Logan walked into the kitchen trying to wake himself up. He just went to bed a few hours before Max had woken him up. As for Max she looks like she has been up for days.

" Can I get you something to drink? Coffee? Milk?" Logan asked trying to find himself something that would wake him up.

" No I'm fine. I just thought that we needed to talk about what happened before I left here, and what happened after I left."

" We do, but I didn't think you wanted to do it so soon of you coming back."

"Logan, I don't know how long I am staying this time."

"What? You can't do this to me again. I lost you once. I don't think I can handle losing you again."

" What do you mean that you can't handle losing me again?"

" Max, when you left I didn't get out of bed or eat anything for weeks. One day Bling came over because he was tired of me moping around all the time. He said that I should at least get out of bed for therapy and then I can go back to the black hole as he used to call it. After awhile I just got up every morning and went and sat in my computer room. I didn't do much, but at least I was up and moving."

"Logan, I'm so sorry that I hurt you."

" Max, I know you are sorry. I just want an explanation on why you left."

The two were interrupted when someone was knocking on the door.

"Let me get that. Why don't you sit down in the living room. I'll be right back."

Logan was walking now. He usually just walked around the apartment. As he walked up to the door he heard two voices. One of them sounded familiar. He opened the door to see Original Cindy with a child that was about seven years old.

" Hey rollerboy. How's it hanging?"

" Hey OC. Who is this with you?"

" This is Max's friend. She asked me if I could watch her, but Normal called me into work. Is she here?"

" Yea, she's in the living room."

Logan walked into the living room with the visitors in tow.

" Max you have some company."

The seven-year-old girl ran up to Max and gave her a big hug.

" Mommy why did you leave?"

" I'm sorry little Max. I didn't mean to upset you."

"Max? Did she just call you mommy?" Logan asked.
