Half way into the next day, the funeral for Danny's Granddad had taken place and they were at the wake. It was 3:30pm.
Tulisa: Come on Dan, you have to eat something?
Danny: I don't want anything. If I did, I'd eat it.
Danny's Mum: Oi, don't take it out on her! She's trying to help! She's right, you have to keep your strength up!
Danny: *shouting* WHY WON'T ANY OF YOU UNDERSTAND? I DO NOT WANT ANY FUCKING FOOD! FUCK OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE, THE LOT OF YOU!
Tulisa: Wow, erm that's us told then.
Danny's Mum: He'll calm down, you'll see that.
Tulisa: All I was trying to do is help him.
Danny's Mum: I know.
Danny's Dad: Where's he gone?
Danny's Mum: Didn't you hear him shouting?
Danny's Dad: No.
Danny's Mum: He shouted at poor Tulisa who was trying to help him and get him to eat something.
Danny's Dad: He'll calm down, he'll be fine.
Tulisa: I've never known him like that though.
Danny's Mum: I must admit, it does take a lot for him to get like this.
Tulisa: I'm gonna go and look for him. I need to know he hasn't done anything stupid.
Danny's Mum: Do you want me to come?
Tulisa: No, I'll let you know if I see him.
Danny's Mum: Alright then Tulisa.
An hour or so later, she finds him sat in the graveyard by himself. He's sat on the ground crying.
Tulisa: Danny?
Danny: Just leave me alone.
Tulisa: I just wanna help.
Danny; Yeah and you can do that by leaving me alone.
Tulisa: I know what it's like you know.
Danny: What, what's like?
Tulisa: When you lose someone you love and care about.
Danny: No you don't. You haven''t got the slightest idea.
Tulisa: My uncle died a few years back.
Danny: And?
Tulisa: He was more like my Dad so don't you dare think I haven't got a clue what the hell you're going through!
Danny: You OK?
Tulisa: Yeah. It still affects me but I try not to let it get to me too much.
Danny: How did you cope with it?
Tulisa: By being me and shutting everyone off for a few weeks.
Danny: Does it ever get any easier?
Tulisa: No, you learn to live with it but it doesn't make it any easier.
