Phil's POV
I wake up with a groan. 5:55 AM. I shut off my alarm clock. I get out of bed and put on a robe. I admire the view of Dan from my doorway. Twenty-six years together. It's like he hasn't aged a day.
I walk down the stairs as the kids' alarm clocks simultaneously go off. On by one, each alarm stops and I hear a door open and slam.
Emma hops into a chair at the kitchen table and sits with me.
"Did you make coffee yet?" She asks.
"Single serve, remember?"
"You only bought the single serve machine because you were lazy."
"Oh, hush. Make coffee before your dad and your brother hog it."
"Fine. I didn't see Blu up yet."
"Me neither. I'll let him sleep in a bit more. He's been in a really bad place these past few days."
"Yeah."
"Go get ready for school. I'll get him up."
"Okay, Pops."
A few minutes later, I walk up the stairs and towards Blu's room. Dan's sitting on the bed with him, holding a bin for him to vomit into. Blu texts the family group chat. I take a peek at it.
Blu: Dad, I'm sorry
"It's okay, sweetie." Dan says, rubbing Blu's back. "It's not your fault, you'll be back on your medication soon."
"Hey, you two." I say.
"Make sure Emma's ready for school. We have to be at the courthouse at 10:00 sharp." Dan says.
"Okay, love you."
"Love you too."
