Part 20. Thursday, August 22nd.

This follows right after Stanley left the diner, first some of the losers dialogue. Then when you see ****** it changes to Stanley arriving home.
"I fuh-feel horrible" Bill stated. "I sh-sh-shouldn't have outed h-him"
"You really shouldn't have" Beverly scoffed. "Why did you?"
"I th-th-thought you were g-gonna!" Bill exclaimed.
"What? I would never." Beverly said.
    "R-r-Richie told me you w-w-w-would" Bill told Bev.
  "Richie, What the hell?" She turned to face him.
"I thought you would! I'm sorry" Richie apologized.
    "A word?" She gestured towards a empty table.
  "Fine" Richie sighed before following her to the empty booth.
  "Look I haven't told anybody about you, why would I tell anyone about Stan?" She asked him.
  "I don't know! It was stupid. I barely thought about it" Richie said.
"Richie, was there any reason? You don't seem entirely truthful" She questioned.
  "No reason." He lied.
"Richie.....?" She could tell he wasn't being honest.
  "I don't know. He was your ex, maybe there was some hard feelings" Richie confessed.
  "I can't believe you. I would never do that." Beverly stated.
   "I know that now! I was just worried, I won't be next time" he promised.
  "You better not be" Bev said before returning to the table, pretending like that whole conversation never happened.

Part 20 pt.2 August 24th, Saturday. Stan coming home from the library.
Stan came home to his mother and father sitting at the dining room table, they looked upset but they also looked... sad?
Stan knew why.
"Mom.. I-"
"Go upstairs Stanley." Andrea Uris replied sternly.
"Yes mother." Stanley replied before slowly walking upstairs.
He flopped down on his bed.
It was only three words, but it hurt like a million.
He thought he would cry or sob but he didn't.
He just felt empty.
