BASIL eventually came back into the room, to water the plants he had in there.

"K-KEL left..."

SUNNY didn't care, that didn't mean he had to leave too. He had the rest of the afternoon.

There wasn't much to do though.. Until he heard someone knock on the front door.

Although that have him something to do, if that was KEL he swears to go-

"S-SUNNY, could you get t-that?"

He nodded, even though it probably wasn't noticed, and he walked to the front door.

He grabbed the doorknob and turned it, obviously opening the door, what else would it do?

It was AUBREY...

SUNNY wasn't really happy to see her, but let her in anyways.

"Uhm... Hi SUNNY... Could I talk to BASIL?.. Please?.."

SUNNY nodded before leaving to get the flower boy.

BASIL's head turned to him as he entered the room.

"Um.. Who was it?.."

SUNNY just pointed to the hallway. BASIL could take a hint, right?

"Oh, uhm.. Uh... That doesn't really help.."

It wasn't long before SUNNY lost his patience and grabbed BASIL's arm, dragging him to the living room, ignoring BASIL's protesting.

He immediately went silent after seeing AUBREY, then tried to exit the room, but with SUNNY holding onto his arm, there was no chance of him leaving.

SUNNY proceeded to drag BASIL to AUBREY.

BASIL just stood there, refusing to sit down. Until SUNNY practically forced him to, then sat beside him.

There was an awkward silence, definitely an elephant in the room..

AUBREY curled her hair around her finger, a thing she did when she was stressed.

"Soo.. Uhm.. Listen BASIL... I'm sorry.. About.. Earlier.."

"Ar-"

"No.. I'm not being forced into saying this.. I mean it.. I'm sorry about all the bullying.. I was at home when I was thinking about how I want to be nothing like my mother..."

She sighed before continuing, "But I realized if I held a grudge against you and SUNNY.. I would be no better than her.."

Even though noticeably uncomfortable, BASIL politely smiled, "It's okay.. I forgive you.."

"No it's not okay!! I pushed you into a lake, almost drowning you, and then proceeded to put the blame on you!!"

"No, no, it is okay... I-i deserved it.. I honestly had it coming.."

SUNNY always saw right through BASIL, even though he was smiling, he was definitely paranoid. And knowing AUBREY, she was even more stressed.

"See!? You're not even listening! You're just making it seem like it was your fault!"

AUBREY got up angrily, "You're just trying to guilt trip me, aren't you?!"

"No, i-"

"You are!! I may have been wrong in hating SUNNY, but I was right in hating you!"

She left the house, slamming the door loudly.

SUNNY noticed how BASIL seemed to have sunken into a pool of self-pity.

The boy knew he'd have to cheer BASIL up.
