Life Changing

Chapter 49

Amy was coming to stay with Emily and Sam in two days. Emily was so stressed about it. She was at lunch with Britt.

"I have such a headache right now." Emily said.

"Why?" "Are you and John having problems?"

"No." "Sam and I are great." "It's my sister."

"Your sister?" Britt said surprised. "I didn't know you had a sister."

"I do." "Her name's Amy."

"Why haven't you ever mentioned her?"

"We don't get along." "We lost our mom at a very young age and after our dad died she just went on a downward spiral." "She started hanging out was the wrong crowd, got involved in drugs." "She's getting paroled in two days."

"Paroled?" "She's in prison?"

"Yeah."

"What for?"

"Armed robbery."

"Wow."

"I just don't want her to come and screw up my life." "I'm happy and I wanna stay that way."

"Maybe she's changed."

"You sound like Sam." "I'd really like to believe that she's changed, I want to but I doubt it."

"Have you always not gotten along?"

"No we used to be really close when we were little." "I just hope I don't regret this."

Two days later Emily, Sam and Penelope were at home. They were waiting for Amy. There was a knock at the door. Emily took a deep breath and answered it.

"Emily!" Amy said happily. She hugged her. "I'm so happy to see you." She went inside.

"How was your flight?" Emily asked.

"Fine."

"Wanna meet the family?"

"Yes I do."

"This is my boyfriend Sam"

"Hi." "

"Nice to meet you Amy." He said.

"Nice to meet you to." Amy said.

"Penelope come here." Emily said. "This is our daughter Penelope."

"Hi." "You are so adorable."

"Thank you." Penelope said. "Would you like to meet our dogs Bubbles and Princess and the rest of the puppies?"

"You guys have puppies?" "I love puppies."

Later the night they were all sitting down to dinner.

"This is a great house." Amy said. "What do you do for a living Sam?"

"I'm a professional wrestler."

Amy looked at Emily. "Like dad used to watch?"

"Yeah." Emily said. "That's how we met." "I'm a make-up artist for AEW."

They spent the rest of the night talking. Emily and Sam explained to Amy that she would be alone a lot due to them being on the road the majority of the time. Emily showed Amy to the guesthouse.

"I love Penelope." Amy said. "She looks just like you."

"Well that's impossible since I'm not her biological mother."

"You're not?"

"No her mom died when she was four."

"Sam's great." "Are you guys engaged?"

"No." "Neither of us want to get married again."

"You were married?"

"Yeah."

"To who?"

"Travis."

"What happened?"

"I got pregnant with a baby boy." "I carried the pregnancy to term but it was a stillbirth."

"I'm sorry." "Were you going to name him Greyson?"

"Yeah." "After I lost the baby Travis and I just drifted apart."

"Then you and Sam got together?"

"Eventually yes." "Travis started coming back about six months ago." "He wanted to get back together wouldn't take no for an answer." "Five months ago he beat me up and he raped me."

"Oh my god, did you report him?"

"Yeah." "He got twenty years.

"I'm so sorry I wasn't there to support you."

"Goodnight Amy."

"You don't trust me at all do you?"

"No." "You have to earn my trust."

"Fair enough."

"Just so you know, if you do anything to hurt my family or my friends while you're here, not only will I turn you in, I'll even speak to you again." She left.
