I'm Sorry (SeptiPlier)

'I didn't want to leave our family, I had to leave to protect our family'

That was the note Mark saw on the side of his bed when he woke up that morning. His tears hand fallen out uncontrollably with the sounds of his son coming in the room.

"Pa, are you ok?" Billy spoke out.

"Where's Dad, Pa?" Tim asked with worry in his eyes.

"I....i don't know."

That was 5 years ago. 5 years since he found the same note he was looking at right now. No one knew where or why he left.

Mark was recording a video, knowing that his fans would be worried. He didn't upload yesterday, or the day before that.

"- So for now, I'll just take a break. But don't worry, I'll be back in a week. Hopefully I can feel better after. Thank you guys for watching, link to the game will be in the description below, and I will see you...in the next video. Bye bye." Mark waved to the camera, before stopping the recording.

"Sigh....i miss you Jack." He sighed at the picture on his desk. It was a picture of Jack, carrying Tim on his back while Billy was on his side, holding Jacks hand. Mark was in the bottem left corner, since he was carrying the camera.

He stared at the photo for a few seconds, remembering that great moment before his phone vibrated on the table.

"Hello, Mark Fishbach speaking?"

*Hello Mark, this is principles Ginger*

"Billy, this is the fifth time you've been sent to the principles office this week. The fifth time!! This isn't good." Mark growled at his 17 year old son, Billy. They were in the car on the way to Pick up little Tim from his school.

"Well what was I gonna do?! Let them beat up Jessica? I wasn't gonna let them hurt her!" Billy stated.

"Looks, I understand that you were protecting her, but doing something like that is not gonna solve anything."

" I know it's just...Dad always told us to protect the ones that are getting hurt and- " Mark pushed the and had a sudden stop at a red lights.

"Whoa...Pa are you ok?!" Billy asked him with a worried look on his face. Mark had sworn he just saw Jack walking across the road when Billy mentioned 'Dad'.

"Pa?" He heard Billy who snapped him out of his thoughts. His gaze now looking at a lady crossing the road.

"I'm....I'm ok..we'll talk about this later. For now, let's just get Tim."

Mark was waiting for the school bell to ring while Billy was waiting in the car. The sun was about to go down to make a beautiful sunset in the distance soon and Mark was waiting to see it again.

The sunset always reminded him of Jack. He would always see Jack sneaking out of the bedroom window to sit on the roof to watch. Seeing his smile in the cool sun would fill Marks heart up with bright and happy feelings.

His memory was cut off by a child jumping up and down.

"Hi Daddy!" Tim said happily.

"Hey there, my little biscuit. How are you?"

"I'm happy." He giggled. Mark had noticed a box-like object in his hands, but he didn't think much of it.

"Welp. Let's get home and have dinner, okay?" He asked.

"Okay Papa!"

Welp, that's it for this chapter. I wonder where Jack went....maybe he was..taken?

Ka ki te ano.
