The phone rings in Luke and Lorelai's house. Luke is cooking lunch while Lorelai runs to the phone and answers it. "Hello?". She says.
"Hi Lorelai. It's mom". Says Emily. She tries to keep calm but deep down inside she wants to bawl her eyes out.
"Oh, hi mom. How are you?". Lorelai asks.
"Not so good". She says shakily.
"Mom? What's wrong? Are you okay?". Lorelai asks as she's feeling worried.
"I'm...I'm in the middle of singing these divorce papers. Lorelai!". She cried out.
"Mom! I'll be right over okay? Don't move. And leave the door open for me". Says Lorelai quickly.
"O-okay". Says Emily.
They both hang up and Lorelai runs to put on her shoes and she grabs her purse. "Honey I'm gonna go see my mom". Says Lorelai.
"Okay babe". Says Luke.
Lorelai runs out the door and droves to her moms house. The traffic wasn't bad but Lorelai gave herself time to what she wanted to says and how she's going to comfort her own mom.
She quickly turns off the car after parking her car on the side walk. She jogs to the door and opens it. "Mom? Mom?". Lorelai says loudly.
"In here!". Emily cries out again.
"Mommy!". Cried Lorelai.
Lorelai wrapped her arms around her mom and held her tight. "I'm here mom. I'm here. I have you. You're safe". Says Lorelai. She did her best not to cry herself. But she had to be strong for her mom. As she had to be all those other times.
They both sat down and gave themselves time to clean themselves up. "Oh Lorelai. Where did I go wrong?". Emily asks.
"What do you mean?". Lorelai asks.
"I thought your father and I would spend our whole lives together. I guess what my uncle told me was true. Marriage; overrated, outdated, and an enigma. As much your father and I fought, I take blame in this". Cries Emily.
"Mom. It's okay". Lorelai says softly.
"No it's not! Your father wanted you to stay in the house when you get pregnant. But I got you kicked out. I controlled you, I tried to control him, I manipulated you, I waa pushy, aggressive, and I'm so sorry! I'm SO SORRY Lorelai! Forgive me! Please!". Emily crowd even more thinking and thinking even more about how bad she's been. How judgemental she's been. "I should have let you shined on your own. Let you think for myself. Oh, Lorelai. I'm-" Emily coughed a couple times.
Lorelai just held her moms hand and looked at her sympathetically. "It's okay mom. Really. I know you wanted what was best for me. I forgive you mom. And I'm sure dad will too". Said Lorelai.
Emily sniffles and wiped her eyes. "What do I do? What do I say?". Asks Emily.
"Talk to him without fighting. Tell him how you feel. Communicate". Says Lorelai.
Emily nodded quickly. "Okay". She says.
*Next day*
"Emily". Richard says as he sits down in his old house.
"Hi Richard". Says Emily as she smiles at him.
"We really need to talk". He says in a light tone.
"We do. And I just wanna apologize for all the horrible things I've said to you over the years. I really am so very sorry. I hope you can forgive me someday". Emily says as she feels the tears in her eyes again.
Richard nodded. "I forgive you, Emily. And-"
"There is something else I need to tell you, Richard. Richard. I...I'm pregnant".
Richard's eyes grew wide. He started to smile. "You mean...We're having a baby?!". He beamed.
Emily shook her head. "It's not yours. It's...when we fought and you left the house I called Barry. Your best friend from work. We drank wine. We talked. And then-"
Richard got up from the table. He put on his coat jacket and said, "Good to know you signed those divorce paper.s I signed mine as well. I'm sorry. But I must go". And with that he left his now ex wife crying at the kitchen table.
