Harmony felt a bit dazed, as she stretched her arms while sitting up in her bed. She began to wonder if the adventure she just had was a dream. However, the adventure seemed so real to her, as if it was more than just a dream. Either way, though, the conversion she just had with Melody in that other world made her ponder over how important life really was. She realized she should never have wished her life away.
'Harmony?' called out a familiar voice. 'Harmony, are you in here? Can we come in?'
'Is that you, Marty?' replied Harmony. 'Yeah, sure, I guess you can come in here.'
Marty Jr then walked into Harmony's bedroom, with Melody. Harmony suddenly felt a little nervous, as she was worried that she might be yelled at again. She decided to not worry about it too much, though. She did kind of go behind their back, after all.
'Listen, Harmony,' Marty Jr said, gently, 'I would like to apologize for yelling at you a little earlier today. You did the right thing. The Greens did need the money more so than we did, after all. Also, you will not believe who just called a couple hours ago.'
'Oh, who was it, Marty?' Harmony asked, a bit excitedly. 'Was it Holly Green? Did they end up getting the house after all? I was so worried when the bad news came.'
'Yeah, we know all about that, Harmony,' Marty Jr said, softly. 'At any rate, it was Emerald Green who called our home. Believe it or not, but Emerald is related to Holly and her family. She was going to come to our home, soon. She is so grateful for the good deed that you've done. Your heart was most definitely in the right place.'
'Oh, I don't believe this!' Harmony said, stunned. 'I have wanted to meet Emerald for the longest time. I never even realized that this family was related to her. This has to be the best news I've heard of. I suppose we should start heading to your house.'
'Yeah, let's go,' Marty Jr urged. 'I'm glad you're feeling much better now. We were so concerned about you. We should have never yelled at you, though. That was wrong.'
'Yeah, I'm sorry, too,' Melody said, blushing. 'I know I was being a bit selfish before.'
'Well, that's all right,' Harmony said, smiling. 'I guess I should've talked to you guys first. At any rate, though, it appears that everything will work out. So that's good.'
oooooooooo
As soon as the trio arrived at the McFly's home, Harmony saw a Porsche parked in the driveway. Harmony was feeling a bit nervous, as she walked into the home. As soon as she stepped into the door, Marlene and a young blonde women can running up to them. Harmony then realized that the woman must be none other than Emerald Green herself. She was really amazed by how much Emerald resembled herself.
'So you must be the great Harmony Brown, eh?' Emerald gushed, as she threw her arms around Harmony. 'I am pleased by how generous you've been to my relatives. We decided that you guys should have your money back, and my husband and I will pitch in for them. So how is your family doing? What's going on with your grandpa?'
'Well, Grandpa is still working on his inventions,' Harmony said, beaming. 'I really am amazed by how smart he is. It's a shame that some people in this town still regard him as a nutcase. Still, I'm sure he's more appreciated now, than he used to be.'
'I would like to get to know him,' Emerald said, smiling widely. Then, turning to Marty Jr, she added, 'You must be Marty McFly Jr! I must say, you really are the splitting image of your father. I heard you play guitar, too? Do you play in a band?'
'I most certainly do,' Marty Jr said, smiling. 'There's four of us in the band. We call ourselves Machinehead. Our name was inspired by that classic LP by Deep Purple.'
'Well, I wish you guys the best of luck,' Emerald said, smiling. 'It's nice meeting you.'
'Oh, yeah, Harmony,' Marlene said, blushing. 'I would like to apologize for yelling at you earlier. I guess I've been pretty nasty to you a little earlier. I now realize how selfish I was being.' Then, turning to Emerald, she added, 'Anyway, I have a bunch of old items I don't need anymore. You can take these to the family if you'd like.'
'Oh, thank you so much, Marlene!' gushed Emerald. Then, turning to Harmony and Marty Jr, she added, 'Yeah, Marlene told me all about what happened between you guys earlier today. She was so worried that I would think badly of her. I told her that she didn't have to worry about it, and that none of us are perfect. Anyway, it's a pleasure to meet you all. I was always such a big fan of your father, you know.'
