| Grim Reality A Songfic by TiraChan One stormy night Delbert and Amelia were tucking in Anna, Kelsey and Jessie. When They walked into the living room, Since the children were reaching the kindergarten age, Amelia brought up the concept of school. Delbert had been in a pretty BAD mood because of work. "Delbert, dear, it's about time for the children to start school...so----" "Yes, I know. They are going to be attending the Einstein Academy, for young scientists." he said. Amelia frowned. "Well, Delbert honey, I kinda wanted the girls to attend the Intersteller academy. They have younger classes now." Delbert seemed put out by the thought of this. "NO! I'd rather have them go to Einstein." Delbert cursed under his breath and rubbed the back of his head. Amelia was getting mad. "I only meant the girls!" she yelled. Delbert stood up and started to walk out. "Don't you walk away from me when I'm TRYING to talk to you Delbert!!" she yelled. He turned around. "Well, I've decided where the kids are going and thats FINAL!" "LET THE GIRLS GO TO THE INTERSTE----" "AMELIA! MY HOUSE, MY RULES, AND I DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH THE CHILDREN! IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN GET OUT!" he yelled. Amelia was crushed. "Fine. if you want me out, I'll go. Let's see YOU deal with the children. OH! And since I'm not coming back, tell them I love them. bye." with that, Amelia walked out. "GO THEN!" Delbert yelled. A few hours later, Delbert's mood had subsided. Things had been going wrong for him since the week before. Now this. He sighed and decided to pray, maybe things would look up, and she might come home. I need a sign, to let me know your here. All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere. I need to know, when things are gonna look up. Cause' I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup. And there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head,when you can feel the world shake from the words that I said... And I'm calling all Angels, And I'm calling all you angels... And I won't give up, if you don't give up. I won't give up if you don't give up... I won't give up if you don't give up... I won't give up, if you don't give up... Then he went to bed. Across town, Amelia was staying at the Benbow Inn. She had told Sarah all that had happened. She went into her room about 2:00 AM and began to cry. She looked up to the ceiling and whispered... I need a sign, to let me know your here. Cause' my TV set just keeps it all from being clear. I want a reason for the way things have to be, I need a hand to help bulid up somehope inside of me. And I'm calling all angels...And I'm calling all you angels... When children have to play inside so they don't disappear... While private eyes solve marrige lies cause' we don't talk for years... And football teams are kissing queens and losing sight of having dreams... In a world where all we want is only what we want until it's ours... And I'm calling all angels....And I'm calling all you angels... And I'm calling all angels.....and I'm calling all you angels....please.... The next day Amelia went back to Delbert's house. When she walked in, the kids were playing and Delbert was...what looked like....crying. "Delbert? Why aren't you at work?" she asked. He looked up. "Momma!" yelled Anna, "Me and Daddy painted somthin' for you!!" she said tugging he over. It was what looked like Delbert, Amelia, Annabel, Kelsey, Jessie and Dodger standing in front of what seemed to be an angel...watching over them. Scribbled on the side, were the words... I'm sorry, will you forgive me my love? Amelia looked to Delbert, and said "Yes I will" Delbert was happy,he hugged her and aplogized like 20 times.. The next day,they got their family potriat done... As soon as I can I will upload my family potrait of them!!!! The song is "Calling all Angels" by Train. |
