As Amy neared the entrance of Tommy's room, she squeezed her dad's hand and said" Dad, can I see him alone." Amy knew that although it was going to be hard, Amy had to do this herself. "Sure Amy, I'll wait for you outside and take you back to Edna's when were done." "Actually Dad, I thought that if it was ok with you, I could come back with you tonight to the house and eat dinner with you guys, ya know, as a family." Amy looked at her father with hopeful eyes, praying that he would let her come home and forgive her for leaving him. Dr. Abbott looked at his daughter and tears filled his eyes." Of course Amy, I'm just glad you want to home, but you do know that things won't be the same as they were." Amy:" I wouldn't have it any other way, Dad." With that, Dr. Abbott went to sit down as Amy entered Tommy's room.

As Amy walked in, she saw Tommy stare at her with shock in his eyes and a big grin, he couldn't believe that after how bad he had messed up, Amy was still there for him. Tommy;" Hey gorgeous, how are you?" "Tommy," Amy said with a sigh," we need to talk...now." Tommy: "Amy, I know you're really mad, and I admit that I screwed up. But it was just one night Ames, and I don't want to lose you, lose what we have because of it."

Amy: "Tommy, we don't just need to talk about last night. Our whole relationship has been based on lies and you promised to change, but look where you are. Your still the same person, who causes all of problems."

Tears started to form in Tommy's eyes," Amy I love you and I know that you love me too. We have something special, something unique. I swear to you that if you stick by my, I'll go clean, I'll do anything Amy, just don't leave me again." Tommy reached over and squeezed Amy's hand.

Stay strong, Amy told herself. He tried this same stunt before, you forgave him, and look where he ended up. You need to end this now, before it rips you apart anymore," Tommy, I can't deny that you are a very sweet and caring guy, but I'm sorry, I don't love you. This experience has made my realize that the person I've become just isn't me. And in order to find out who I truly am, I need to do this alone."

Tommy:" So you just want to leave me alone in rehab. Amy, I don't think I can get through this myself. You promised to be there for me Amy, you can't desert me now. Don't you have a heart?" Tommy was starting to raise his voice.

This was becoming too much for Amy so she walked to the door, turned around and replied," Tommy, I do have a heart, it just doesn't belong to you. And if you loved me like you say you do, you would let me go. Good bye Tommy, good luck in Rehab."

Amy slammed the door, leaned against the wall and started to cry again. She knew that leaving Tommy was necessary, but she didn't realize how horrible it would make her feel. Suck it up Amy, she told herself. You screwed up big and now that you finally got to say goodbye to Colin, you have to get on with your life, on your own. Amy wiped her own tears, and walked over to her father, who she was so glad to finally her Dad in her life again. The pair walked to the car and drove back to the Abbott house. Although things wouldn't be as relaxed and normal as they use to be, Amy had to try to get her family to forgive her, she just had to.

Meanwhile, Ephram was pulling into his driveway and spotted his little sister, Delia, pointing at him through the window.
