Previously on To Hell And Back:

Peggy slowly walked up to Helena not wanting to startle her in anyway.

"Helena it’s mummy baby look at me sweetheart, please.

"I’m here and it’s going to be ok." She tried too hug her but Helena stepped back and tried to

walk away. Peggy knew this was what Helena did when  she was frighten or upset, she pulled

away. But not this time she would not allow thie to happen again. She was determine not to

lose her child again, and whatever it took she would do it.

Now :

Peggy had to think quick because she knew the more Helena got like this the harder it would be to communicate with her. "You know Wilson and Jun they really miss thier mom and they can’t wait until you get back to the hotel."

This got Helena’s attention. "Jun and Wilson, they’re here?

"Yes dear they’re at the hotel awaiting your return." "Don’t you want to see your kids?

The sparks in Helena’s eyes didn’t go unnotice by Peggy.

"Mother what kind of question is that? Of course I want to see them. But not like this."

"What were you thinking? Look at me mother. Do you really think I want my children to see me this way?

"I’m a total wreck. Helena drop her head and spoke so softly that Peggy almost didn’t hear her. "I don’t even know who I am.

"Well I know who you are. You are Helena A. Peabody. Mother to Wilson and Jun, daughter of the world renowned Peggy Peabody, heiress to the Peabody estate. "Your beautiful, intelligent, headstrong, arrogant and very giving. And I wouldn’t trade anything about you."You know why?"

As Peggy spoke her voice was starting to break.

"Because it’s quite simple, I love you. "And it took something like this to make me get my priorities together, and my main priority is you."

Helena I am so sorry to have taken so long to get my act right, but one day I hope you can and will forgive me.

Helena couldn’t believe what she was hearing coming from her mother’s mouth. Could this be the same woman who practically disown her just months ago? Or was this some type of ploy to reel her in just to turn her back on her again. She wanted to believe her, but she was still unsure. So she decided to do and say what was in her heart. "I love you to."

Peggy took a few steps up to her daughter and softly touch her face before embracing her totally.

The limo drove slowly away from the Northern California Women’s Facility in route to the Stockton Metropolitian Airport. Mother and daughter have alot to talk about and there was no time like the present so they did.

TBC?
