Lucas - Riley and I have been in Texas for 3 days now and she seems a lot happier here I know that she will good days and bad days but today she seems happier today I think she wanted and needed to get away from the reminders of pain just for a little while 

Riley - hi

Lucas - hey you

he sits next to her on the porch

Lucas - are you OK

Riley - yes I just realized that I didn't cry today for the first time in a year I didn't cry or think that he wouldn't want me to be happy

Lucas - yeah

Riley - yeah why can't I do this at home

Lucas - because you are surrounded by the memories of auggie all the time and here you are not

Riley - but I carry the pain of losing him with me all the time

Lucas - true but it's different when you are  reminded of it by looking at it all it becomes even harder for you to find some healing

Riley - yeah and I think I'm ready to call our parents

Lucas - OK let's call them

Riley - OK

Riley and Lucas go call their parents

Cory and Topanga Chris and Daisy - it's them

Riley and Lucas - hello

Cory and Topanga and Chris and Daisy - are you two OK where are you

Riley and Lucas - we are OK we are looking out for each other

Cory and Topanga and Chris and Daisy - get back here now wherever you are you come home OK you come home now both of you

Everything is quiet and very still for the teenagers

They hold hands tightly

It was just still like everything else stopped at the same time

Riley and Lucas - not yet we can't come home yet OK we need to be right where we are we love you

Cory and Topanga and Chris and Daisy - we love you too

They hang up

Cory and Topanga and Chris  and Daisy - Riley Lucas

Nothing again again

Cory and Topanga and Chris and  Daisy - damn it No damn it
