70: INT. REHAB CENTER DAY FADE IN:
One week later. Steven is now in rehab.
RACHAEL: (comes in with the girls)
MIA: Daddy! (runs to Steven and hugs him tightly)
STEVEN: (smiles and picks her up) Hey baby. (puts her down and turns to Rachael) Hi. (kisses her cheek)
RACHAEL: Hi. (both sit down) How are you doing?
STEVEN: Better... Rach, I know there is nothing I can say to make up for what I've done... I'm sorry I've hurt you, I don't deserve you.
RACHAEL: (sighs) (takes his hands) Steven... (tears well up in her eyes) I... (sniffles) I've filed for divorce.
STEVEN: (sighs)
RACHAEL: (on the verge of tears) I'm sorry... I just couldn't do it anymore.
STEVEN: What are you sorry for? I don't blame you. I was a real asshole.
RACHAEL: I just want you to know one thing... I will always love you. If you ever need anything, just give me a call.
STEVEN: (nods) I will. And if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask me.
RACHAEL: (nods softly) I will.
STEVEN: (gets up and embraces her tightly)
RACHAEL: (to herself) "Steven pulled me in for a loving hug. Something I knew I would probably never experience again, and I hated to see it end."
STEVEN: (releases her)
RACHAEL: (bites her lip) Well, I guess I should go.
STEVEN: Yeah... Take care of yourself. (hugs her tightly)
RACHAEL: You too... (leaves)
71: INT. JAYME'S APARTMENT NIGHT
Later that night...
JAYME: Hey Rach, how you doing?
RACHAEL: Okay I guess... The divorce went through today.
JAYME: (rubs her back gently) I'm sorry hun.
RACHAEL: (sniffles) It's for the best...
JAYME: You gonna tell Mia?
RACHAEL: (sighs) I don't want to, but I know I have to. (calls out to her) Honey? Can you come here for a second?
MIA: (comes in and hugs her) Hi Mommy!
RACHAEL: (puts her in her lap) Hi sweetheart... Mama's got something to tell you... Daddy isn't gonna be living with us anymore.
MIA: (looks down) But why?
RACHAEL: Well... Mommy and Daddy aren't getting along... It would be better if we didn't live together anymore.
MIA: Don't you love each other anymore?
RACHAEL: (bites her lip and holds back her tears) Of course we do. Don't worry, everything's gonna be okay, you'll still see Daddy all the time, ok?
MIA: Ok, can I go play now?
RACHAEL: (chuckles) Yes sweetheart. (puts her down)
JAYME: You handled that really well.
RACHAEL: Thanks... I just wish it didn't have to come to this.
JAYME: I know... Try to get some sleep.
RACHAEL: Ok, goodnight. (gets up and goes into the bedroom)
