*knocks*

Oh uh Hi Noah? What are you doing here

Hey Tatum, I just need some space from Laurel, you think I can stay over for a bit?

Um... sure, you can take your old room I guess... Mom, Dad! Noah's here! Come in

Oh hi sweetie, how have you been?

Could have been a bit better

Where's Laurel?

She's back at home dad

Oh- Did she not want to come?

I needed some space from her...do you mind if I sleep in my old room?

Yeah sure!

I went to my old bedroom which looked like it hadn't been touched since I moved out, that's good I guess, I took the bedroom and stayed there

*Amy and Tatum comes in the room*

Tatum: we found out what happened and we are so sorry

It's okay, it's just the reason I gave you wasn't the reason why I'm here isn't a good reason.. the actual reason I'm here is to get away from Laurel, when she came home from school she was all bruised up with a purple eye

Oh my gosh

Yeah Laurel sent me a pic mom, look

*Amy looks at Tatum's phone* oh my god, her eyes

I know...

Tatum: Who did this?

Blake's sister

Wow

Yeah I know and I couldn't stand seeing her like that

Well she went through all of this for You! So it's not fair that you left her, like who's watching her right now?

No one...

Noah! You can't do that!

but mom, I can't see her like what I showed you, I hurts me

But Noah, you think your daughter not knowing when you'll come back hurts her? What if something else bad happens, then what?

I never thought of that because she's responsible enough to take care of herself and she is for an 6 year old...

Is she home alone?

Yea

Amy: Noah! You cannot leave your daughter home alone! She's SIX for God's sake

But mom

No! I honestly think you should go back

She must be crying right now

I'll go back after a few days just please let me stay mom! Please!

After 3 days your out

3 days!?

Yes! You can stay here for 3 days but you need to go back home, I know it hurts but you have to! What if something happenes to Laurel!?

Nothing bad will happen to Laurel

Does she even know you're here?

Nope

Oh... okay then...

I put my phone on silent so I don't see any of her messages either

That's uh...

A bit harsh, look kid, I know you're upset but you took it too far
