Tatum's POV

Betty and I take the bus to the Sisters Of Quiet Mercy, and we look up at the building in front of us.

"Hey, don't judge a home for troubled youths by its facade, right?" I try and brighten the mood a little bit.

Betty tightens her ponytail, and we cross the road, and go towards the building. We go over to the front desk.

"Hi, my name is Elizabeth Cooper. I'm here to see my sister Polly." Betty tells the sister behind the desk.

"May I see some identification?" She asks.

"Yeah." Betty agrees, and hands over her ID. 

"Sign in here, please." She says, putting a clipboard and pen on the desk in front of her. "She'll have to wait."

I say a quick goodbye to Betty, and she goes with the sister. To, ironically, see her sister. I wait in the front area, nervously waiting for Betty to come back.

But, I know that she wants the catch up with her sister, as they haven't seen each other in a while. 

While I'm waiting, someone familiar comes in the front door. Alice Cooper. She looks at me, and I immediately stand up from where I'm sitting.

She doesn't have to say anything, I already knew she didn't like me from day one. 

"Follow me." Alice demands, and I follow her through the halls. She stops at a door, and I hear Betty's voice from inside.

Alice drags her out, and I follow behind, a nurse next to me. And then, we see her. Polly. A very pregnant Polly.

"Mom?" She says with an angry tone.

"Polly." Alice states.

"Jason's dead? And you didn't tell me?" Polly snaps at her mother. Two nurses notice what's going on, and come running down the hall. "And you kept me in here?"

"Baby, it's for your own good." Alice tries to reason. But, if I was Polly, I wouldn't listen to the person who locked me up in an insane asylum.

"No! You always say that! It's not true!" Polly yells, and struggles in the nurses grip. They try to drag her away. "No, Betty."

Betty steps forward and hugs her sister. "I'm gonna get you out of here, I swear to God." Betty says. "I love you, Polly."

"No! No!" Polly screams as she is dragged away. I can tell Betty's crying, but the nurse blocks me from moving.

As soon as we're outside, and the nurse leaves, I hug Betty, because I know she's hurting right now.

When I get into the Pembrooke, I notice that there are a lot of people sitting at the dining table. Mom, Dad, Archie, Josie, the mayor, and someone I assume to be Josie's dad.

They all look at me as I open the front door.

"Oh, I didn't know anyone was here." I say. "I'll be in my room." I leave them alone, and spend the rest of the night in my bedroom.

-----

The next day, is a Saturday, and the day of the variety show. I come out of my room, still in my pyjamas, because why not, and see Veronica holding a laundry bag.

Then, mom comes out of her room and over to where Veronica is standing.

"I can't wait to see your debut as a Pussycat, Ronnie." She says.

"Mom..." Veronica starts.

"Truely." Mom finishes.

"I've been thinking." Veronica continues.
