"That was totally how I didn't think we'd spend a day," said Aaron recollecting about what had occurred

            "Who even was the guy?" asked Tatum.

            "I have no clue, but I hit the guy's head with a beer bottle, and he fell right onto the ground," Michael answered filled with pride.

            "I just don't want him to find us again," Ophelia shrugged.

            "Why would such a guy be s-so mean?" Amethyst questioned showing how naïve she could be.

            "Because it's a fucked up world," Michael quickly answered.

            Looking at the map, they realized that they found their way to a safe house after matching up the addresses.

            "Shall we enter?" Michael wondered.

            Ophelia grabbed the map and went to ring the doorbell.

            A man and one of his children answered the door to see the map in Ophelia's hand.

            "Come right in! We're playing charades!" the man smiled, "My name is John, and this is one of my children. Her name is Elizabeth."

            "Thanks, come on guys!" said Ophelia trying to get the others to enter with her.

            "So, do we just join random teams..?" Aaron asked trying to make sure.

            "Yep! Join any team you may like!" said Elizabeth making a huge toothy grin.

            "Uh, do you guys have any bandages for me to be in?" Tatum wondered.

            John's wife, Lorraine, gave an understanding nod as she approached Tatum.

            "Come with me, dearie, I'll make sure you're all cleansed and bandaged up so you don't get an infection," Lorraine answered giving a smile.

            Lorraine took Tatum into one of the bathrooms starting to mend her. As Tatum was getting all bandaged up, the other four decided to split up to join the two teams.

            Michael and Aaron sat down on the floor to join one of the teams only for Aaron to be chosen to act out a word the next round.

            Aaron looked at the card and it said to act out the word flamingo. He gave a small shrug and curved one of his legs to touch the other hoping that he wouldn't screw up.

            "Uh, yoga?" Michael quickly guessed.

            Aaron frantically shook his head no waiting for somebody else to guess,

            "A goose?" asked John.

            Shaking his head no, he began to think of some hints and started to point at something pink.

            "A flamingo!" screamed one of the younger children named Katie.

            Giving a nod, he decided to also give the girl a high five to be nice since he never gives high fives to strangers. Shortly after, Aaron ended up losing his balance and fell onto the floor.

            "Are you okay?" Michael asked looking over him.

            Aaron gave a thumb up and got back up.
