This Can't Be Happening

Kimberly, Jason and the little girl whose name is Cadence had all went back to Kim's apartment. Kim had a lot on her mind after seeing Katherine. They have been back in Angel Grove for nearly two weeks and surprisingly this was the first time she saw anyone. When was she going to get the courage to just go and show her self to everyone? Espeically to Tommy. She was scared that's why. What would they all think of her? No one but Jason and Trini knew about Candence. Jason was right though. Sooner or later they'll know she's back in town. She can't avoid them forever. She already barely avoided Kathering and Tanya. She hoped so much that they didn't recognize her.

" Jason I think it's time for me to talk to them." Kimberly said as she came out of the shower. " You're right I can't avoid them forever. Kat probably recognized me who knows. I need to brave up and just talk to them." Kimberly decided she would go after getting dressed. She knew that they would all be at the juice bar because well they always were. " I'm going to go alone if you don't mind. If you would watch Cadence for me I would be very grateful." Jason nodded and let Kimberly get finshed getting ready. Kimberly was so nervous. What was she going to tell them? She had no idea. All she knew is that she was going to walk in there and probably freeze up or maybe even turn around.

"See you later Jason. Take good care of my little brat for me ok." Kim said as she kissed her daughter goodbye. The little girl looked up at hre mommy like she didn't want her to leave. " It's ok Honey Mommy will be right back. Stay here with Uncle Jason ok?" The little girl agreed and went back to Jason. " ok wish me luck"

"Luck Kim. I hope everything goes ok." Said Jason really hoping for Kim's sake.

Juice Bar

Tommy was lifting weights while Rocky was spotting him. Katherine, Adam and Tanya were sitting at a table drinking smoothies. Kathering still was thinking about what she saw. Tanya thinking about the same thing. Adam was sitting there wondering why they both looked so serious. They just sat there saying nothing and Adam got bored. He got up and went over to watch Rocky and Tommy. They seemed more interesting. While he was walking to them he looked over at the entrance door. He saw someone who he knew but it didn't quite look like her at first. The petite little brunette looked completely different. As though she has been through hell and back. Her clothes were all too big and her hair was really long. She didn't look like the preppy girl she used to be. He had noticed she was looking back at him and he smiled. He walked toward her instead. Kimberly wasn't really expecting such a nice welcome from anyone but she took it. Adam led her away from everyone else and they both sat in a corner. They both just kind of looked at eachother with out saying anything for awhile. Both taking eachother in for a minute. Kim not really knowing what to say and Adam being a little shocked at her sudden appearance after three years.

"Hey Adam..." Kim said trying to break the silence. Kim didn't really expect anyone to approach her when she arrived. Adam was the last one to talk to her and now he's the first to talk to her. "How have you been? " Was all she could think to say.

"I'm fine Kim how about you??" Adam said looking a little worried about this little brunette. "I'm sorry to say but you don't look so great."

Kim nodded in a agreement knowing fully what he was talking about. She hasn't really been taking care of appearance as much as she used to. "Well to tell the truth I'm not doing so great either...Adam thats why..." And as she was about to finish what she was saying she was interrupted by the sudden appearance of a long haired man. Kimberly froze in her chair and just stared at him as he stared back. Tommy was just making his way over to talk to Adam and he noticed him sitting with a girl. Well he couldn't see her face so he was going to go over and make some smart remark. He was shocked to see his old lover sitting there. Neither one of them would say anything. Tommy just looked at her and walked away. Kim thought about getting up and going after him but she saw Katherine walking towards him and changed her mind.

"What happened Tommy?" Asked Kat and all Tommy did was look back. Kat looked and saw her. "Oh what's she doing here?" Kat said acting as though she hadn't seen her earlier.

"I don't know but I don't really care right now." Tommy said as all his emotions went crazy. He did not expect to see Kimberly ever again. He did want to know why she was back but he didn't know what he would do if he talked to her. He felt like yelling at her but hugging her at the same time. He has missed her but she hasn't called or anything since that letter. "Let's just go Kat ok." Tommy and Kat were starting to leave. Kimberly saw this through her teary eyes.

"Stop Tommy!" Kimberly surprised herself. She didn't really mean to call out to him but she really needs to talk to him. Tommy and Kat both turned and looked at her in surprise. "Please come back. I need to talk to you." Kimberly begged as more tears came to her eyes. Tommy looked at her not sure if he should. He looked to Kat for help and she gave him a look that he better not. "I want to explain why I've been gone so long." Tommy stopped again and looked at Kim. He has always wanted this explanation and now he could get the chance.

"Sorry Kat but I need to hear this." Tommy told Kat and kissed her. Kat looked at him with understanding and let him go back to Kim. On the inside she was crushed and knew that this might be the end of them. She prayed it wouldn't be.

"Thank you Tommy for deciding to listen. Even though you probably hate me right now." Kimberly said still trying to fight back all her tears. She looked at Tommy who looked as handsome as ever. This just made her want to cry even more. Seeing him kiss Kat hurt a lot.

"Yeah whatever I just want to hear this explanation I've been long waiting to hear." Tommy said in a stern serious voice. With all his heart he still loved this girl but just thinking about how she chose to end the relationship broke his heart to terribly for him to forget about it. "Let's go talk over here." Tommy led them outside and to a bench where they could sit. It was a nice day outside anyway and it was too loud inside to talk about something so serious.

"Well Kimberly Hart Let's begin this explanation of yours." Tommy said and he would never guess whats been going on for the last three years.
