Ms. Kim was skimming through Crews old baby book, searching his photos, acting as if he was there, in her kitchen, at that moment.

"Hey, Kim, are you okay?" Asked Mr. Brett, checking up on his wife. She began sobbing on the counter.

"No Brett. How can I be ok? How can you be okay? You act like everything is normal. It's not!" Ms. Kim scolded, closing the baby book and getting up form the counter with silence, staring at Brett.

"No no no no no. It's not like that- I'm just tryna make you feel better. It's a shame we don't have better security around here, right?" Brett asked, holding her in his arms.

"It is, but that's not the point Brett! He's missing! Vikkstar's searched everywhere! He can't find any sight of him! He's gone." Ms. Kim sulked, her tears falling to the floor making mini puddles

"I know but I was just thinking-" Mr. Brett was stopped short, being pushed away by Ms. Kim.

"Stop it Brett! Stop it about the stupid insurance money! I know about it Brett! You're just here for the insurance money! Look at me in the eyes and say it! Talk about the damn insurance money!" She screamed, holding up a law firm ad she had obtained from his drawer.

"Yeah, and I don't regret a thing." He scoffed, going to his room to pack his bags for a getaway.

"Where are you going now Brett?" She questioned, following him to there room where he pulling out a large suitcase and opened his drawer. "Oh don't you dare-"

"What're you gonna do Kim? Stop me? I'm leaving, might as well find a law firm for divorce as well. Enjoy your filthy dream of finding our dead son." With that he dumped all his stuff into his suitcase, began pulling out all drawer stuff, such as extra glasses and stuff like that. "And find a new house. I bought this."
