~ETHAN~
I head over to Whitney's house so I can tell Theresa how I feel. I go up to
the door and knock. After a few moments, Whitney answers...
"Ethan, what are you doing here?"
"Whitney, I know Theresa's here. Can I talk to her?"
"I don't know if that's a good idea right now--"
"Please. I won't hurt her. I promise."
"Alright, come on in." Whitney leads me into her house and I see Theresa
sitting on the couch crying.
"Theresa-"
"Ethan, what are you doing here?"
"I need to talk to you---about my feelings..........."

As I enter the Book Cafe, I'm surprised to see Kay there and even more
surprised to see her eating breakfast with Ivy Crane. I want to go over to
her, but I don't want to upset her. She starts to cry and Mrs. Crane puts
her arm around her. She's probably crying because of me. I really hurt her.
I move a little closer to hear what they're saying.
"I love Miguel so much! But he hates me!" I can't believe it. Kay's in
love with me....

As i walk into the Book Cafe I notice Ivy. When I get a little closer, I
notice that she's sitting there with my daughter. Kay looks really upset
about something. She starts crying and Ivy puts her arm around her. I have
to go see what's going on. I go up to the table.
"Kay, honey, what's the matter?"
"Dad. Nothing's the matter."
"Kay, you can't fool me. You're crying, sweetie. Please tell me."
"I don't really want to talk about it."
"You need to talk about it. It's not god to keep things inside."
"I'm not keeping them inside. I told Mrs. Crane."
I look at Ivy and then at Kay. I can't believe my daughter opened up to
someone. She won't open up to anyone. The last person I expected it to be
was Ivy.
"By the way, sweetie, happy birthday."
"Thanks, dad. I'm gonna get going now. I have to meet Simone. Thank you so
much, Mrs. Crane. For the breakfast and for the shoulder to cry on. You're
the kindest person I've ever met, and the most understanding."
"Thank you, Kay. You have yourself a good birthday and if you ever need to
talk about anything, day or night, you have my number and don't hesitate to
call me."
"Thanks. Bye Mrs. Crane. Bye dad."
"Bye sweetie. I'll see you later." I say, as I kiss her on the forehead and
she leaves.
"Thank you, Ivy. My daughter doesn't open up to anyone. I'm glad that you
were there for her."
"Your daughter is very special."
"I know. Ivy, can we talk?"
"About what, Sam?"
"Not in here, let's go outside....."

I arrive at the station and finish the paperwork they needed me to do. I
can't believe I kissed Sheridan Crane. I want nothing more than to find her
and finish that wonderful kiss we started. The ringing of my cell phone
interrupts my thougths...
"Lopez-Fitzgerald. Hey, Sheridan. No, I'm not doing anything later.
Really? That sounds like it would be really great. Ok. I'll see you later.
Bye."
Yes! I'm going to Sheridan's house! I can't wait to see her again
and hold her again....
