This is the bit where it gets g o o d .

_ Bandu _
Staring at my phone eagerly I waited for something to happen...It was one of those days where everything was quiet. I wondered if Expunged was awake. I got up and opened the door hesitantly. I peered around the door, Expunged's room was shut. Good. I walked to the kitchen, a sharp pain of guilt in my chest. Maybe if I wasn't out so late expunged wouldn't have...never mind. I made some cereal before hearing a door creak open. Flinching, I turned and looked at the door. Expunged was stood in the doorway, staring right back at me. I should probably say I'm sorry, but I had no words. No clue what to say. Expunged didn't seem to move either. We were just stood there. The silence was broken by a ring at the door. I immediately broke eye contact to go get it. Turning the knob, I spotted... Dave? What was he doing here...
"Hello Bandu - can we talk in private...?" Dave said, before smiling awkwardly at me.
"Sure!"

_Dave_
Okay. So Disruption showed me Bandu's text and he just sent me to see what had happened - right, like I'm a therapist. Bandu and Expunged have...a questionable relationship. I cant really describe it. Let's just say, Expunged is probably the one who needs to change his mindset about Bandu. Yes he can be clingy and maybe annoying, but he tries hard to be a good brother to him. I respect that about Bandu.
"Anyways...Disruption sent me."
"Oh - Is is because of the text I sent??"
"Yeaaahh- he showed me it but he told me to go and see if you were okay in person."
"I get it - well expunged and I just fell out again, he didn't want me to always be out so late." I realised, at that second, that Expunged, Bandu's  brother, was controlling.
"Bandu...your 20?"
"That's what I said! I can take care of myself, I don't need him to always tell at me."
"Bandu - have you ever thought that...He might be controlling you?"
I kid you not, Bandu began tearing up.
