Heart's pov. 
I found myself on the beach sitted on a bench .
"So for how long are you gonna get upset  "said a familiar voice I havent had in years .
"Eleanor"Isaid . She sat next to me she was in a pink dress.
"Did I ever tell you why I was always on drugs getting high?she asked .
"No."I said .
"Its because I was angry at myself , angry at the world , my mom was a crackwhore and my dad was a drunk , I hated my family when I found out who they were ,   in the end I lost my life "she said .
"Why are you telling me this "I asked .
"Its because i  dont want you to end up like me , I know you are angry at yourself ,  but just know this ,I am so proud to have a friend like you for all the things you do for Mighty that I didnt  thank you Heart . Dont give up on her , she loves you more than she would love me and above all you are a strong woman who stood up for me countless times , dont forget who you are Love "she said .
She made me feel so better the anger and sadness faded  , instead I felt happy.
"Thanks Eleanor ."I said .
"I should be the one thanking you , you are beautiful , powerful and the best mother  thank you Heart ."she said .
I hugged her . 
"Thank you Eleanor , I feel much better "I said .
"They are all waiting for you Love , "She said . I saw drift further and further .
I opened my eyes , I realised I was in the hospital , On the couch sat Mrs Leo Tyrone's mom , Mighty slept in her laps , Nate was asleep on the rocking chair , still dont know what a rocking chair is doing there , and looking down on the bed to my right side Tryone's head rested holding my hand . They all came to be with me . I stroked his soft hair , he moved a little before he woke up ,
His eyes looked up at me I smiled at him .
"Hey , "he said . Mighty woke up too she walked up to me .
"Mommy "she said. I embraced her  she laid her head on my chest .
The doctor walked into ran some tests on me . I was quite surprised to see Nate and their mom , and am eager to know how I got here .
They woke up and were glad to see how I was feeling ,  I am grateful they came , as well as how sweet they have been to my daughter.  Mrs Leo left with Mighty and Nate to buy her something to eat ,I was alone with Tyrone .
" thanks for taking care of her , I dont know how you found me but am grateful " I said .
" Mighty called me and said you were not waking up , she was really crying , am more than willing to help "he said .
"I cant thank you enough "I said .  He looked into my eyes , there was an awkward silence .
"What did the doctor say?"I asked .
He signed .
"You are depressed and very stressed very worrying as your body was under a lot of pressure."he said sadly .  Well hes right am so stressed and depressed, about something i fear would happen soon .
" if  I may ask ? Is what i did the reason why you are very depressed and stressed ?"he asked , I looked at him , well he did scare me but that didnt really add to my stress , over ther few months , I have been recieving notifications from the Child services ,   they had a look at my history records , and did find some shit . I was  expelled from the orphanage after standing up for my best friend  Mighty's biological mom when she was pregnant , and her drugs lifestyle with the father of Mighty , and for now am single not married trying to make ends meet , so according to them  they believe I was also using drugs with Eleanor and Austin since I lived with them , I was a brat in the orphanage ,  I dont have experience with kids as I have none of my own ,and worst of all am not finacially stable to take care of Mighty . Its been a battle to fight against the Child services , their assumptions are ridiculous going to court didnt help much , I am able to provide for her , its just a plot to sell her off to some family that will exploit her , countless times Eleanor appeared in my dreams and begged me to never let them take Mighty away , I will never let them take her , but each day I live with fear they could take her away , that fear was about to be a reality when they came to my apartment to look for Mighty luckily I had taken her for her ballet classes , the nanny did inform me they came and it broke me to pieces  any day they could march up to my apartment  and take my daughter forever . It really made me stressed out and so depressed just thinking how thinhs would be without her , I took care of her the minute she popped out of Eleanor's vagina , even when Eleanor neglected her  at just two weeks old for drugs I took care of her , going to work , walking long distances to save on fare , carrying her , soothing her to sleep , sexually assaulted  by men while trying to make money to buy her daipers and babyfood as well as clothes , all because I love her so much .
"No its not about what you did , its just they ... nevermind" I said , I didnt want to involve him into my shit  I will find a way to fight my daughter. He held my hand and lifted up my chin to look into his blue eyes.
" please tell me I can help"he said .
"No ..its nothing .."I said , luckily Mighty walked in I smiled at her she held my hand ,
"I love you mommy "she said .
"I love you too honey "I said .
I was discharged from the hospital , Mighty had made a close connection with the Leo's especially Mrs Leo  , I promised to bring her for a visit very soon  to Mrs Leo's mansion .
Tryone drove us home , I was feeling well but my fear was taking over me ,  I hadnt told Tyrone about what would happen any day or time when those bitches would walk up to my door and take Mighty . I remember having the conversation with Mighty's nanny about it.
" have you considered all your options ?"she asked.
"Yea I have , I took them to court presented my drug tests, all reciepts of how much I have invested  , my income , health record , but they somehow played the system and got their way."I said angrily .
"Well what of the other option, have you thought about it?"She asked . Thats by far unrealistic
"No not at all its by far impossible I havent thought about it, it may affect Mighty  badly , she's not open to changes  that much "I said.
"Well just think about it "she said .  I looked at Tyrone who was driving his eyes on the road . Mighty was playing a game on his Ipad .
