"Honey, you need to wake up now" a brown skinned woman with thick curly hair said lightly patting emma on the head."No mom I just want to stay here with you and and dad, it's so peaceful over here" emma said to the woman whose face was blurry. "It's not your time yet honey, you have to go back, now" she said as she started fading away."mom!!!! No wait,.please don't go !!! Mom!!!!!!!" Emma screamed as she got up from the dream. She looked around at her environment which was unfamiliar, she gently lifted up her head and felt a weight on her arm, she looked to see Leah who jumped up upon noticing her movement."Emma, thank God you're awake I was worried sick" she said with a teary eye. "Hello to you too" emma replied with a light chuckle,"what happened, why am I in a hospital?" Emma asked sitting up on the bed as leah rushed in to assist her. " You don't remember scaring me to death" leah said with disbelieve. " One minute we were at the beach swimming the next you were drowning, I was so scared it was Jax that helped me carry you to the hospital, I called your mom but she's not here yet" Leah explain. "I think I vaguely remember the drowning part also Jax was there??" Emma asked "is that really all you got from what I said, you love sick idiot" Leah said lightly shoving her aside as emma weaned." I am not love sick, I only asked out of curtesy and human conscience" Emma argued. " Yeah, right anyways I invited a couple of friends to hang out he just happened to be one of the first set to arrive" Leah said. Emma has had a crush on Jax since she met in at the aquarium a few years back with her dad, but she had never told anyone except leah and her dad who never cease to tease her besides he was dating Lyla. " When can I go home, I think I feel fine" emma asked. " Yeah we're waiting for your mom to arrive so we can have you discharged and go home" Leah said."she's not coming, just call my uncle instead" Emma said. "Why, not?" Leah asked suspiciously, "nothing, she's just probably busy with work, you know adult life and stuff" Emma tried to cover up. " Don't butter me up, I'm not stupid, the scars, your sister being a bitch, you never inviting me home, always eating fruits and now this? Are you being maltreated at home ? And don't try to lie to me" Leah asked with all seriousness. Emma couldn't say a word, she just wept instead." O my God emma , we have to report her"leah said hugging her. "I can't, they'll take me to childcare service or worse my step mom finds out and I'll be doomed, so please act like you don't know, promise me ?" But...." Promise me" emma repeated, "okay" Leah said displeased. Emma was later discharged after her uncle arrived and she went home
