I'm sorry for the short chapter, but if I get more reviews (lol) I
will eventually go back to longer chapters. Oh, and I remember somebody
asking me how Sean felt when Ellie killed herself. You'll find out soon.
"Hey, Mom! Guess what?" I said.
"You got the apartment?" she asked.
"Yes! I did," I said. "It's so awesome, Mom."
"Honey, I'm so happy for you!" she said.
"Thanks," I said.
"so that's the last box?" Sean asked me.
"Yeah it is. Thank you so much for helping me," I said.
"Hey, anytime," he put his arms around me.
I smiled. "Want to stay for dinner?" I asked.
"Who can say no to food?"
Manny sat on the couch drinking a cup of coffee. She looked like a zombie. She was still upset over losing the baby.
"Craig," she said calmly. "You need help. I'm sorry for saying that, but you do."
"I don't need help. I can do it myself," he said.
"If you don't get help, I will leave you."
"I DON'T NEED HELP! Why would I need help?" he bellowed.
"Because you made me lose our baby!" She screamed back at him. "How could you? How could you do this to me and still claim you love me?" she was crying now.
"Manny, I'm sorry," he held her. "I'll call right now."
He picked up the phone.
I sat on the couch, reading a book. The kids had gone to bed, happy to have their own rooms again, and I wasn't tired yet. I heard a knock the door. I looked at my watch, who would be here at midnight? I sighed and opened the door. Nobody was there. I locked the door and sat back down. Then I heard knocking at the window. "Emma, it's just your imagination," I repeated over and over.
The phone rang and it made me jump. "Hello?" I said, picking it up. Nobody was there. I was starting to get scared so I turned on the living room light. That's when I saw a figure run in front of the window.
I called the police.
"Ma'am, we've searched your grounds twice and we've found nothing," the cop said.
"But I saw something. It knocked on the door, then the window and then the phone rang. When I turned on the light there was something out there!"
he picked the bottle of champagne up. "How much of this did you have?"
"Two glasses."
"That's why the whole bottle is gone?" he asked.
"I had a guest over earlier, if it's any of your business, which it isn't!"
"There's nothing here."
Paige was fed up. She was leaving. But the clouds endangered her chance. She heard someone at her door, and wondered who would be there so late. She answered it.
"Jason! Hi, honey, how are you?" she asked her husband, throwing her arms around him.
"I'm good. I was just wondering why you left."
"I had some business to take care of but its over know, thank God! I'm so happy to see you."
"We'll leave tomorrow morning. I'm tired."
"You read my mind."
"Hey, Mom! Guess what?" I said.
"You got the apartment?" she asked.
"Yes! I did," I said. "It's so awesome, Mom."
