Kai:

Turning off the TV, he grabs his phone and opens the garage door. Wearing ripped jeans and an olive green shirt, he peddles his way to where Jacoby has been staying, a group home just one mile north of his house.

After knocking, a young woman no older than twenty opens the door, and with a great big smile, she asks, "What brings you here? We weren't expecting visitors."

In a shy tone, Kai replied, "Is Jacoby here?"

Sadie:

Spitting out the orange juice, Sadie grabs a towel from the kitchen just as her mother enters the room.

"You've seen it on the news, I bet." Mrs. Parker says as she helps Sadie clean up the mess she made.

Sadie takes one last paper towel just to make sure everything has been wiped up. "How'd you know?" she asks.

Fixing her dress and then her hair, Mrs. Parker grabs her keys and purse before opening the front door. "The mess you just made," she says, "There's a service at eight for him on Saturday. I'll take you if you want."

Blaire:

"Y-yeah!" Blaire replies, looking down at her own phone. "It's scary."

Before Beverly could begin talking, Mr. Bivens walks into the room angry as always. Blaire raises her hand, and Mr. Bivens calls on her.

"Can I use the restroom, Mr. Bivens?" she asks.

"Yes, Blaire. You can."
