Poor grandma gets a cheap old ring as a gift, and the girl makes fun of her. She throws it away, and it opens.

beside her and grabbed her hand. Dad will go to jail if we dont pay.
Oh Emma. Im sorry but I cant help you Martha shook her head. I dont have that kind of money.
Yes you can Gran. Please Emma gulped. If we sell the bakery we will have more than enough.
Marthas eyes flared. My bakery? Its all I have Emma. Its my lifes work. I cant sell it.
Gran! Emma cried. Its about Dad! Do you want him to rot in prison?
No honey. But I just cant sell it. How would I live after? Martha continued her voice becoming firm. Your father will certainly not support me. So no Emma. I will not sell.
Emma pushed up from the couch angry fat tears falling from her eyes as her emotions got out of control. If you dont help us Ill never talk to you again. How can you abandon your family? I HATE YOU! she ranted screamed and cried.

Im very sorry maam he said. Your fatherI dont know how to say this buthe died late last night in his cell. It was a heart attack. He passed quickly.

Emma! Emma! Dylans voice snapped Emma out of her thoughts.
Hmm what? she said blinking rapidly and realizing she had hurt herself holding such a tight fist around the jewelry box.
