't in a enough trouble enough. He could sense how mad Madison was by her voice. " Um Madison, look I'm really sorry..." Madison interrupted him in her agitated voice," Sorry, well sorry isn't good enough. Ephram, things have been so crazy between us lately, are whole relationship had been all drama. We really need to sit down and talk about this, like mature adults. I don't think you understand that, you can't keep ignoring are problems, its time to grow up." If Madison weren't so busy being mad, she would have realized that she just said the one thing that would be guarantied to set Ephram off: blaming their problems on his age. Ephram was sick of being treated like a little kid and was finally ready to let Madison have it," Ya know what Madison. Your right, are whole relationship is a giant problem. Whenever I'm with you, I feel like you think of me as a stupid little kid your supposed to baby-sit. Well news flash, I'm not and I don't think we can continue this relationship unless you come to terms with it and admit that you have a 16 year-old boyfriend." Madison, shocked at Ephram's out burst shouted," Well fine, You want to end this, than fine. Good bye Ephram." With that, she slammed the phone down and burst into tears, Ephram, who really didn't mean to let out that outburst, sighed knowing that things were beyond repair. Knowing that he couldn't end things in such bad shape, he left to go home and talk to Madison face to face. He quickly scribbled a note telling Amy he had to leave and left it with the nurse at the front desk. He than set off to go figure out what to do about Madison and whether or not he really wanted to end the relationship he had worked so hard to have.
