12:34 am!
at the orlando residence.

johnny started hearing his parents fighting again. this was something he was used to, which created his bad, rude attitude with certain people.

he began hearing breaking of glass and wine spilling, frightening him from his room. lauren didn't know much of them fighting, but she had caught them once and that scarred her for life. usually, johnny would be the only one able to hear them fighting.

he went out of his room, and peeked.

he hesitated to call the police, yet again. he knew that if he called the police, his dad would be able to bale out because of his wealth with his old business. but if he didn't call the police, he, his mom, and soon lauren would continue to suffer from the abuse. nobody noticed has ever johnny's horrible wounds.

he was worried that lauren would begin to get hurt too, although she hasn't because she didn't almost call the police, unlike johnny and meredith, which is why they have been abused.

"p-please, stop," meredith begged as blood came out of her mouth.

"you better try not to call them again." dale said, letting go of her hair as she fell back, unconscious.

dale looked around, suddenly noticing johnny spying on them. dale chased johnny and he attempted to run back to his room, but dale had already grabbed him.

"don't call them." dale spoke grabbing johnny's wrist. johnny nodded repeatedly and went back to his room.

all he could think about was how kenzie could get involved.
