It's been five days since Lori, Luan and Lynn were released and already the girls had to work. Luckily...they each managed to get jobs and a small apartment together. It was hard not being near their family, but the girls were sure that they all hated them for what they did. 

"Ugh...my feet are killing me." Lynn said as she plopped herself on the couch next to Luan. The girls had a night shift and were enjoying the couple of hours left before they had to go to work. While Lori was still working on getting her way to the top of the company that she managed to get into too. Sure the company was a bit wary of her, but still hired her on the condition that she controlled her anger. 

"So what do you want me to do about it?" Luan asked.

"Give me a foot rub." Lynn said causing Luan to look disgusted. She still had the memories of watching her other siblings rubbing their Aunt Ruth's feet. And how they turned away in disgust...not to mention that all she gave them was moody pudding.

"No. There's no way that I'm touching your feet." Luan said. Lynn tried to beg Luan to do it, but gave up and started to rub her own feet. As she was doing so..she couldn't help, but think of Lincoln and how he was doing. Was he still making those comic books with Clyde or did he do something else entirely? She couldn't help herself from thinking about his future...a future without Luan, Lori and her in it. 

"So what's on TV?" Lynn said.

"A bunch of new shows that we have no idea about it. And it's too early to start now." Luan said.

"Then how about we go for a walk later." Lynn said.

"Sigh...fine. Besides what are the chances that we'll run into someone that we knew during it anyway?" She asked. 3 hours later, both of the sisters walked out of their shared apartment and took in the sights. So much has changed in Royal Woods and they missed all of it due to their misplaced anger. When suddenly Luan bumped into someone on the sidewalks.

"Are you okay?" Luan asked.

"Yes. I am...wait, Luan?" The person said as the girls took a good look at the man and uttered the name of him.

"Wait a minute...Clyde?" Lynn said as she couldn't believe that her brother's dorky best friend would become this handsome.

"I would say that it's nice to see you again, but that would be a lie." Clyde said as he harbored great anger towards the three girls for what they did to his best friend. The boys still talked to each other and would be the best man of each of their weddings..since Clyde managed to get engaged to Haiku at the same time as Lincoln did to Ronnie Anne.

"Sigh...I guess you're still angry at us for what we did." Lynn said.

"Yes I am. My best friend was in a coma for weeks thanks to what you all did to him. And I don't think that I can ever forgive you for that." Clyde said.

"I figured as much, but we can still make things right with him now." Lynn said. Clyde wanted to yell at the both of them, but thought back to the words that Doctor Lopez told him at their last session. Holding onto his anger would only jeopardize his future. So he took a deep breath and looked at Lynn and Luan.

"And you think that the others would let you? Look, I'm still angry at the both of you, but I'm willing to give you a chance to make things right. But know if you blow this..then we're all better off not knowing each other." Clyde said as he started to walk away. He knew that his friend doesn't remember them, but he didn't want the girls trying to take advantage of him.  Before he called his fiancé, Clyde started to think of how challenging the girls have it and thought:

All of you have a challenge on your hands and if you were wise...you would prove that you actually changed before it becomes too late to fix it.
