"You left me hanging! I thought you'd back me up, Instead, you made me look like a fool! What will I say if I see him again!"
"You won't see him again!" Borris yelled back. Boy tilted his head and let go of his grip on Girl and Borris.
"I'm not a dog.." Girl whispered.
Girl walked away rubbing her arm, She stood by Borris and then looked at Boy confused.
"I won't see Tony again?" Boy asked.
"Well yeah, But.. I'm kind of tired.." Borris fell to his knees, rubbed his eyes and then faded away.
"Borris!?" Boy whipped around and ran back up the stairs. He threw open the bedroom door and raced to the plant sitting on the window seal.
It was dried and the petals were falling off. He grabbed the water out of his bag and poured some onto the dry soil, watching it slowly sink in. Small flicks of sparkles left the plant, Soon it rose up and regrown it's broken petal.
Boy stared at the flower in amazement.
"Wow Borris.." Boy whispered.
"Borris?" Tony said from the bedroom door.
Boy let out a sigh and turned to face Tony. He then walked over to him and gave him a hug. Tony was shocked.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm not going to see you anymore, So this is my Goodbye."
"Whatever." Tony pushed Boy off of him and walked over to his bed.
"Goodbye Boy, I guess. I'm going to sleep. You should too."
Boy watched Tony as he covered himself in the orange blanket that sat on the edge of his bed. Then he slowly made his way over to his bed where he slept with no covers. He laid there and stared at the ceiling, listening to the fan go in a continuous flow in a smooth motion until he heard Tony's snore over top of it.
He closed his eyes and opened them once again, Borris was standing in front of him. Boy jumped and fell off his bed making a thudding noise.
He got up and looked over at Tony which seemed to not notice it.
"Borris? What is wrong with you appearing out of nowhere.."
"I just came back from visiting your sister!" Borris smiled.
"She said that she loved you and she can't do anything without you, And-"
"Skip the cheesy parts, Borris, Where is the moral of the story?" Boy said, interrupting Borris.
"She misses you, And she wanted me to tell you Good Night."
Boy coughed and spoke once again, "Good Night?"
"Grab the pot and jump out the window. There is a bed down there, You can't die from this height. One more story and it will." Borris ran for the dark corner and disappeared.
"Borris?! Why?" Boy stared at the dark corner and from the bottom of the door, he saw flashing lights of yellow. He coughed again and then he listened closely. He heard someone scream then he looked out the window from Tony's side of the room,
"Tony!! The House is on fire!! Wake up!!" Boy yelled he raced to Tony's bed and shook him awake.
"What?!" Tony yelled. He saw the smoke rising from the door and jumped up. He opened the door and hesitated when he saw the whole place on fire.
