“Ashley’s” Amy sighed “I’m going to stay here for a few days”

“Yeah that’s fine…Are you ok?” Bette asked

“What you think Mama?” Amy asked walking out the kitchen and into her bedroom closing the door.

Bette sighed; she put the baseball bat down and sat down at the table.

Tina and Nathan got home 10 minutes later.

“I’m going for a shower” Nathan told them as he walked straight to the bathroom.

“Baby” Tina said closing the kitchen door “We need to speak to Amy”

“You don’t say…She’s here…In her room…Scared the crap out of me” Bette sighed

“Is she staying?” Tina asked

“Yep, I asked if she was ok and her response was what do you think?” Bette told

“I’m going to go speak to her” Tina said getting up

“Babe leave it the now, I think she’s been drinking”

“She doesn’t drink” Tina said shocked

“Apparently she does now” Bette sighed

Tina walked out the kitchen and to Amy’s room. She knocked on the door and opened it. Amy was sitting on her bed with her chin resting on her knees.

“Hi sweetheart” Tina smiled

Amy looked up “Hey”

“Were worried about you” Tina stated

“No need I’m a big girl” Amy responded

“Baby you’re drinking and you don’t drink” Tina stated

“Like a said I’m a big girl” Amy responded coldly

“Does Jacqui know you’re here?” Tina asked

“Jacqui doesn’t need to know everything”

“Amy please don’t be like this”

“Be like what Mum!” Amy snapped she threw her glass off the wall.

Bette and Nathan appeared at the door.

“Be hurt…Be so bloody angry with myself…be scared” Amy cried “Because I am and I cant get rid of it…I just wish everyone would leave me the fuck alone…every two seconds I’m asked if I’m ok…Well no I’m not ok!”

Bette went into the kitchen to get the brush and shovel she returned. “Nathan go put something on your feet please.

Nathan did as he was told no questions asked.

Bette cleared up the glass from Amy’s floor and wiped the mess.
