Wirt and Greg were both in the kitchen, while Wirt was preparing break-fest to start the day his overly excited little brother was playing with George Washington and singing potatoes and molasses mostly 'cause after their encounter with the cheery, yet very romantic, and sorta love-deprived teacher it had been a daily routine for them to sing it. That and it was very catchy.
Greg suddenly had paused holding George in his two baby-like hands- he held him to his face and turned to Wirt.
"Brother...Do you know what happened to our parents?"
Wirt suddenly felt a lump in his and tried very hard to breathe, but the sudden question had caught a tight grip on him. "Um-uh-umm" He stuttered on his words , he mustered out a flustered laugh.
"Uh-hah..umm why the sudden question Gregory my dear brother?"
"Well I just wanted to know... I mean I know they died but I don't know anything besides that..." Greg had a look of despair on his face and Wirt thought it was time to tell the truth. While Greg didn't have a personality that you would call normal it was definitely unique and he was very enthusiastic about pretty much everything so seeing him sad would make even the toughest of the tough sad.
Wirt picked him up and carried him outside and sat them both on two logs close to "The Forest".
"Gregory I was going to tell you this until you got older and it would be easier to fathom into that crazy little head of yours" He ruffled his hair causing Greg to let out a chuckle "...But I guess we both waited enough time. I'll tell you what happened to our parents."