Just then, a familiar computerized voice chirped out, 'Welcome home, Marty. Lord of the manor. King of the castle.'
'Hey, kids!' called out Marty Sr. 'Your mom and I are home! So who's our visitor?'
'Oh, it's a pleasure to see you again, Marty!' Emerald gushed, as she threw her arms around Marty Sr. 'I decided to pay you guys a surprise visit, after hearing about the wonderful act of generosity of Harmony. It's a pleasure to see you, too, Jennifer!'
'Oh, it was so wonderful of you to come for a visit!' Marty Sr gushed. 'I have been wanting to contact you for awhile, but I wasn't sure where you lived. My children are big fans of yours, as well. It's nice that my children have good taste in music, too.'
'Well, if you guys don't mind,' Emerald said, smiling, 'I was wondering if we could spend Christmas with you guys. My husband should be here soon, too. I'm pregnant with our first baby. If it turns out to be a girl, guess what we plan to name her!'
'Doris?' Marty asked, laughing. 'If it turns out to be a boy, you'll name him Norman?'
'Nope on both accounts,' Emerald said, chuckling. 'If it turns out that our baby is a boy, we plan to name him Martin - and if it's a girl, we plan to name her Harmony.'
'Aw, that sounds so wonderful!' Harmony gushed. 'I think Harmony Green does have a nice ring to it. It's so amazing that both of our last names is a colour, isn't it?'
'Oh, yeah,' exclaimed Emerald, smiling. 'I guess I didn't even think of that. I have some more big news for you. The staff at People magazine want to interview me about the situation with my relatives. I plan to put in a really good word for you.'
'Oh, thank you so much, Emerald!' gushed Harmony. 'This is so exciting for me.'
'Well, you certainly deserve it,' Emerald said, smiling. Just then the doorbell rang.
'I'll get it,' called out Jennifer, as she headed towards the front door. 'Oh, hello there, Doc! It's so nice of you to come. Of course, you and Clara are always more than welcome to spend Christmas with us. I want you to meet Emerald Green.'
'Oh, hello, Dr. Brown!' called out Emerald. 'It's so nice to finally meet you. You ought to be proud of your granddaughter. What she did for my relatives was so generous.'
'Yeah, Marty Jr told me all about it,' Doc said, smiling. Then, turning to Harmony, he added, 'I am so proud of you, sweetheart! So are such a wonderful granddaughter.'
'Hey, what about me?' protested Melody. 'Aren't I a wonderful granddaughter, too?'
'You most certainly are,' Doc replied. 'You all are so wonderful! It's amazing to think that, at one time, I thought I would never have a family. Now I am as happy as I could ever hope to be. Maybe I'll even be able to live to see my great-grandchildren.'
'Oh, I'm pretty sure you will,' gushed Harmony, as she reached out to hug Doc.
'So Emerald,' Marty Jr asked, 'I was wondering. Have you ever met Michael J Fox?'
'Oh, I most certainly have,' Emerald said, smiling. 'He's such a wonderful fellow.'
'I'm pretty sure he is,' replied Harmony. 'It appears that a cure for Parkinson's disease is right around the corner. Speaking of which, maybe I would donate the 100,000 dollars to the Michael J Fox Parkinson's Research Foundation, instead.' Then, turning to her sister and friends, she added, 'Is this going to be all right with you guys?'
'Sure, Harmony, that sounds great!' gushed Marlene. 'After all, Parkinson's disease is so debilitating - and I'm sure they would really appreciate a cure to be found.'
'It's fine with me, too,' added Marty Jr. 'Not just for Michael J Fox, but for all of the victims who have to deal with that terrible disease - along with their families, you know.'
'Count me in, too,' chimed in Melody. 'The pool can always wait, but the victims of Parkinson's disease have waited long enough already. They could use the money.'
'I'm glad we're all in agreement, then.' Harmony said, smiling. 'It looks like we're going to have a very wonderful Christmas this year. At least one thing is certain. This sure will be a Christmas to remember. This is the most wonderful time of year!'
Harmony then glanced around at everyone in the room, as she smiled. What started out being what could have been a terrible day had turned out to be the best day of her life. She was pleased to learn that everything would turn out all right in the end.
