Later on that evening Kim pulls up to the school and there stands Emma with a few of her friends. Kim puts down the window.
Kim: Hey kid!(Emma looks at her)get in(Emma waves at her friends and climbs in the backseat)Your sister is with Joanie right?
Emma:(simply)yeah(Kim frowns then smiles)daddy is gonna get her
Kim:(slowly)ok(sweetly)how was your day?(Emma starts closing the door)
Emma: fine(slams the door shut. Kim looks at her and Emma stares at her)Yes?
Kim: Emily are you ok?(Emma puts on her seat belt and nods)ok(turns from her and starts driving. Emma says nothing and looks outside)mm(looks at her through the mirror)Emma what's wrong?
Emma: Nothing(glares)Kimberly(Kim now pulls the car over and looks at her)
Kim: excuse me(turns to her)who do you think you are talking to like that?(dangerously low)I am your mother and you better remember that or I swear I will(stops when she sees tears coming down her face)Emily Hart Davis(turns off her car)(softly)what is the matter? Talk to me baby!
Emma: Dr. Tommy beat up daddy(Kim looks shocked and gawks a little)and you left daddy for him(angrily) You cheated on daddy.
Kim:(outraged)NO! Never Emily(unbuckles the seat belt and climbs in the back)who(sits beside her)told you that? Mommy never ever cheated on your dad especially not with Dr. Tommy. You know Tommy and I just started talking again after years (rubs her face)of not talking nor seeing each other(sighs)And the reason why Dr. Tommy and I stopped talking and being friends is because Dr. Tommy did fight your father and hurt him pretty bad(sighs)and I chose your father after that?
Emma: why?(Kim pauses for a moment but sighs)
Kim: because your dad and I were engaged and Tommy had a girlfriend. We were friends and he hurt my feelings when he hurt your dad(Emma nods)I didn't want to be friends with him after that. So I didn't and just decided to have a life with your father(thinking) what a huge mistake I made?(rolls her eyes)
Emma: Really?
Kim: mm-hmm(smiles)scouts honor my baby(kisses her)I never cheated on daddy….I loved him more then anything at that time. I could never do that(she nods)baby what made you feel that way?
Emma: I asked daddy last night on the phone about why you guys divorced?(pauses)I know I wasn't supposed to call him until you got home but...
Kim: Emma(nods her head no)(softly)it's ok...go on!
Emma: and he stated that...that was the reason
Kim: I'm going to have a talk with your daddy….for making my baby so upset(holds her close)I'm sorry that we had to divorce Emma(silence hits them and Kim kisses her head)
Emma: that's ok mommy! I'm happy you did(Kim smiles a little)all you two did was argue and it made us sad
Kim: I know(softly)and I'm sorry about that
Emma: momma I'm sorry for calling you Kimberly! I promise to never to it again!
Kim: you better(laughs)never ever do it again(softly)and its ok
Emma: momma I'm happy you and Dr. Tommy became friends and are together(smiles)I like you and Dr. Tommy together. I love Dr. Tommy(Kim smiles bigger)
Kim: good!(kisses her head)I love him too(rubs her head)and I love you
Emma: love you momma(holds her back making Kim smile harder)
Kim: sweet girl(thinking)I'm going to kill Davis(glares a little)
20minutes later Kimberly is on the phone and pumping gas. She is about 20feet away from the gas tank. She is looking at her car making sure she is not being over heard.
Tommy's voice:(angrily)he said what to her?
Kim: I know(mumbles) I'm going to murder him
Tommy's voice: Kim he is trying to turn your kids against me
Kim:(sighs)yeah I have noticed
Tommy's voice: What's his deal?
Kim: What do you think?(turns away from the car)After years of not even holding a conversation with you….you walked back into my life with little to no effort and swept me off my broken feet! The broken feet that he left!
Tommy's Voice:(sarcastically)Didn't feel like little to no effort
Kim: your(laughs)right it wasn't(he chuckles and Kim turns to her car)but to him he blinked and you were back. Now he feels like you have me
Tommy Voice: and possibly his daughters(Kim thinks about it)But it doesn't give him the right to stir up trouble
Kim: Your right(sighs)I'll figure it out.
Tommy's voice: I think I should figure it out for you
Kim:(smirks)Tommy!(calmly)I don't need you to do that. This is my ex-husband and the girl's father. I'll deal with it.
Tommy's Voice: I think it should be dealt with man to man
Kim: no offense Tommy….but the last time you guys had a man to man, I was pulling you off of him; and you had a swollen fist(Tommy says nothing)yeah!
Tommy: I was a kid
Kim: Sorry Tommy doesn't make for a good case(she sees the door open)
Emma: momma the gas stopped
Kim:(calls)coming Em(she nods and closes the door)ok I have to go
Tommy's Voice: Kimberly!
