"I can't believe it! My baby on drugs and a possible alcoholic!" McKayla's mother said in disbelief over the phone

Robert was nodding over the phone and gave a big sigh

"What do I do? I'm worried" he said

"I'm gonna tell her to come home!" her mother said now angry

"No, no, no! She won't be happy with a lecture from you or your husband. Since I'm over here, let me talk to her. Maybe I can get through to her" he pleaded with McKayla's mother

There was a brief silence on McKayla's mothers end

"Okay. I trust you. Just do it before she comes home" her mother finally said

"Okay. I'll keep you updated" Robert responded

"Thank you Robert. I'll see you later" said McKayla's mother

"See you later" he said back

They both hung up and Robert looked at himself in the mirror

"Here we go" he thought

he left the motel and took a cab to the college.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

McKayla was laying in her bed, enjoying her day off from classes because of the teacher convention. She just finished a line of coke and was listening to her ipod when someone knocked

"GO AWAY!" she yelled

A few minutes past when her phone buzzed

Robert: ANSWER YOUR DOOR!

McKayla groaned, got up and hid her drugs, then answered the door to see a pissed off Robert

"What?" she snapped

"You know what!" he responded

McKayla was about to say something, but Robert held his hand up

"Look! I just want to talk...not argue" he said

McKayla sighed and moved aside to let Robert in. He scanned the room and noticed a used needle near her desk. He walked over to where the needle was, picked it up, and turned around giving McKayla a sad look

"Why?" he asked

McKayla shrugged and sat down on her bed. Robert sat down beside her and grabbed her hand

"You have me worried. I've been worried ever since you left! And this...finding this out made it worse" he said looking down

McKayla remained silent as he went on

"This needle here, could be your jail sentence or your life. It could also mean the end of a future" continued Robert as he held the needle he found

He then got up and threw the needle away. After that, he went back over to McKAyla and sat down

"Look at me" he said to her

She looked up at Robert and he had this serious look

"You need to choose...the drugs, your life and career, or jail" he finally said

Those three words went through McKayla's head as Robert got up and went over to her door

"Think about it and call me before you head home" he said

He left and McKayla looked at the door

"Prick" she mumbled as she laid back down
