after vivianne had calmed down, she walked back downstairs with ryder, the two of them hearing the tv playing loudly in the living room. when they made it downstairs, they saw james and luke sat down on the sofa, watching a football game and eating pizza.

vivianne looked around for her mom, hoping she wasn't mad at her. but she couldn't see her anywhere, and she frowned, thinking that she hated her now.

"hey, ryder, come over here!" luke called his son over, noticing him standing next to vivianne.

"yeah, in a minute, dad," ryder smiled before looking down at vivianne, his face softening as he stared at the girl, "you feeling okay now?".

"yeah, yeah, i'm okay," she told him. ryder gave vivianne's shoulder a small, gentle squeeze, and she looked over to her dad who was yelling at the tv, getting pissed at one of the players who was making his favourite team lose, and luke just laughed, since he was going for the other team, "um, dad?".

"what?!" he grumbled, focused on the tv.

"where's mom?".

"i don't fucking know! i think she went outside the back of the house!" he yelled, not looking at his daughter once, "can you tell her to come inside? she's been out there for a while".

"mhm, sure," she mumbled, and she walked over to the back of the house while ryder walked into the living room, sitting down on the armchair and watching the tv. vivianne heard her father continue yelling at the tv, and luke continuing to laugh at him. vivianne just continued walking to the back, and she saw the glass sliding door, the riley girl looking through it. it was dark outside, and she looked around, hoping she'd see her mom. she couldn't see her, so she opened the sliding door and stepped outside, wrapping her arms around herself because of the breeze. she furrowed her eyebrows, only seeing the huge pool at the back of the house, the lights under the water turned on.

she started to smell some smoke near her, and she looked over to her right. she saw her mom sat down on a chair, staring at the pool in front of her and smoking a cigarette. vivianne blinked, staring at her for a moment, a small frown on her face. sophie didn't say anything, she didn't even look at vivianne, but she knew she was there.

vivianne decided to give her mom some space, and she was about to go back inside.

"vivianne," sophie spoke up, and the girl froze, looking back at her mom. sophie still didn't look at her, keeping her eyes on the huge pool, "come over here".

vivianne gulped, fiddling with her fingers as she stood there for a moment, not knowing what to do or say. but when sophie finally looked at her, she walked over to her, slowly sitting down on the chair beside her and looking at the swimming pool in front of them. it was silent again, and they could hear the boys talking inside the house, well, only james and luke screaming at the tv, ryder wasn't saying anything.
