Tophat's POV:
I rushed my way to Sketchpad's house, going to tell him. Once I made it there. The lights were off. He wasn't there?! Oh no.
"Behind you" Someone said.
"Huh? AHH!" I screamed. It was a person with a chainsaw.
I rushed to turn on the light. He didn't even budge until the lights came on.
"BOO!" He laughed afterwards.
"Sketchpad don't do that again! You scared the hell out of me!"
"Heh. Sorry."
That was weird. He was being super fun and silly. He used to be so blank and silent the last couple of days. We both went sit on sketchpad's couch and talked.
"So how was your morning?"
"It's actually pretty good!" He said while smiling.
"So I heard there was a murder at your work place. Did you have something to do with that?" I asked
His face went from happy to complete horror.
"Umm are you ok?"
"Yes but there was something I didn't tell you. Did you notice that I was feeling down these last couple of days?"
He knew exactly what I was about to ask him!
"Yes I did. What was the problem anyways?"
"Well my old colleagues, they were starting to be complete jerks to me outside of work. They told me to kill myself and jump off a bridge. I tried my hardest to ignore them, but they gotten advantage of me. I even thought of doing it. That's why I was depressed but ever since the murder, I've been feeling better. I was sad because you know, they were my colleagues, but it's better now because you know, they're gone."
I couldn't notice but my eyes were getting watery. Poor guy.
"I'm sorry. I-"
"No, it's ok. It's nice for you to vent to me. It makes me feel like a true friend to you, you know?"
"Yeah.."
"So, I'm curious. Hows it been with the speaker stuff?"
"I still miss him. A whole lot actually. He was one of the only people who actually y'know, likes me.
"Oh.. Well just letting you know, Me and folder are your friends too!"
"Yeah you are right."
"Hey, maybe you shouldn't go to your old workplace tomorrow, you know?"
"Yeah, you have a point. Also can I live with you for a bit. I'm scared that the murderer will hunt me down."
"Ok sketchpad, ok."
We went over to my place and Sketchpad had the rest of my fries from Big Juicy Burgers. We ate at the local pizza place for dinner and went to bed. But something bad happened the next day...
