Bill wakes up. He heads down to the kitchen where he saw his parents talking to a police officer. He didn't enter the kitchen. He wanted to hear what they were talking about.
Bill Point of View
Why is mom crying? I can't hear very well because they are talking too low. My mom screamed Georgie's name and then I knew it. They found his body. Tears slide down on my face, and I finally made the courage to enter the kitchen. My mom hugged me and I hugged her back. Dad went with the police officer to talk about Georgie and I stayed with mom.
" I am so-so so-sorry, mom. It's my fault that Georgie's how he is. How did they found him? "
" They found him without an arm. They said it looks like it was torn off. "

Bill and his parents went to the morgue to take Georgie's body and preparing it for the funeral. Bill can't stop his tears. Meanwhile, his friends were wondering what is Bill doing because he hadn't shown up at school yet. Beverly called at his house but no one answer.
" He isn't at home, guys. Neither his parents."
" Let's go to his house and wait for him to show up." Richie said
" It's too pushy. But if we care for him, we are going to his house. Maybe he needs us." Eddie said.
They went to Bill's house to wait for him. Suddenly, they saw his car. When Bill got off the car he was hugged by the entire group. He let some tears to slide down on his face. He needed his friends. He was happy to know his friends will always be at his side.
" Did you ditched school for me ?" Bill said.
" Dude, you are way more important to us than school." Richie said.
" They found Geor-Georgie. He's missing an arm."
" We are here for you, Billy." Beverly said.
" Kids, why don't you just come on in? Let me cook something for you." Bill's mom said
" I will help you." Beverly said.
" Thanks, sweetie."
