“Mom, there’s no need to act this way,” Emmeline timidly addressed her mother. “Abel and I are okay.”

Emmeline patiently explained, “Abel goes to work around six, so you won’t see him then.”
“But what about tonight?” Kimberly walked a few steps into the living room and questioned Abel, “Did you and
Emma book a hotel room?”
He shook his head, saying. “No, Aunt Kimberly, we didn’t. Why would I do that?” He reached out to hold Kimberly’s
hand, but she shook it off.

“Dad!” Emmeline, concerned, approached her father and asked, “What’s happening to Mom?”

Emmeline sat on the floor, utterly bewildered, thinking. Oh, my poor mother!

Kimberly remained resolute, asserting, “My choice is never wrong. This is the way it’s going to be.”
Abel intervened, reaching out to grasp Emmeline’s arm, saying, “Emma, come with me!”
Tears welled up in Emmeline’s eyes, and she shook her head vigorously, exclaiming, “No! Mom will be devastated!”
“Dad!” She kneeled before Maxwell, pleading, Please, tell me what I should do. Dad, save me!”