Kim: I love you and I'll tell you how the conversation goes
Tommy Voice:(quickly)I love you too but I think I should be there Kimberly…this is my relationship too.
Kim:(annoyed)Tommy?
Tommy's voice:(playfully)and if we're going to be together for the rest of our lives(Kim smiles briefly)then me and Davis need to have a talk and come to an understanding when it comes to the relationship with his daughters and You!
Kim: Me?
Tommy's Voice: Yes you! It obvious he still cares for you deeply Kim. I mean how could he not? Your amazing (Kim rolls her eyes)and you leave that amazing effect on people. You did with me
Kim: that's sweet but I doubt it
Tommy's Voice: Kimberly I'm telling you(she sighs)even if he didn't treat you like he cared. He DID and he does(Kim twirls her hair)and we need to talk about that man to man
Kim:(sighs)look I'll bring it up to Davis and see what he says(Tommy pauses)Alright?(walks over to the pump and takes the gas out)
Tommy's Voice: it's going to happen eventually Kim
Kim:(annoyed)I said I will talk to him Tommy(grabs her receipt and Tommy says nothing)look I have to go get Amy! I'll talk to you later.
Tommy Voice: you sure will!
Kim:(flirty)maybe you can come by tonight?
Tommy's Voice:(sucks his teeth)I wish I could beautiful! I have Ranger duty. I gave the teens the night off(Kim nods a little)maybe you can come by.
Kim: I wish(sadly)but it's a school night(they pause)I guess I'll just see you later
Tommy Voice: Yeah(happily)and I can't wait for that day(Kim smiles now)I love you beautiful
Kim:(sadly)I love you too…ok bye
Tommy:(softly)bye(they hung up and Kim lets out a long sigh)
Kim:(sighs)time for us to have The Ranger talk! But one talk at a time. I have to deal with Davis first(goes to her drivers seat and climbs in)you ready bumble bee?(turns and sees Emma is a sleep)I guess so(starts the car and drives off)
Kim pulls up to a restaurant where Davis stands with his daughter in his arms as she sleep. Kim almost smiles but stops. Kim parks the car and gets out. Kim looks back at Emma who is knocked out and smiles. Davis walks in on the other side, opens the door and lays Amy inside. He looks at Emma who is not budging.
Henry: Long day?(looks at Kim who is emotionless)
Kim: Seems like(he reaches over and puts a seatbelt on Amy)Davis can we talk?
Henry: oh boy(kisses Amy)never a good thing coming from Kimberly Hart(reaches over and kisses Emma as Kim gives him a look)
Kim: I'm serious Donald
Henry: I know(gets out of the car and closes the door)you always are(they stare at each other)come on I only have five minutes.
Kim: That's all I need(gets out of the car, puts down the window a little bit and closes the door)lets talk over there(he nods and they head to the curve and a couple of feet away from the car)
Henry: What's up Kimberly?
Kim: you told Emily that we broke up with because of Tommy? And I cheated on you!
Henry: No(crosses his arms)
Kim: Yes! And that he beat you up…
Henry: He did!
Kim: But I never cheated on you with him
Henry: Really? so nothing happened in Hawaii?(Kim gawks)
Kim: Excuse me!(angrily)Of course nothing happened(he gives her a "Yeah right look")I waited for our divorce to finalize(harshly)if that is any of your business
Henry: Hey you're the one that wanted to talk Kimberly!
Kim: How dare you spread lies like that to our children. You hurt Emily and turned her against me with false accusations(he rolls his eyes at her)and things in the past. How could you do that?
Henry: and you are turning them against me with your new boy toy(Kim looks surprised)Dr. Tommy this! Dr. Tommy That! Dr. Tommy Dr. Tommy(girl voice)Blah Blah Blah
Kim: WOW!(laughs)Tommy was right(gives him a look)your jealous
Henry:(laughs)of WHAT?
Kim: Him! You think he is taking the girls from you(touches her head and rocks)I can't believe he was right!
Henry: see my point is being made….can't have a conversation without him being mentioned(Kim looks at him totally surprised)
Kim: Davis you are the one bringing him up(sighs)look I know its hard that I've moved on and have someone who makes me so happy but the girls...
Henry: I Have someone too!
Kim: and I am thrilled for you(he nods "sure")Davis honestly I am! Yes it hurt me when you cheated on me and started dating the girl during our separation….
Henry: Kimberly I didn't
Kim: oh I'm sorry….you decided to SLEEP with her even more during our separation!
Henry: I didn't!
Kim:(angrily)Would you please just be honest(he says nothing)(sighs)fine whatever!(looks away)
Henry:(harshly)Fine I did(she looks at him)are you happy? I cheated on you
Kim:(angrily)No I'm not happy Donald! None of this makes me HAPPY!
