Hey Mitch 😊 What's up?

To Kirstie💁💜:
Uh, can I come over?

From Kirstie💁💜:
Why?

To Kirstie💁💜:
Sorry, don't worry about it.

(5:56pm)
From Kirstie💁💜:
No! Um, yeah you can come over but you have to be quiet and go round the back.

From Kirstie💁💜:
See you when you get here.

Mitch continued his walk away from the therapy building for the next 15 minutes until he arrived at the address Kirstie texted him. He glances around at the slightly overgrown grass before doing as she wished and walks around the back of the house, finding a small backyard.

"Who the fuck are you?" A man roars and Mitch jumps, spinning to see a slightly overweight man sitting on a patio.

Mitch can't answer though and just stands there, fidgeting with his fingers.

"I asked you a question! Who the fuck are you?" The man stands up and Mitch takes a step back.

"Dad! It's my friend!" Kirstie explodes out the back door and goes to grab her father's arm but quickly retracts her hand.

"Why is he here? I don't remember you asking or anything!" The man turns his attention to Kirstie and she shrinks in fear. "Answer me!"

"I'm sorry..." She whimpers. "He- he messaged me and wanted to know if he could come over so I invited him..."

Mitch slowly walks back out of the property. He winces as he hears a small cry of pain from his best friend.

All he does is cause pain.
