(Chapter 5)
(At the Williams house) Josh pulled in to their driveway I got out of the car, I was really scared. Josh and I walked the front door. ‘Knock, Knock’ Mrs. William answered the door. “Hello Emma!” she said happily.
“Hi, how is everything going?” I asked.
“Great everything is going fine.”She answered “Who is this?”She whispered pointing to Josh.
“This is Josh he is Leah’s Father.”I whispered back.
“Oh, Hello Josh.”She said putting her hand out.
“Hello, Mrs. William” Josh replied and shook her hand.
“Come on in, and call me Karen” She said, gesturing us in.
We walked in and sat on the couch.
“So what brings you here?”Karen asked.
“Well I was wondering if Josh could meet Leah.”I asked sweetly.
“Of course you can, I’ll be right back.”Karen said happily.
(Josh’s Prov)
We sat and waited for Karen to come back with Leah. I was so nervous I can’t believe I’m going to see her. A few minutes later Karen came out with the most beautiful baby girl in the world.
“Hey Leah.”Emma said.
Leah smiled like she knew that was her real mom.
“You want to hold her” She asked me.
“Yes, I do.” I answered.
“Here you go.” She said while putting Leah in my arms.
She smiled at me. I felt a tear coming down my face. She grabbed my finger and squeezed it. I loved her, I want her so bad. I smiled; I looked around and saw a chair I sat down. I started to sing her Mary had a little lam.
(Emma’s Prov)
Karen pulled me over while Josh was with Leah.
“Okay I know this is going to really surprise you but I got offered a job in England, and I took it.”She told me has we walked in to the kitchen.
“That’s um great um when are you guys leaving?” I asked with my eyes watering.
“I am leaving in a week.” She replied.
“What do you mean by You are leaving?” I asked now confused.
“I mean I’m leaving Leah behind with you guys, I can’t take her away from you two, I see the way you two look at her, I’m not just going to pack up and leave with her.” She said simply
“Wait you mean, We are Adopting Leah back!?”I asked a little surprised and Happy at the same time.
“Yes, I already talk to my lawyer and your parents; I got the papers all you have to do is sign them and you will legally own your daughter back.” She said happily.
“OMG thank you Karen so much you don’t know how much it means to us.” I said while I started to cry.
