Meanwhile Amy and Karen tried to work out what to do or how to fix it.

Karen: "we should have known something was wrong but we didn't do anything about it."
Amy: "what do we do? You've known her longer."
Karen: "first we have to try and find her, apologise then make her realise that we're actually on her side."
Amy: "where do we start?"
Both girls thought about it then went "dance studio"

They got their things and went to the dance studio as quickly as they could. When they got there they heard Disney songs and instantly knew it was Janette. Karen and Amy followed the songs to the room and found Janette sat in the middle of the floor crying. They opened the door and said "do you want some company?" Janette turned around and nodded. Amy and Karen sat either side of their friend.

Janette: "sorry for running off."
Amy: "it's ok, sorry for making it look like we were talking about you. We're both worried about you and were trying to figure out how to help you."

Janette realised that they really did care about her and were only trying to help.

"I miss my family, plus Aljaz acting the way he is. This pregnancy wasn't meant to be like this at all. Plus opening up about my last one which I haven't spoken about in years has all got to me." Janette explained while crying.

Amy and Karen put an arm around their friend comforting her while she let out her built up tears. Once Janette was calmer, Amy went to get some tissues and drinks from the shop while Janette and Karen stayed in the studio. It made sense for Karen to stay as her and Janette had been friends longer and knew how to get Janette to open up.

Karen: "you feeling any better now?"
Janette: "a little bit"
Karen: "if you wanna talk you know I'm here and so is Amy."
Janette: " I know and I'm grateful, it's just I've kept it to myself for so long that talking about it is taking a lot of strength."

*Amy comes back*

Amy: "we get that and we're sorry, we thought we were trying to help but we see now that we weren't."
Karen: "yeah, we'll let you take the lead on how to handle it and we're here if and when you want to talk. I'm going to have to go but you know where I am if you need anything."
Janette: "thanks girls. I really appreciate both of you."

*Karen leaves*

Janette: "can we go back to yours?"
Amy: "I've already messaged Ben to pick us up. What do you wanna do?"
Janette: "brainstorm baby shower ideas and guests. I still haven't told my family about the baby yet."
Amy: "if that's what you wanna do that's what we'll do. Do you want to call them and tell them?"
Janette: "I dont know. I have no idea how my mum is going to take it."
Amy: "will it help if I'm with you when you call them?"
Janette: "thank you."

*Amy receives a text*

Amy: "Ben's here"

The girls grabbed their things and went down to where Ben was waiting.
