"I guess I just have to let you do what you need to.  Is there nothing I can say to make this any better?"

"I think you have said enough.  I will call you."  She moves aside and I enter the house.  I take a deep breath and push back the curtain some so I can watch her leave.

"Spencer are you ready for your session?"  Darlene is there with dad smiling right behind her.  Not her again.  I almost forgot,

"Dad, mom came by and wants to talk to you about coming back home."  His face fell.

"When did she come by?"

"Last night while you were at work."  I answer and see Darlene give my dad an odd look.

"Right, well I will deal with her later."

"You at least need to call her, she did not seem to be doing well."  I push.

"Alright I will go call her."  He leaves the room and Darlene motions into the living room to start our session.  I push myself and put all my feeling into the workout.  We are almost done and I feel that I can think rationally now about the whole Ashley and Aiden situation.  Now that most of my anger is gone I can think about what to do and if I want to try and work things out with Ashley.  Darlene leaves and my dad was disappointed that he didn’t get to say goodbye.

"Did you get mom?"  I ask.

"No, she was not at the hotel and the hospital said she hadn’t been in to work.  I wonder where she could be?"  At a bar.  I thought to myself, but did not say it out loud.  I just shrugged my shoulders and went into my room to take a shower and get ready for dinner.  Before I go in I decide to make a call.

"Hello?" 

"Hey Kyla, it’s Spencer.  Do you have a second?"  I ask hoping that she is able to talk.

"Sure Spencer, what’s up?"

"I talked to Ashley and finally got the whole Aiden situation out of her.  I am kind of stuck as to what to do and thought that maybe you could give me a second opinion."

"Uhm…I guess I could try and help you out.  Have you forgiven her for what she did?"  I sigh not knowing the answer.
