In a cabinet, Joseph say

Joe - Katherine please stop crying now

Kate - I should have listened to him and not sent Michael here. (crying 😢)

Joseph - Michael will be fine wherever he is

Katherine - He will be alright, right? (seeing Joseph hopefully)

Joe see Kate and just nodes his head. Michael ask

Michael - Ed do you have water?

Eddie - No (shakes his head)

Michael - My throat is so dry and I am so hungry too

Eddie opens his bag and give Michael a pack of milk powder. Michael say

Michael - No Eddie! (shakes his head firmly) Milk powder always makes me more thirsty

Eddie - I have a solution for that too so without worry have the milk powder with me

Michael nodes his head and they have the milk powder. Eddie ask

Eddie - How is your leg now?

Michael - Painful and not moveable. I think I broke it badly

Eddie - Let us hope it does not rain or unexpected and unexplainable does not happen until they find us

Michael nodes his head while sighing and breathing heavily while licking his finger ☝️. In Prince's house, in Prince's room, Prince was laying on the bed sadly and was thinking about Michael. In the living room, Dolly sits beside John and she say

Dolly - I think you should go and talk to him

John - If he needs me, he will come to me

Dolly - John, he has been like that since he came back from the camping trip.... I feel that something shouldn't have happen has happened so go and talk to him

John - Dolly, I know Prince.... He loves to be alone when he is like this.

Dolly - John just try for once

John sigh heavily and say

John - Fine but if he does not opens the door, I'm going to leave him alone

Dolly nodes her head with a smile 🙂. In Prince's room, Prince was see the photos he and Michael took together in the photobooth in the movie theater. Prince sadly smiles at Michael's smiles and silly faces. Suddenly he heard a knock on the door and Prince shout

Prince - Leave me alone

John - Prince open the door

Prince - I said leave me alone old man (irritated and annoyed tone)

John - Prince open the door my son.... Talk to your old man.... Come on Prince talk to your dad, I might can help you with your problem.... Listen if it is about me and Dolly then you have to tell me how you feel about it or is it about your girlfriend?.... Did something happen with you both?

John tries to open the door but it was locked. Few moments later, Prince opens the door and see his dad blankly for a while and let John in. Prince sits on the bed and John sits on a chair 🪑across Prince. John ask

John - Is everything ok pal?

Prince was quite for a while and breathes heavily and say

Prince - It is about Michael

John - Michael?!?! (confused 😕).... The boy who is our neighbour across the street? The boy who took care of me in the hospital?

Prince nodes his head and say

Prince - That's him.... Michael and one of my classmate Eddie are lost in the forest where we went for camping

John - I thought that you and your girlfriend had an argument about something and that's why you were upset (jokingly)

Prince - It is not funny dad (seriously).... They could be anywhere. I hope they are fine and not hurt wherever they are.

John - They will be just fine.
Just keep praying for them. Now tell me about your gf.... Is there any update in your relationship? (curiously)

Prince - Yeah.... We are fine!

John - Did you at least try?

Prince got his point and say?

Prince - Last year we lost it

John - At last you had it. How was it? (excitedly)

Prince - I am worried about my best friend here and you are asking me about my sex life (annoyed and irritated tone)

John - You can not stop your life for them. Prince everything will be just fine. You just wait and see, they will be back before the school starts

Prince - How are you and Dolly?

John - Good

Prince - Are you guys to.... (got cut off by John)

John - No! (shakes his head) Dolly and I are just having fun as she just got dumped by a cheater

Prince - So nothing serious is happening in between you both? (🤨)

John shakes his head and say

John - No.... When I could see your girlfriend? (hopefully)

Prince - When we both are ready

John - Ok!.... I hope I see her soon

John left Prince's room. Prince lay on the bed and think about Michael again. In the Jackson house, Jackie enter the house with a bag of food and shout

Jackie - Randy, Marlon, Janet and Rebbie, I'm home guys!

Rebbie - Got something to eat?

Jackie - Natasha packed some food for you guys. Any call from our parents?

Rebbie - No (shakes her head) I am sort of worried now

Marlon - I don't understand why Michael had to go somewhere else than camping grounds and he is not the rule breaker like me and Randy

Janet - He wasn't interested to go there in the first place

Randy - That also with Eddie

Jackie - I also recently noticed that Mike has been spending time with Prince after a argument with Eddie

Rebbie - That also surprises me too because they both were umseparatable no matter what happens in between them

Randy - Michael was not happy with Eddie staying with him in his room. He looks annoyed and irritated almost every day.

Marlon - In school also they rarely talk with each other. Chris also stopped talking to Eddie.

Jackie - Hhmm.... Looks like their friendship is over

Rebbie - Dad will be glad to hear this as he didn't like Eddie even a single bit

Janet - He still hates Eddie

Randy - Dad easily gets mad at Eddie whenever he gets fired from his job

Jackie - Dad has a point and his rules is a rule. Reb, are you staying here tonight? (seeing Rebbie)

Rebbie - Yeah (nodes her head) Paul is staying with the kids so I will stay here

Jackie - Keep me updated if you get any news

Rebbie nodes her head and they have their dinner.
