Deanna made her way back into the house and wasn't surprised that her father didn't come in. She heard his car peel off and shook her head. How her Mom could defend him she doesn't know and doesn't want to know. She would never get it that was for sure.
When she got back inside Val looked at her and said "Do you feel better now honey?"
Deanna gave her aunt a small smile and said "Actually yes I do."
Valerie nodded and looked back at Brenda. "How are you feeling now?"
Brenda gave a dry little laugh. "I feel like I have been run over by a Mack truck. Besides that I just got called a slut so yeah I'm feeling wonderful."
Valerie chuckled a little and said "Well at least you're home now and with people who love you and care for you."
Brenda sighed and looked around. She saw David, Donna, Steve, a woman she didn't know, her brother and then one of the people she didn't really want to see of course which is Kelly. She could have done without seeing Kelly anytime soon. She still had a lot of residual anger towards her.
She nodded and looked at her brother and said "I've missed you."
Brandon smiled a little and said "I've missed you too Sis. We need to get you to a Doctor though."
Brenda shook her head. "No we don't. I have an appointment tomorrow with one of the top neurologist in the United States. I'll be fine until then."
Brandon looked like he didn't believe Brenda but sighed and said "Fine you win. But if you start feeling bad at anytime I want you to tell me. I just got you back Bren I don't want to lose you now."
Brenda gave Brandon a sad smile. "I'm trying Bran I really am. I just don't know how much more fight I have left in me. I'm tire ding out and I don't know if I have energy left to fight."
Deanna sucked in a breath at that and said "Mom you have to keep fighting. I can't lose you."
Brenda looked over at Deanna and gave her a small smile. "I'm going to keep fighting Sweetheart. I'm trying I really am. Maybe being here will help me even more."
Deanna bent down and hugged her Mom gently and said through her tears "I love you Mom. You can't give up no matter how much you want too. You'll get better I know you will."
Brandon was having a hard time swallowing and he pulled his new niece into his arms and hugged her tightly and said "Shh baby girl it'll be alright. We won't let your Mom give up. I swear to you we won't."
Deanna sniffled and hugged Brandon back as tightly as she could. She felt as if he was her lifeline right now.
Donna who had tears in her eyes from hearing everything said "You're Uncle Brandon is right sweetie. We won't let your Mom go without a fight. We all just got her back and there is now way in hell we're losing her now. I may not have been the friend I should have been for the last ten years but that changes now."
David nodded and walked over to Brenda and bent down and kissed her head and said "Welcome home Brenda. It's good to have you home and Donna, Deanna and Brandon are all right. We're not letting you go without a fight. So you just get the energy from somewhere babe because you have a lot of years left in you to live."
Brenda gave a watery chuckle and said "It's good to be home even if I came back because I'm sick. I've missed you guys."
Kelly who was standing in the background took a step forward and whispered "Even me Brenda?"
Brenda looked over at Kelly and felt all the anger go out of her and she nodded and whispered back "Yes, even you Kelly."
Kelly smiled and dropped down to the ground beside the couch and hugged Brenda but made sure that she hugged her gently and she whispered "I'm so sorry for everything Brenda."
Brenda smiled and hugged Kelly back and even kissed her on the head and whispered back "All is forgiven now Kel. Don't worry about it."
Kelly nodded but didn't let Brenda go. She was afraid that if she did then she would lose it and she had to stay strong for Brenda and everyone else.
