The funeral of Brandon and Henry's mom was devastating.
Their dad, nor Alexia came.
They don't even know she died.
So, after the funeral, Brandon changed forever.
He was so mean, and had a fucked up attitude.
It was to the point Brandon and Henry got in physical fights.
Often.
But, Henry was starting to miss Alexia.
Alot.
And one of the reasons why he thought Brandon changed so much is because of Alexia.
At around 6pm, Brandon came in Henry's room.
"Henry," he said. "Do you think Alexia ran away?"
Henry thought it was very odd that Brandon even came to see him.
"Yes."
Just one word.
Henry knew he couldn't keep this secret for long.
Brandon would find out someday.
"Where else would've happened?"
"She could have ran away with dad." Brandon suggested.
"I've actually tried calling dad and Alexia, but they didn't pick up," Henry told him.
But Brandon just stayed silent.
"I'm going to my friends house."
Brandon needed someone to talk to.
To relieve all this stress.
Then someone knocked at the door.
It was the police.
The neighbors apparently saw them home alone for 2 days now.
So after explaining what happened, the cops said sorry.
And, after that, Brandon and Henry packed their things, ready to go to a new family.
