"..died on Saturday..buried on Sunday.."

"What in blazes are you singing?"

"Really? You never heard of that song?"

"I don't really listen to the radio these days.."

"For shame, sir..all comics and no radio makes Tommy a..Ow!"

Another punch landed on Bradley's shoulder.

"Say another word, and you'll be having a knuckle sandwich for supper."

[Laughing sound]

"Chill, daddy-o, relax..I'm just kidding..[Laughing].."

"Sorry..I am calm..it's.." Tommy then began to scan their surroundings.

"It's just that I don't feel safe staying out here for so long..we have to make this snappy..you eh-ok with your folks?"

"Again, chill, man..you already asked that for the hundredth time..I told them that we're out looking for Jake..and Mr Hutchison..since you promised that to Melody as well.."

"Yeah..yeah..right..sorry..I'm just nervous.."

"Then why not just tell them the truth?" Bradley stopped picking the lock.

Tommy kept looking at a distant horizon.

[Sighing sound]

"Fine..just remember..this was your idea.."

"Well, technically we are searching for both of them..it's not like we lied or anything.."

"And technically, we're breaking an entry and mostly likely to get caught.." said Bradley as he continues to pick on the lock.

"Don't worry..I got that covered..trust me..Melody is not gonna come here anytime so.."

[Clicking sound]

Bradley then turns the door knob before pushing it.

"You sure bout' that, chief?" asked Bradley.

[Sighing sound]

"Come on..let's just get this over with.." said Tommy.

"After you..sir.." said Bradley sarcastically.

"Oh boy.."

The light of the day was dying out but they came prepared with their own flashlights, just in case, as they stepped into the dim hallway. Tommy suddenly stepped on something. He immediately flashes the floor with his light. Right near where he was standing was a big pile of dust on the floor.

"This place sure is dirty..don't Melody ever clean up?"

"Why can't we just switch on the lights?" asked Tommy.

"Because we just broke into someone's house, you really want people to notice that?"

"Ok, ok..I'm just asking.."

Oddly enough, some of the decorations from Halloween was still there. The weird dolls were still hanging outside his door and there was still some candy left in the bowl near the door.