Henry: At least I didn't bring her around the girls until after the divorce. I found out that he was around MY girls two weeks before our divorce
Kim: are you kidding me Donald? He was apart of the wedding party of course he would be around them.(he throws up his hands)Just like Diana, Lisa and Leeane where around MY girls when ever they came to your job(he puts his hands on his hips)
Henry: So we're both guilty(Kim shakes her head amazed and laughs)
Kim: Donald I'm done with this!(goes turn away)Grow up!
Henry:(loudly)and I'm not Done! Kimberly(Kim turns back to him and she is completely red) I don't like the way that they are bonding with him.
Kim:(yells)Donald you are their father(he stares into her eyes)ok!(calmly)your daddy…NOT TOMMY! And he can never take your place. Why don't you understand that?
Davis: Tell that to the girls
Kim: Believe me Davis they know! Its your fault if they feel badly about you! Not his NOR mines. See what you started with Emma earlier?! You can't do those things….that's going to draw them away from you(he sighs)love is supposed to be multiplied Davis not divided. Your always going to be their dad
Davis: But not your husband(Kim freezes)and your protector or your confident
Kim: Donald what are you saying?
Henry: that I(softly)I screwed up(Kim touches her heart)and I shouldn't of let you go Kimberly(touches her shoulder)you're a good woman and a good mother and the best wife
Kim: Davis don't do this(pulls away and backs up)
Henry: I know I broke us!(Kim looks disgusted)
Kim: Donald...
Henry: let me finish(Kim closes her mouth)what I'm trying to say is I still love you(Kim a very long sighs)
Kim: I love you too(he smiles)BUT NOT like you think! you're the father of my children but I do NOT love you romantically!(he frowns)I love Tommy! You know other than the love we had to make our children(smiles for a second thinking about her kids)mm its sad to say but I feel like I wasted my life in a loveless marriage(he turns red)just to realize that Tommy is and has ALWAYS been the LOVE of MY LIFE(Kim stands there with a happy smile)
Henry: Yeah(growls)and see I always knew that!(she frowns) Nothing that I ever did was going to compare to him. The Ring, the house, the cars, the marriage, the vacations were NEVER good enough! No matter how many times I made you smile or called you BEAUTIFUL (Kim glares at him) you always compared me to your precious Thomas Oliver
Kim: NOT TRUE!
Henry: Who is the liar now? You never had to say it but I knew better!(they become quiet when they realize people are looking at them)Kimberly you want to know the reason why I stepped out on you? Its not because I was being a pig. It was because I always felt like I came second to everything; the kids, your friends, school, your job and THOMAS OLIVER(Kim steps back a little)I was always in competition for your heart(Kim looks away disappointed. Davis turns away also defeated)
Kim: ok(looks around)alright Davis(looks at him and he doesn't respond)please look at me(he doesn't)(softly)please(he looks at her and they lock eyes)I'm sorry! I'm sorry for making you feel that way. I could've done better in making you feel like you mattered. Davis when were married, up until 3years ago you were my husband and my better half. No one could change that. I wanted us to be forever Davis but it wasn't in our cards(he nods)your right though even if you were my better half you weren't my world(He nods)I see that now and I did play apart to us ending(sighs)I'm sorry for hurting you(they stand in silence)
Henry: and I'm sorry too(Kim eyes soften) for not being understanding, or faithful, for not being there, for not being supportive of the shop, for putting my hands on you(Kim looks away for a second then back at him)the day decided to leave me when you caught me cheating. My balls still hurt after you kicked me in them(they laugh)I don't think I can have future kids if I wanted too because of….
Kim: my reflects(he chuckles)
Henry: and I deserved that along with Jason's fist to my eye(Kim simply nods with a smile)I don't know what I was thinking BUT I'm sorry for everything! Including this conversation(Kim nods)I'm not in love with you Kim I just said it to make things complicated and to hurt you. You're the mother of my kids and that is where my love stems from.
Kim: Exactly! Me too!(silence hits them)I am happy for you and your girlfriend. I truly am
Henry: Your(smirks)not going to get me to admit that about Oliver(Kim chuckles a little)
Kim: Wouldn't expect you too(he nods)(sweetly)Are we ok now?
Henry: We're ok and I promise to never speak ill about you again to our children
Kim: thank you(smiles)and Tommy?
Henry: I'll try(she raises an eyebrow)really hard(puts out his hand)promise
Kim:(smiles)ok(they shake hands)I'll take it(they break hands)well I better get the girls home
Henry: Yeah I'll pick them up this weekend?
Kim: Yep(turns to leave but stops)Davis?(turns back to him)
Henry: Yeah?
Kim: Would you want to have a heart to heart with Tommy…..to clear the air?
Davis: Actually Yes(Kim looks surprised)Yes I would(crosses his arms)name the time and place(smirks at Kim's bewildered face).
