Emily and Jems tried to leave through the massive crowd that was still taking pictures of them. Flashes were going off everywhere. People were shouting, pushing, and trying to get closer.

"Mrs. Dawson! Mrs. Dawson, is it true?!"

"Jems! How do you feel about having a brother and sister?!"

"Move! Please, just move!" one of the police officers shouted, creating a path for them.

"Mum, are you okay?" Jems asked, holding Emily's hand tightly as they pushed through the crowd.

"No, baby," Emily said, h

    The rays of sunlight were peeking through Jems' bedroom curtains, painting golden streaks across her sleeping face. She stirred slightly, her eyes fluttering as the brightness tried to pull her from sleep. She rubbed her eyes groggily, squinting against the light, and threw her arm over her face to block it out. With a sleepy groan, she grabbed her blanket and pulled it up over her head, burying herself beneath it. Her hair was a complete mess, wild, tangled, and spread across the pillow in every direction like she'd been fighting demons in her sleep.But the sunlight was relentless.With a frustrated sigh, she finally gave up trying to go back to sleep. She sat up slowly, rubbing her puffy, sleepy eyes with the backs of her hands. Her body felt heavy and exhausted, like she hadn't slept at all. She swung her legs over the side of the bed and shuffled toward the door, her feet dragging across the floor.As she passed her mum's room, she noticed the door was slightly open, just a crack

    Jems was trying to eat, but she didn't have an appetite. She just sat there at the dining table, holding her spoon limply in her hand, staring blankly at the risotto on her plate. She hadn't taken a single bite."You also don't feel like eating?" Ethan's voice suddenly broke through the silence.Jems looked up at him and nodded slowly, her eyes tired and sad."I also don't have an appetite," she whispered, dropping the spoon with a soft clink against the plate. She stood up from her chair, ready to leave the table.But before she could take a step, Ethan reached out and gently grabbed her wrist, stopping her. His touch was warm, firm but gentle. He guided her back down into her seat. Then, he did something that made her heart nearly stop. He grabbed her chair and dragged it forward, closer to him, positioning it directly in front of his own so they were facing each other. Their knees were almost touching.Jems' heart started racing, pounding so hard she could hear it in her ears."I'l

    After a while, a knock was heard on the door, and Jems quickly jumped up from the couch, pulling away from Ethan's embrace."Mum!" she yelled the moment she saw Emily, throwing herself at her and hugging her tightly. "What took you so long?" She pulled back immediately, her hands frantically examining her mother's body from head to toe, checking every inch like she was searching for injuries."I'm fine, baby," Emily said softly, stepping into the house. But she didn't look fine. She looked completely drained, like all the life had been sucked out of her. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, her face was pale as a ghost, and her shoulders sagged under the weight of everything she'd just learned."Good evening, Mrs. Dawson," Ethan greeted politely, standing up from the couch."Ethan? You're here?" Emily asked, genuinely surprised to see him."I heard what happened, and I got so worried about Jems. That's why I came over," Ethan explained, his voice sincere."That's so sweet of you

    Jems was so worried that Emily wasn't back yet. She kept pacing back and forth in the living room, clutching her phone tightly in her hand, checking it every few seconds. Her heart was racing. Her mind was spinning with a thousand terrible thoughts.What if something happened to Mum? What if Jessica hurt her? What if,Knock. Knock. Knock.Jems' heart leaped. She ran to the door, expecting to see her mother. But when she opened it, it wasn't Emily standing there. It was Ethan. Before she could even process it, he pulled her into a tight embrace.Jems froze, completely shocked. Her arms hung limp at her sides. She didn't know what to do. She could feel his heartbeat against her chest, fast and strong. She could smell his cologne, and she inhaled it like she had missed the smell."I heard what happened," Ethan said, his voice muffled against her hair. "I saw you crying in that video, and I couldn't stop myself from coming. I was really worried."Jems' breath caught in her throat. "You we

    Emily went to the hospital to see Jessica, leaving Jems at home. Jems had wanted to go with her, but Emily insisted on going alone."Mum, it might be dangerous," Jems said, holding onto Emily's arm tightly, her voice filled with worry. "What if she hurts you? What if she says you stole her husband?"Emily turned to face her daughter, placing a gentle hand on her cheek. "I've only spent one day with Jessica, but trust me, I know she's not that type of person. I'll be fine, so don't worry, okay?"Jems bit her lip, hesitating. Her eyes searched her mother's face, looking for any sign of doubt. Finally, she nodded slowly. "Okay... if you trust her, then you can go."Just then, the front door burst open. Nana came rushing into the house, almost running, her face etched with panic and concern."Emily!" she called out, her voice trembling."Nana," Emily said, turning toward her."I was so worried!" Nana cried, tears already streaming down her weathered face as she pulled Emily into a tight e
