ocean's 9: the lost daughter

chapter 6 - the new heist

Emma woke up feeling pain in her broken arm, she tried to move to reach her phone but wasn't able because of the amount of pain.

Luckily it was already morning so her mother wouldn't take long to help her.

"Good morning, sweetie" Debbie greeted the girl with a smile on her face that immediately dropped as she realized that the girl was in pain.

"Why didn't you scream?" Debbie asked mad as she took the girl's pain killers.

"I thought you were still sleeping" the girl said after taking the pill.

"It's not good to feel pain, honey" Debbie sat at the edge of the bed waiting for Emma's color come back as the girl was looking pale and all sweaty.

"I am sorry" Emma said.

"It's okay, it's not your fault" Debbie said.

"And it's not Lou's either" Emma said knowing that her mother was mad at Lou.

She realized Debbie was blaming Lou because she knew the blonde was able to always come the other down, but for a specific reason the oldest brunette was pushing the blue eyed away.

"I know" Debbie said.

"Do you really?" Emma asked and Debbie looked curious at her. "Because yesterday she wasn't even looking at me mom and she was feeling guilty"

Debbie didn't answer.

"I got distracted, this is why i felt. Lou warned me to be careful" the youngest explained.

"I just, i shouldn't have allowed you to go"

"Mama, i am sixteen already, i want a drivers license, i want to learn how to drive. Besides i had a really great time with Lou" Emma said and Debbie realized that her daughter was no longer a baby.

Ocean really wanted to have her time back with her daughter but she couldn't have that, so she had to enjoy the time she had now, even if it was short.

"I am sorry, honey. Sometimes i forget you are not my little baby anymore" Debbie said with her eyes tearing up.

"Don't cry mama" Emma chuckled. "I am still your baby"

"But you look like a mini adult" Debbie said and Emma laughed.

"Well, i grew up pretty much all by myself, i had to grow up faster" the youngest said and the oldest felt bad about it.

"But it's still morning and there are so many things i would like to do, starting by eating because i am starving" Emma said cutting the sad energy that was being created in the environment and Debbie laughed.

"But mama, please, don't blame Lou" Emma pleased again to her mother as she finished getting ready with Debbie's help. "She really does care for me and for you"

"I know, sweetie" Debbie nodded and kissed the girl on the forehead.

"There you are" Lou smiled as the girl entered the kitchen. "I made pancakes for you because pancakes always make everything better"

Emma smiled.

"Thank you, Loulou"

The youngest exchanged a mad stare to her mother indicating Lou. She wanted them to be in good terms.

After her conversation with Lou last night and the realization that maybe the blonde was in love with her mother she took really long to sleep.

She also started to feel more attached to Lou, as the blonde was becoming like a mother to the girl. And if she was really in love with her mom, the girl wanted to do everything that she could to make them both be together.
