"You didn't call."
"No. I told you I wouldn't." He pried off the cover to check the battery fluid.
"I miss the way it was before."
He shook his head. "We were so shallow. There was nothing but sex between us."
"I know." She brushed away tears and looked up to the sky, tipping her head back. "It was easier." She shook her head. "I..." She sighed. "I was wondering...ah...I'm having a difficult time dealing with..." She pressed her hand against her forehead, pain in the lines of her face. "With our abortion."
Ten years ago Jacob paid for Tammy's abortion. On a sunny, summer day, as Jacob works on the family van and his thirteen-year-old son Alexander mows the lawn, Tammy pays Jacob a visit. Desperate for any help, she is suffering severely from post-abortion stress syndrome.
With Jacob and his family's help, Tammy begins to heal emotionally. Her brother Lance, who she hasn't seen for more than a dozen years, returns. As the siblings reconnect, Lance tells his own story of his time away from Omaha.
As new leaves form and grow, so do the new relationships Tammy develops. Find out how Tammy's journey of recovery leads to surprising friendships and life-changing decisions in New Leaves are Green.
