Phillip's POV
Why was Timmy asking me that? What was going on over there?
I had to ask, "Uh, Timmy. Why are you asking me that?"
Timmy stammered, "I-I just want to know, Phillip."
I shrugged and answered, "Well, you really didn't have to ask me that, Timmy. I value Chester and A.J. like brothers like I do with you." Timmy seemed to have calmed down a little and then I asked, "Uh, Timmy. Is everything okay over there? You usually don't ask me questions like that."
There was an awkward silence between the two of us as I waiting for Timmy to answer. Did he hear me? Before I could ask again, Timmy spoke.
He answered, "I wanted to know Phillip. Did you ever feel that way before?"
"Honestly, no." I answered, which wasn't the exact truth.
I wanted to know...everything. Why did Timmy and I look alike? Why was this world created? What is the truth behind the island magic? I didn't have the answers but I knew Timmy didn't either.
Timmy seemed a little bummed and softly said, "Oh, I see."
I felt a little bad and replied, "I do have a ton of questions, Timmy but you can't answer them. In fact, I don't think anyone can."
Timmy seemed to feel better and responded, "At least you how I'm feeling right now."
I smiled and I saw my mom right behind me.
She whispered, "Let him go. He needs to be with his brothers now."
I nodded, understanding what she meant as I commented, "Timmy, I've got to go. Talk to you later, okay?"
Timmy answered, "Okay, Phillip. Call me later. 'Bye."
With that, Timmy hung up as did I.
I faced my mom and asked, "What did you mean by that?"
She smiled and answered, "After what happened at the courthouse, it seems that those three just need some time together. Nothing more and nothing else."
I smiled and nodded in agreement as I stated, "You're right, mom. I'm just so lucky to have Timmy in my life. I'm lucky to have everyone I know in my life."
Mom smiled at my response and said, "You are one in a million, Phillip as is Timmy. No wonder..." She stopped and composed herself and said, "No, now is not the time for that. I'm just so proud of you, Phillip."
Before I could ask what she meant, she walked away. 'That can never be good,' I thought.
