Paperjam POV
  We managed to get back before Uncle Zephyr did. Grey was kinda mad at me for running out and stealing his book again.
  I was laughing.
  "Ah that was awesome! We should sneak out more!" I said, laying on the floor.
  He didn't respond. I look over to him. He's on his phone, clearly ignoring me.
  I sat by him.
  "Grey, don't ignore me. We just had like, the funnest day ever." I said.
  "That's not a word and maybe you did but I didn't." He hissed.
  "What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.
  "You are reckless, you are loud, you are sometimes very disrespectful, and you only do what you want to do. You never listen to anyone else!" He said. "Now just leave me alone for a while. I'm not getting in trouble for you."
  I was quiet for a few seconds.
  "Not gonna lie Grey. That hurt." I said.
  He scoffed and I left him alone for a while. I tried calling mom. Dad answered the phone though.
  "Hi Pj. What's up?" He asked.
  "...why do you have ma's phone?" I asked.
  "She's napping. Is everything ok?" He asked.
  "Yeah...well...no. Grey's mad at me."
  "Why?"
I thought about if I should tell him the truth or not.
  "I keep stealing his book because he won't do anything else. I'm bored." I said.
  He gave me a few suggestions and I hung up halfway through his sentence.
 
Gradient POV
  Coco texted me but I'm to annoyed to answer. I don't want to snap at him. I turned my phone off and enjoyed the quiet.
  I got a soda-pop from my backpack and realized how much I wanted to go home.
  Mama's home and I know something is wrong but they won't tell me what.
  And that only scared me. What? Is she dying or something? I drank and that thought didn't leave my mind for the rest of the night.
  I didn't get even a second of sleep that night. I was to scared and this place is so unfamiliar.
  But when Pj woke up I found myself less annoyed but still not fully ready to talk to him.
  Uncle Zephyr took us to explore the city today. He gave us fifty dollars each and said to get what we want.
  So, naturally I bought a new hoodie. Pj found a bunch of drawing stuff and bought all he could.
  I have my tablet so when he offered me a sketchbook I declined. I still had twenty left and decided to save it.
  I was exhausted when we got home. So exhausted that I just fell asleep when I laid on the floor.
