Michael walked out the house with Alex, Tori, and Madison. But he stopped when he saw a car in his driveway. "Stay here, yeah?" He aid, walking up to it and beating on the window. The person jumped and looked up. It was Luke. He unlocked the door and stepped out.
"Luke? What at you doing here?" Michael asked. "Last night, I was on the phone with my mom and I saw your mom come in and I was going to say hi to her but then I heard yelling." He said. "I saw everything. I looked in the window." He whispered. Michael gulped. "You can't tell anyone okay? They'll send us away." Michael said. Luke shook his head. "I gotta tell. That's not right. You're too young to be raising your family." Luke aruged. Michael sighed, turning around to face his siblings and daughter. "You guys head on to school. I have to talk to Luke." They all nodded, Tori grabbing Madison and they left.
"Listen, I'll do anything. Just please don't tell the cops. Please Luke." He begged. "Mikey..." Luke trailed off, unsure. "They'll take Alex and Tori and Madison away from me! My mom will end up on the streets and so will I! I'll do anything. I'll- I'll stop making fun if you, I'll do your homework, I'll give you my lunch, anything Luke." He pleaded, tears threatening to come out.
"Fine, but I'm helping you out." Luke said, grabbing his wallet and taking out $50 dollars. "Here's my allowance."
"Luke no. This isn't right. You need it." He said, pushing the money away. "Whatever you say." Like said, "Want a ride to school?" He said. Michael shook his head. "I'll walk." Luke rolled his eyes, stepping into his car and driving off.
