Later that night...
"John I don't know, I definitely will miss them we both will". Rachel's mother said to her husband. They were disagreeing on weather or not to send the kids to their grandparents' house for their safety." I know but I don't want to loose Rachel our only daughter". After two hours of arguing they finally came to an agreement.
"Fine we will send them".
"So tomorrow we will tell the kids".
"When do they leave?"
"In two days".
"Let's leave out the part about it being for their safety".The next morning...
"Rachel, Spruce, me and your father have decided that you two are going to visit your grandparents".
"Johnny never got to see the ocean, it's not fair that I get to see the ocean and he doesn't", Rachel replied.
"Well he is dead so get over it.", snapped Spruce. "Well you to should be happy that you get to". Said their father, John.
"Yes Daddy." Rachel said. "When do we leave".
"Tomorrow".
"Ok".
"I'm gonna go pack".
"Me too".
