Pt. 2 Truth found
"Emma wake up, please, Em don't scare me." Tears rolled down Spike's cheeks uncontrollably as Archie put his arms around her. "Don't worry, the paramedics are coming, and she's still breathing." Spike buried her head in his chest and he hugged her tightly. The alarm grew closer and Spike wiped her eyes. She went to the door and in a rush, Emma was out of the house.
What seemed like hours passed as the clock ticked silently in the waiting room. Spike had stopped crying but she was still very tense, holding on to baby Jack tightly. The light finally turned on and the doctor came out of the room with an expressionless face. "She's okay." And that's all they needed to hear. Spike again bursted into tears and hugged Jack tightly, smiling through her tears and admiring Jack as he slept. Archie put his arm around her once more and kissed her forehead and that was the end of all the happiness. A very pale and unconscious Emma was strolled out of the emergency room and right then and there, her family's hearts broke.
"Where's Em? She never misses school." Craig paused and looked at her a bit shocked. "Manny, I don't wanna break it to you hard but, she's in the hospital" Manny looked back at Craig in sheer disbelief. "Tell me you're kidding. Please tell me you're kidding." Manny, still in shock, looked down. Craig put his arm around her and sighed, "Look, if you wanna cry…." Manny looked at him, still in doubt. "Look, your gonna have to face your problems so if you wanna cry-". "I'm okay. Just why? Why is she in the hospital?" Craig hesitated a moment and then, he let it out. "She took an overdose." Manny's look was calm and reserved and Craig looked at her, worried, and without warning, her tears fell.
