Wednesday and Augustus walked into the living room. The children were still playing, but, when they saw Augustus, Jedayi was the first person who ran up to him to give him a big hug.
"Dad!", he shouted.
All the other kids froze and turned towards the entryway, Venessa,Henry and Emma stampeded towards him screaming, "Uncle Auggie!"
They were about to trample him over, Augustus just laughed because these children were food for his heart. Wednesday watched this chaos, unsure if Jedayi and all these children were his kids not knowing why they were so excited to see him.
Eventually they calmed down and Augustus cleared his throat to speak. The children sort of stood together waiting for the question.
"Okay,so, whose great idea was this?",asked Augustus.
Their faces looked like a bright light had been shined on them, all of them except one. There was one who was not looking at him. Augustus zeroed in on Henry who seemed to be looking down on the floor not making eye contact with Augustus.
Augustus said, "Henry can I speak to you in private for a second?"
Henry's frown turned into a smile.
"Sure! Are we taking a ride in your meat truck?",asked Henry.
"No we're going to chat.",said Augustus.
He pulled Henry out of the group and walked towards the Greenhouse with Henry under his arm.
"So, what are we going to chat about?",asked Henry.
"Oh we're going to talk about on how much trouble you'll be in with your parents." ,said Augustus.
"Oh please.. Uncle Auggie!, can't you say I was just curious to see what was inside.. I'm sure they'll probably understand!",pleaded Henry.
"Nope, no, they are on their way and so are Emma's parents. I'm going to drop off Mabel and Carrie at their houses as well.",explained Augustus.
Both he and Henry could hear cars outside which meant the parents were here...
Outside of the Addams house, Violet and Charlie were already shouting at their son and daughter, the front door closing slowly was in the background as everything came rolling out about the fact that Henry had disappeared and they had no choice but to ground him (They , also, grounded Venessa. She wasn't too happy,saying "she tried to stop him", but it was too late).
Veruca was disappointed in Emma, thinking Emma knew better. Mike, Veruca's husband said if
she was with her friends and that was fine. The Teavee family got into their car arguing. Veruca was blasting Mike about how calm he was as the car pulled away. Augustus and Wednesday watched them go. Augustus turned to Wednesday,
"Thank you for watching my son anyway.",he said with a small smile.
"No problem.",said Wednesday calmly.
The two of them were silent for a little while.
"Hey, do you wanna exchange phone numbers?",asked Augustus.
A small smile appeared on Wednesday.
"Sure.",she said.
The both of them gave each other paper that have their phone numbers on it so they could call each other some time.
