Driving back home after dinner, I turn to Regina and say, "Oh I forgot to tell you, you made that woman cry this afternoon."  She looks confused. "What woman?"  "The woman that came to pick up my furniture donation. You should have seen her face when she opened the envelope. I had no idea why she looked like a deer in headlights till she showed me the check.  That was really great of you Regina". "From what you told me it's a good organization so I wanted to help". "That was a lot of money. Your amazing Regina".  "My dad was always holding fundraisers for charity. He taught me to help out if I am able to, so I did". "You have a great heart babe". I pull in the driveway right next to her car, and I walk around to open Reginas door. "You know Emma, you don't have to open my door every time". "I know. But I like to". I kiss her and we walk hand in hand into our home. A little while later we are sitting on the couch, Regina says "Why don't we go downstairs and see if we can figure out how we should decorate The Emma Cave".  "Really , you wanna go do that?"   "Sure. We can write some things down of where everything should go, figure out what kind of furniture to get, and you said you wanted to get a few more exercise machines right?"  I nod and she grabs my hand "Lets go". I follow her to her office and she gets a note pad and a pen. The next few hours flew by as we made plans for the room. Now we are picking out furniture on the internet. We got a nice entertainment center to go right under my wall mounted 70 inch smart tv. She's even letting me have a bar in there and the one I'm ordering is awesome. It's made of mahogany wood and it kinda looks like a wooden canopy. It has four posts to it. The back that goes against the wall has shelves for bottles and the front inside part has spots for all the different kind of glasses and mixing cups and utensils, and it comes with four stools. "Gina. Look at this friggin' thing babe. It's gonna look so good in the corner once it's all set up". She shakes her head and says "You are so cute my love. You are acting just like an over excited child".  "That's because I am. Excited I mean". That makes her laugh out loud. We pick out two more exercise machines and call it a night. Regina wouldn't let me giver her any money for all we ordered. I was a little bothered by that, but she said she wanted to do this as a gift for me and I couldn't get her to budge. I can't believe she's getting me my Emma Cave. Regina looks at the time and says, "Goodness, Emma it's after midnight. What do say we go up to our bedroom and go to sleep together for the first time in our home". A tear instantly falls from my eye. Regina puts her hand on my face and brushes it away. "Emma my love what is it?"  I shake my head. "Please tell me sweetheart".  "I'm so happy Regina. I can't even begin to explain how much you mean to me and how much you have brought to my life. Even after I was adopted by the Nolan's and things started looking up for me, I never ever thought I could be so happy. I always thought because of the way I was born, that's why no families ever wanted to keep me, so there would be no way a woman would want me either". "Oh Emma. I'm sorry you had to go through everything you did, but my love look at you, you persevered against everything that was put on you. You are so strong my love. You have a wonderful heart. Look what you did for all those families just by donating all your furniture. You could have sold it to thrift shops or an online site, but you did the right thing, and since I've met you that's all you've ever done. Believe in yourself Emma. Believe that you deserve happiness". I nod, but I'm finding it hard to make words. I start to settle down and Regina says again. "Are you ready to go up to our bedroom and fall asleep for the first time in our home Emma?" I mumble out "Yes please". She takes my hand and leads the way, and for some reason I have the best sleep I think I've ever had.
