"he jumped and hit the floor as Hannah screamed with fear.

Hannah calls the police but all you know.. Joey is already dead and now his kids are dead too.."

2 Years Later

Daniel sat in his chair at time and looked at the clock on the wall and sighed to himself, he cracked his knuckles and got up going to his computer and looking at some posts and smiles to himself. He sees some animals pictures to make him feel better. As he went down, he saw a photo of Joey as he looks observing the photo, It was him and Joey together with a cute caption that made Daniel tear up. He looked at the photo at Joey and sighed, and went off Instagram and started to get up and walk away from his computer as he cleans up the dog toys off the floor and cleaning the house. 

The phone starts ringing as Daniel ran to the table grabbing the phone and answers it, the phone call was from Hannah. 

"Hey Daniel, how's it going?" Hannah asked softly through the phone as Daniel stays quiet for a moment while looking around and then coughs a bit,

"fine actually, do you need anything Hannah?" Daniel replied.

"I was wondering if you wanna meet up at Barley's Diner. So, we can chat and hang out, and plus they have great food there." She says normally.

Daniel looks down with thoughts and then lifts his phone while holding his phone so he can hear her,

"Sure, time?"

"12:11 PM." She replied.

After the call, he went upstairs to his bedroom and picked out clothes to go out with, after getting dressed, he fixes his hair and puts his phone in his pocket and goes downstairs grabbing his keys and walks out the door and shuts the door locking it and heads to his car to get to the diner to see Hannah. 

Few moments later, Daniel drove a while to get to the diner and parks in the parking lot and then gets out his car and walks in the diner as he sees Hannah sitting at a booth alone waiting. Daniel walks over and sits across from her and smiles a bit. She smiles back,

"You made it, I am glad. The menus are here." Hannah said while looking through the menu as Daniel lifted the menu and went through as he looked at drinks and some of the foods that was making him hungry even more. As the waiter came asking for the drinks, Daniel looked outside the diner window's and saw a boy standing there crying and falling aside from the wall. He cried there as the boy saw Daniel and looked away and hid in his arms, he shot up from the booth and ran out the diner and to find where the boy was. 

As he ran he didn't see anybody there. He put his head on his head and sighed, he looked confused and concerned, then he walks back inside and sat across from Hannah again as she looks at him worried, 

"Just give me lemonade that's all.." Daniel said to the waiter who walked away as Hannah looks at Daniel as Daniel looks back, "Yeah, I am fine. I just.. needed a running break." 

She looks at him knowing he's lying to her and she sighs and looks down,

"Do you ever think about.. Joey?" She asks with a soft quiet voice as Daniel stays quiet for a moment and looks up at her and nods a bit with sadness within his face. He couldn't explain how much he misses Joey and his kids. How much they mean to him, and now dead. 

Hannah stays quiet for a moment before looking away, 

"Sometimes I cry wanting to see him again. How many times I miss him. How much I wanna kiss him.." Daniel says while tears form out of his eyes onto his cheeks. 

She looks at him..
