Emma stops fidgeting and meets Dr. Abrams pointed gaze with anger of her own. “Because, I could care less about her.”
“Sounds like you do-oo,” Marta sing-songs. Who is this chick, poster girl for most irritating teen?
“Be quiet, Marta!” Emma snaps. “Like I said, Audrey is my legal guardian, that’s it.”
“Do you want her to be more?” Dr. Abrams asks.
Emma narrows her eyes and spins the ring on her middle finger. “Audrey gave my dad a choice when she got pregnant: her or me. He chose me. She walked away. Any mother who could do that isn’t one I want in my life. So no, I don’t want anything from her except her guardianship which allows me to stay in the only home I’ve ever known.”
:D This is epic! :) Love it! Your lines are curious and tantalizing...now I really want to read more. I'll schedule this for Monday's blog since I don't blog Fridays! :)
