Different
Paths Part 12:
Goodbye
to you
-
Prue
still was upstairs, waiting for Andy to pick her. The door opened and
she looked up, expecting to see her husband, instead Julia came
in
"Sorry to disappoint you..."
Julia said smiling
"You
are not."
Julia smiled and pecked her
"You have two
amazing daughters, you know?"
Prue smiled a little more
"I
just wished you were living closer ... I'll need your help in this
here"
"Yeah... just wait till you handled them for a while...
they seem to be pretty active... both"
Prue let out a laugh
"Why thank you"
"I'm up here to say bye"
"No...
Please... stay some more... I'm helpless in this... I... don't
know how to handle all of this"
Julia smiled
"You'll
have to learn to..."
"You could teach me..."
"Prue...
there's still the telephone... and... There's also Andy how can
get us anytime... I mean... I really need to get used to that orbing"
she said letting a laugh out
"Please stay some more"
"We
can't..."
"Then move back to San Francisco..."
Julia
smiled
"We can't"
"I don't know where to start all
of this, Julia"
"I know you don't know it... but you'll
find your way. Just keep two things in mind... first and most
important of all: Andy loves you and you love him. And second... no
matter what they do... or what they say... they don't know it
better... so don't be mad at them too long. Instead forget about it
and give them a gentle hug and everything will be okay again. Never
forget those two, okay?"
Prue nodded
"I'd love to...
sit now up and hug you... but... I guess the pain will eat me up
then"
Prue said as tears came to Prue's eyes. Julia smiled a
little and leaned down hugging Prue
"Heeey... shshshsh... it's
alright... just a call or an orb or and e-mail away..."
she
said stroking Prue's hair.
"I love you Julia..."
"I
love you, too"
she told Prue and pecked her cheek, just as the
door cracked open again and Richard and Andy entered. Julia pulled
away and looked up at them... then back down at Prue... pushing her
tears aside, and then getting up. Richard smiled a little and went
over to the bed, hugging Prue as well
"Congratulations, honey"
"Thank you Richard"
she said smiling slightly. The
sadness over them leaving already was too big
"Don't you two
want to stay at least till dad was here as well..."
"Prue..."
Julia said
"I know... you can't"
Prue said smiling
bravely. Richard got up as well
"Bye"
Prue said before
Andy orbed out with them, bringing them back home.
