Chapter 24- Not Edited

I got to Marissa's before 4:30 even though I was told 5:00, and as soon as I walked in the door Emma was jumping into my arms. I guess it was a good thing she wasn't big... Correction: I guess it was a good thing I was a football player. Marissa was looking more tired by the day, and she looked very frail like she hadn't eaten in days. I immediately felt concerned, she was already doing too much with still working while everything was happening.

"Hey Marissa, have you eaten yet?" I inquired with concern.

She sighed and shook her head. "I was gonna order takeout for you guys, but I haven't yet because I didn't know what you guys would want."

"But mommy," Emma questioned, "We've been eating fast food all week, shouldn't we do something else?"
