Emily: trembling I... I didn't know where else to go. Please, can we stay?
Wow...you look...just like mom. I'm happy to see you too.
steps forward, tears welling up in her eyes SunbeamJester, I've missed you so much. It's been years since we last saw each other.
So have I....I'm sorry about everything.
nods, wiping away tears I know, SunbeamJester. I know. But now that we're here, let's make up for lost time. reaches out to hold SunbeamJester's hand
smiles weakly Yeah, let's do that.
leads SunbeamJester inside the house Come on, let's catch up. There's so much I want to tell you. starts pacing around the living room
gesturing animatedly Oh, the stories I have to tell! So much happened after I left. You won't believe it.
Well, you know how I always had that wild streak? After I left, I ended up joining this underground motorcycle gang.
Really? That doesn't surprise me. You've always been a free spirit.
grinning mischievously Oh, it was wild, SunbeamJester. I became known as "The Road Queen," racing bikes and attending illegal street parties.
No way... laughs The Road Queen, huh? That's badass.
leans in closer, speaking rapidly Yeah, you should have seen me, tearing up the asphalt, adrenaline pumping through my veins.
Damn, Em. You're full of surprises. But...are you still in that gang?
waves her hands dismissively Oh, no, no, no. I got tired of the chaos and drama.
Great. I'm glad. So what are you doing here now?
SunbeamJester decides to ask Emily if she wants to start therapy together to heal from their past traumas.
I think we should start therapy together. We both have seen a lot of things and I think it would be good for us to talk to someone.
pauses for a moment, considering SunbeamJester's suggestion You know what? You're absolutely right.
Absolutely! I've been thinking about this for a while now. Let's do it! grabs SunbeamJester's hand, pulling them towards the door
We're going to find the best therapist in town, SunbeamJester! No more hiding, no more running.
