"About time you called me. I miss you. What's up?" Liz asked."You know I've been helping out at SoHam First, right?""Yes.""Well, they don't want me back. I don't fit in with their style of worship,"Emmy said with some bitterness."I thought you were only filing in over there. This is your real home.You belong here, Em. We need you.""Ha! Riordan doesn't need me. He says he has lots of singers.""Emmy, everyone can sing. It's just a matter of making a noise.But you have a special gift. You have a beautiful voice, and you know how to help people worship. We are missing that right now.""What do you mean? Riordan and Sadie know how to worship.""Yes, they are very talented, but I've noticed the church doesn't have the same spark without you there. The band and singers can do a perfect job, but if the spirit isn't there, it doesn't work. We need you. Please come back, Em!" Liz waited for an answer."Em, are you crying?"Emmy nodded."We would be all right if you never made another dime from the band," Emmy said."We could cut back on expenses.""I could get a job teaching music.""I could get my education degree and teach school."Kenny laughed. "Who are we kidding, Em.My dream has always been to be a rock star.""I know," Emmy's eyes sparkled.
