Emily
Yes I can now finally try new food and get out of my comfertzone
Emma
Yes, Emily, you need to try new food, believe me, this food is going to become your new favorite
Alexander
So Emma when are you going to break up with Shawn
Emma
Probably next month he said that he is coming for a class
Emily
Are you ready, you are not going to back up are you
Emma
No Emily I am not going to back out I am going to break up with him
Alexander
I agree with Emily I believe that Shawn is having an affair with your sister
Emily
We should set them up and leave them alone together
Emma
I think you are right I might have to do that
Alexander
right now let's eat
Emma
Emily, you should go first it is your first time trying Mexican food
Emily
Okay here goes nothing
Narrator
Emily picks up her taco and give it the first 2 bites after she finished eating the first bites she continues to eat her taco
Emma
Emily was your taco good or not
Emily
Emma, this was the best taco I have tried
Emma
See I told you
Alexander
Okay so what are we going to do with the whole situation about Shawn
Emma
I don't know
Emily
I just know that Shawn is having an affair with Madison
Alexander
Emily, you are probably right we need to come up with a plan
Emma
Yes Alexander but we need time and plan this carefully
Alexander
When is Shawn going to come to New York?
Emma
He said told me that he and Madison are coming to New York for a panel on medicine with a famous doctor and it would be a couple of months so we have time
Emily
That is enough time to come up with a plan to see if they are in a relationship
Emma
Now that I think about it I am 100% that those two have been dating since I moved to New York, Madison was happy that I was moving and that she finally got to be the only daughter
Emily
Emma, you should go home and ask your dad for your birth certificate, tell him you need it to change the address on your new ID card
Emma
What if he does not give it to me
Alexander
Well you need to look for it what if he is hiding where your mother is I don{t think that Nicole is your birth mom, you have some different I just can{t tell what it is yet
Emma
You are right but I always felt different like thier is a part of me that I still don't know
Emily
I agree with you Alexander I don't think that Nicole is Emma's biological mom she was always mean to Emma but Madison she is an angel to her
Emma
Guys what if my dad took me away from my biological mom and she is out there looking for me what if Emma is not my real name
Alexander
Emma, we believe you and you need to look for the birth certificate and see what your name is
Emily
Emma calm down these things are new to all of us, Alexander and I are going to help you in whatever we can
Emma
What if I have a loving family, what is my mother's name
Alexander
What if your mom is famous, I always taught that you were from Europe you always had such cute clothes when we were all in Elementary school
Emma
What if you are right Alexander, I have a necklace that I never wear because it looks expensive and it has different initials than my name
Emily
Emma, that is where we can start looking, what are the initials
Narrator
Emily used Emma's computer to start typing all the things that Emma has been saying Alexander keeps asking Emma questions and she begins to wonder if her dad has been telling Emma the truth all these years.
Emma
The initials are A.E.A.M but I could never figure them out
Alexander
What if those initials are your real name
Emily
That is a great place to start, who do we figure out your real name then
Emma
I think that the E is for Emma if I am not wrong but the other initials for
Alexander
What if Emma is your middle name and the A is for your dad's last name
Emily
So it is A. Emma Arrellano. M
Alexander
We are getting somewhere so now we need to know what the other two initials are
Emma
So I could have two names and two last names
Alexander
What I research is that many families in Europe use two names and two last names, but most people used thier first name and thier dad's last name
Emily
So, Emma, has another name and her dad changed her name when she came to the United States
Emma
So what you guys are telling me is that I just to live in Europe
Alexander
Yes, that is all we know
Emily
Emma do you remember anything else from your childhood or anything before coming to the United States
Emma
Well, I remembered that the view from my window I could see a tall figure but light would light up when it was dark and many people would take pictures with it
Alexander
Are you telling me that you could see the Eiffel tower from your room?
Emma
Yeah, why?
Emily
Emma, you know what you just told us?
Emma
Yes I could see the Eiffel Tower from my room
Alexander
Emma you just to live in Paris, France
Emma
How could that be possible?
Emily
Yes, Emma you just to live thier and your house was probably close to the Eiffel tower
Emma
You guys are telling me that I am from Europe, especially from my favorite place
Alexander
Yes, Emma, that is why you always wanted to go visit Paris
Emma
So that means that I had another life where my mom did love me and not this life that my dad choose for me
Emily
Emma you don{t know why your dad decided to take you away from your mom
Alexander
One thing we are sure of is that Nicole is not your mom
Emma
that means that Madison is not my biological sister but my half-sister
Emily
Yes, that means that you can break up with Shawn now
Emma
You are right Emily, I am going to break up with him when he comes to New York
Alexander
Emily, how did you enjoy your food?
Emily
It was really good it has become my second favorite food
Emma
Guys what time is it
Alexander
It is 11:30 pm why
Emily
Alexander, we have been trying to figure out Emma's true identity that we forgot we have work tomorrow
Emma
Yeah it is too late we should be sleeping already
Alexander
relax girls I usually sleep at midnight and wake up early so let's continue with our investigation
Emily
Emma remembered when you told us about your dreams that a woman would read you bedtime stories
Emma
Yeah and I told my dad he told me it was my immigration but it was not it was my mom reading my bedtime stories
Alexander
What else do you remember?
Emma
Not much I think parts of my memories are coming back
Emily
You will get all your memories back
Alexander
Guys, it is already 12:30 am we need to go to sleep
Emma
Guys I need to take a shower and removed my makeup
Alexander

Emma

(**Emma's text conversation with Christopher**)
Christopher
Emma are you at your apartment
Emma
No, I am at Alexander's house why?
Christopher
Why are you staying at his house, I taught that you were only having dinner at his house
Emma
I did tell you that I was staying at his house
Christopher
That is what I am telling you that I know that you are cheating on me with Alexander
Emma
Believe whatever you want, I don't want to start another relationship like the one I have
Christopher
I want to believe you but you are always with Alexander and Emily it is like you can't do anything without them
Emma
To think I was going to break up with Shawn so I could be with you, either way, I am still breaking up with you and Shawn I don't need any more toxic people in my life goodbye Christopher
Christopher
You were going to break up with Shawn to be with me
Christopher
I am sorry baby this is my first serious relationship and I am still trying to see if you aren't going to be like the girls I have been with
Emma
