Chapter 7:

Emily's P.o.v :

It's late at night. I'm trying hard to sleep. But, this time there's a reason to it. The day has finally arrived. I'm nervous, but I think I can do it. I've always loved doing it. That's the only one thing, which I believe is not a task, unlike for a person like me, even bathing is a task. Eating as well. I know some people won't believe me  when I say this. But, it's true. There would be people like me, right? I don't know why I'm like this. I've asked this specific question a thousands of times on a daily basis. But answer : nada.

This is something you wanted to do, Emily April Hale. And you'll achieve it. You'll prove all those people out there, that you have what it takes.

I'm encouraging myself, because right now I have no one else to do that for me. So, why not start the stupid act of talking to your own self again. Sleep, sleep you weirdo... I don't know how do you even have a best friend. Wait, I guess even she comes in the category of weirdo. Ahan... That's why.

It's time, I should sleep now. I've to get up early and feel fresh. Goodnight mom and dad. I love you. I miss you. Please pray for me.
     
6:00 a.m.

Normally, I'm the person who sleeps with 13 alarms going off, even though I'll snooze them all anyway. But today, I'm awake exactly on time. I stop the alarm and not snooze it.  It's time for a shower. I can't go all stinky, it's a big day today. It takes fairly 20 minutes for me to shower. Not bad Em. *talking to myself again*... Its like, If Sherlock can discover the Van Buren Supanova in 10 seconds, I can take a shower in 20 minutes, right?
   
Today is the day. I'm damn excited, as well as nervous. The day I've to prove myself. The big day is here. It's been so long since I've done this. But, I still believe to some extent that I can do this. I have to do this. My only chance. I can't disappoint David once again. He has done a lot for me. I'm sorry Dad, I know you probably don't want me to do this, but I'm left with no choice.

I get ready into my suitable clothes and head downstairs to prepare breakfast. Both my brothers will be awake in a few hours and go all hungry.

They'll be awake soon. I've made pancakes for them. I want to stay and feel healthy today. I know, I know.. It's not supposed to be for just one day. But I'm having fruits right now thinking it'll make a difference. Leaving a note saying that I'll be out for few hours, I get my lucky jacket and my necessary things. I head towards the door.
   

David's P.o.v :

I know this is a difficult time for her, but I can only help her this much. She has to do the convincing part on her own. I trust her with that.

I was pretty much convinced when she asked me to give her a chance. I did leave the passcode unchanged purposely. That wasn't for sympathy. I had to see the rage, the fire boiling within her when I said the word sympathy. She hates it. To make her understand, that this is the only chance, she has to work really hard for it. I knew she'd come. I knew she'd never let me help her as a favour. I never said no to her. I could see passion in her eyes. She has always been passionate about this.

I don't have any children. But if I ever did, I'd want Emily. Always. She's one of a kind. Truly responsible. She's crazy. But she's smart too. She doesn't believe when I say that she's damn beautiful, she never did. She always says she's average. I don't understand why a person so pretty would call herself average.
