30 November

Dear Diary,

You won't believe what happened today. The six of us plus Tommy were having dinner in 'our' apartment when the phone rang. Renee answered and visibly paled when the person on the other side identified herself. Her eyes fixed on Kim while she told the person on the other side if she was in. After putting her hand over the mouthpiece of the receiver she whispered to Kim it was her mom and she wanted to talk to her. Kim turned her eyes on Tommy as if asking him what to do and after a reassuring smile she took the receiver from Renee. For an hour the two talked. At some point Kim had started shaking and tears started to roll down her cheeks, so Tommy had sat down on the couch and pulled her onto his lap, holding her securely in his arms. Renee, Karone and Zhane left the room to clean the dishes to give Kim some privacy and me and Andros wanted to go to our room (god, I love saying/writing those words), but Kim signed for us to stay, so we sat down on the other couch, listening to what Kim was saying. After the call ended Kim told me Jeff had called her after talking to me, explaining what had happened with Trevor and everything. She made her excuses for forcing Kim into a relationship with him and hoped she could be forgiven. Of course Kim forgave her, but only on one condition. She would have to stay out of her relationship with Tommy. Kim said her mom had been shocked to hear her and Tommy were back together, but was happy for the two. Seeing Kim so happy that she made up with her mother at last made me miss my own mom, even though I've never really met her. What would she think about her baby girl being pregnant? Would she look forward to being a grandmother or would she have nothing to do with me anymore? I hope that wherever her spirit is now, she's proud of what I've become and how I handled things and I hope she will watch over my children the same way dad always told me she was watching over me. Maybe she's the guardian angel that brought Andros back to me. I guess I'll never know.

Love,

Ashley
