Recap

We spent the last half hour talking about the journey here and exploring different places along the way. Until the wooden doors were heard opening and there stood my father.
----
I looked at my father utterly shocked. What was he doing here ? I thought. He came towards us and took a seat in front of me and Killian.
"Emma , I came to apologize. I shouldn't have acted like I was earlier. You just came back , and I should be happy and instead I let anger take the best of me. Im truly sorry Ems can you forgive me ? "
I thought why should I he said all those awful things about Killian that weren't even true. He's changed and he didn't understand that but the other half of me was saying , you should forgive him he's your father , he didn't mean to behave like that.
"Its okay father , just next time maybe listen first ? "
He chucked
"Of course Emma. " They stood up and gave each other a loving warm hug. Until it was interrupted by a cry.
"Oh I should go get Neal " Neal ? who the hell is Neal. Emma thought.
"Um father ? Who's Neal ? "
"Oh Emma Im sorry I didn't tell you earlier but your mother had another child. Your baby brother Neal. "
I was speechless. They had another child?? I was filled with anger and sadness but a little bit of joy. Did they feel the need to replace me with another child?? Did they give up and decided its best to forget me and have another !?!?
"W-What? "
"Emma sweetheart are you okay ?" My mother asked concerned.
"No , Im not okay please just leave me alone. " With that I ran out of the dining room to my old room.
Forgotten. For the past 3 years they gave up at some point and decided to replace me. I thought.
Killian.
Emma ran out of the room. I have no idea why. I noticed when her father told her about her new baby brother she turned pale and seemed a bit off. I looked at her parents giving them a 'Ill talk to her' look. I followed her footsteps leading her to go upstairs into a room. Im guessing her room. I made my way there and once I did I knocked a couple times.
"Emma , love its me Killian. May I come in ?" I heard her walking towards the door and she opened it. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying her eyes out.
"Oh Killian. " She crashed into me giving me a hug. I didn't quite understand why shes this upset.
"Swan , why are you crying ? "
"My parents replace me. They forgot about me all those years I was gone. They probably gave up on looking for me and missed a kid around the castle and decided to have another. " she cried once again.
"Emma why would they do that. They are your parents. They would never replace you. Just because they have another child doesn't mean they are replacing you. If you never had been gone those 3 years , they might would have had Neal anyways would you still think they are 'replacing' you. Gosh Emma you didn't even let them explain themselves. "
Emma was shocked. Killian was right. She had no excuse for this kind of behavior. She was being selfish. She should be happy. And what Killian said was true especially when he said she didn't even let them explain to her. She had to go talk to them.
"Your right Killian , I was being selfish. I should be happy especially now that I have a baby brother. I should go talk to them. "
"Go do that love , ill be here. "
She walked to him and gave him a peck on the lips and made her way down stairs.
