3rd POV:

"5 days, 5 days, I knew it was gonna be tough, but I said surely the children she loves so much and gave her life up for would find a way to make it work. Obviously I was wrong, am disappointed, I expect y'all to clean this up" Walter says sadly then left the kitchen shaking his head.

"I'll tell you what, I'll be the better man between the both of us, I am sorry" Lonnie apologized to Aunt May.

"You gonna be the better man between the both of us?" Aunt May asked sarcastically, then sprayed him with the fire extinguisher below the waist.

Lonnie screamed out from the shock, Aunt May then walked out of the kitchen cursing with Lonnie right behind her as North sneaked out of the kitchen.

"Good luck" Christian says you his sisters as he and Evan prepare to leave the kitchen, "no, don't even try it Christian" Cheryl warned him.

"Am not the one that tried to deep fry the whole kitchen am I?" Christian asked Evan, "no and am not the one that was making the blackaronnie and cheese over there. So I think we should just go, maybe, you want some pizza or wings or something?" Evan asked as they began to head up stairs.

"You know I got to watch my carbs" Christian reminds him, "oh that's fine, they got that high school cheerleader food" Evan jokes.

"You funny, shut up dude" Christian tells Evan as he laughs out loud.

Christmas Day

North POV:

The first thing we did this morning was open our presents of course, Evan was acting strange all day, ok since last night he's been weird.

Now it's Christmas dinner, Eric and Brooke's had been invited over. I sat across from Evan and between Mr. Meyers and Rachel and much to Aunt May displeasure Eric sat next to her.

"So daddy how do you like the cranberry salad, pretty good right?" Cheryl asked Walter smiling. "Very good" he complimented her, "I made the stuffing. Do you like it?" Rachel asked Walter.

"Tastie" he tells her as he ate, "would you like some Cheryl?" She asked her sister which surprises everyone.

"Yes, I would Rachel" cheryl says smiling holding out her plate as Rachel shares it for her.

"That's very nice of y'all" Aunt May smiling at the girls.

"I want to be a copycat, I want some stuffing too" Lonnie says holding out plate to get some too, "I bet you can't get enough stuffing!" Rachel says aggressive towards him, which is weird.

"Is there something going on that I don't know about?" I asked whispering in Rachel ears giving her a confused look.

"Something that rhyme with tweeter" she mumbled as she shared the stuffing, as I ate I tried to find the word that rhymed.

"You want some stuffing babe?" Eric asked Aunt May, "boy, am a grown ass woman" she warned him with a glare.

"Cameron do you mind passing me the green beans?" Christian asked nicely, "don't eat too much, we got to save some for the shelter right grand dad?" Cam asked Walter as he passed his dad the dish.

"That's right buddy" Walter says smiling as Evan threw another glared his way, I tried to make eye contact but he wouldn't look at me.

"This is delicious, if I promise not to cook can we do this tomorrow?" Brooke's asked laughing, all of a sudden Cam dropped his fork.

"Try to be careful there Cam, don't know when we gonna resell, right pops?" Evan asked, resell? Ok, really? What the hell is going on? Cause am lost.

"Right" Walter mumbled and kept on eating, "you know how to get scratches out of wooden floors, here's the trick you get some shoe polish and some crisco oil a pair of old underwear. You wrap the old underwear around your hand and buff it out, put a little muscle to it and just buff it out. Am sure you have a pair of old underwear laying around here Walter, it's a little trick I learnt over in croatia" Lonnie rambled on with a demonstration with his table cloth.

All of a sudden Eric sniffed Aunt May "listen to me, I'll stab your ass with this fork, you hear me" she threaten him pointing her fork at him, "I would love that" he says to her and kept on eating.

"Evan, you've been acting weird since last night, what's going on?" I asked finally had enough of his attitude.

"Nothing, I guess I just lost my appetite" he answered, "well that's never happened before" Rachel says confused as well.

"I love the new paint on the porch pops and the hegdes you've been meaning to clean those up for a while now I guess you finally got around to it" Evan says glaring at Walter ignoring his sister and I.

"Yeah, I guess I did" Walter answered him obviously know what's going on while everyone else is lost.

Lonnie began to ramble again but Aunt May shut him up immediately, "Evan, baby what you talking about?" Aunt May asked him curiously.

"What am talking about?" Evan asked amused and took a sip of his water, "dad why don't you tell everyone what am talking about?!" He yelled as he threw a sheet of paper onto the table.

"What the hell is going on?" Aunt May asked again as Rachel took up the paper to read it.

"Dad your selling the house?" Rachel asked confused, "no, your joking" Cheryl says as Rachel hands her the paper.

"You did this without saying anything to us?" Cheryl asked upset, "Cheryl make me see this" Aunt May says as Cheryl passed her the paper.

"Oh come on now Walter, you know you should've say something to somebody" Aunt May says as she read the paper.

"Pop, mom would have spoken to everyone in this house before she makes that kind of decision" Christian says upset also.
