When everyone got to Kevin's house, he took out his keys when they noticed his front door was slightly ajar and the lock was broken.

"Someone broke in while we were gone?" Scott asked, concerned.

"Don't worry, I think we know the person that did this." Kevin said after studying the broken lock.

He led them inside and found a note on the counter, along with some money. Kevin picked it up and read it. Three messy sentences were written down, each only three words long.

'Sorry about door.'

'Money to fix.'

'Don't bother me.'

He looked in the living room and saw Mitch laying face down on the couch, asleep, cuddling a pillow.

"At least we know nothing was stolen." Kirstie offered as Kevin counted the money.

"Yeah... Come on, we shouldn't bother him."

"What should we do today?"

"Well, we still haven't had lunch yet. We could go out to eat and go from there."

They agreed and silently left again, making sure to not wake Mitch up. The group spent the rest of the day out and about, and when they came back, Mitch was no longer on the couch. Since it was late, everyone said goodnight to each other and went to sleep.

No one saw Mitch again until the next day. He came out of his room to use the bathroom a few hours after lunch, and Avi and Kirstie stared at him from the living room.

"What?" He asked them.

"Nothing, it's just... we haven't seen you in a while." Avi said, and Mitch looked confused.

"What are you talking about? It's only been a few hours."

"Uh, Mitch? Do you know what time it is?" Kirstie questioned.

Mitch glanced at the clock Kevin had mounted on his wall and checked the time.

"It's eight thirty-seven. I went to sleep just after three. It's only been a few hours." He repeated.

"Mitch you went to sleep around three, yesterday."

"What? No. What day is it?"

"It's Thursday." Avi told him.

"No, today is Wednesday."

"No, yesterday was Wednesday. Today is Thursday."

"Wait, so you're telling me that I basically slept for," Mitch paused to count his fingers. "Twenty nine hours?!"

"Uh, yeah it looks like it."

Mitch was quiet for a few seconds, trying to process it, when he threw his head back and let out a laugh.

"Ah Merda!!! That has to be a new record for me!" He said between his laughs. Avi and Kirstie looked at each other while Mitch tried to calm himself down. "Alright, on that note, I'm going back to sleep."

"But you just woke up." Kirstie argued.

"Well yeah, but look at the clock," Mitch gestured to the clock on the wall and smirked. "It's almost my bedtime. BYE!!!~" And with that, he ran back upstairs and went to sleep again.
