"Can you please tell me what happened?" She said, rubbing the back of the boys neck.
Wendy didn't plan on leaving the school parking lot without an answer.
"Danny, ple-"
"It was dad."
Danny was looking down at his shoes, refusing eye contact.
"J-Jack?...what do you mean?"
He hesitated, soon giving in. "He just...appeared. It scared me..."
"Where? How-"
"Can we just please not talk about it?! God..."

Welp, that's your answer, Wendy thought to herself.
If she was being honest, she'd rather have the reason be because of a bully. With a bully, she can beat the shit out of the dumb kid.

But this is Jack...
Her only weakness.

As soon as they stepped foot in the house, Danny darted to his room, hearing a quiet click as he locked the door.
Feeling defeated, Wendy poured herself a glass of wine, plopping herself down on the couch.

Danny grabbed his Tame Impala vinyl, placing it where it was born to be.
Danny finally began to relax as the lyrics and instrumental filled his ears with enjoyment.
He laid down on his bed...re-thinking everything that happened...

Danny's pov:

Remember the muffled voice I heard in my head on my way to the school? Well, that showed up again as I was walking down the hallways.
The deeper and deeper I walked into the school, the more lightheaded I began to feel...
My heart racing...
My chest feeling like it's being squeezed to death...
I decided that it was best to get to my locker later, right at that moment I just needed to go to the office.
I turned around...

Face-to-face with the one person I shouldn't miss the most...

My father.

Jack Torrance.
