UP UNTIL THE moment she received the call, it had been a beautiful summer day on the water for Emily and a few close friends. They were enjoying the long holiday weekend aboard a boat on the lake.

Sun and fun.

“Come home, come home!” Gail shouted over the phone to her daughter. Gail was hysterical. George and Donna had left her there alone at the hotel. The day had been a mistake. She went to meet Donna and talk things through, but it all went terribly wrong.

Emily was startled by the call. “Mom . . . where are you?”

“Your dad is going to leave us again.... She’s pregnant.. . .”

Emily couldn’t understand what her mother was saying because Gail was so frantic, crying and talking in quick breaths. Before she left to go out with friends earlier that morning, Emily had heard Donna was in town and that her mother and father were going to meet Donna. But Emily was under the impression “that my father was going there to tell Donna it was over.” Emily had even suggested that her father take her with him instead of her mother. “Mom’s been through enough, Dad. I will tell Donna to leave us alone,” Emily had suggested.

“Mom, what’s going on? Slow down,” Emily said, trying to calm Gail. It sounded like Gail was outside somewhere.

Gail mentioned the hotel. She said she was walking home. Emily realized then that they had gone through with the meeting and something terrible had happened.

“I’ll be right there, Mom.”

Emily got her things together and took off.

“But I decided,” Emily said later, “right then and there, I was going to go to the hotel and have a confrontation in person with Donna.”

Emily was tired of this. Now her father and Donna were involving her mother. It was time, Emily figured, to get in Donna’s face and tell her to back the hell off.
