Olly slammed the door shut. His breathing slowed when he knew they were safe. He turned back to Olivia.
"Nice cute little apartment you have here." She said. "How are you going to Mushroom High and living here?"
"Stay right there, please." Olly walked into his dad's room. "Dad?" He checked in the kitchen. "Dad?" He kept walking all around their house, calling for his dad. There was no response.
"You okay?" Olivia asked.
"One minute." Olly called his dad's phone. It rung in his bedroom. Olly walked back in there and searched one last time. Then, he hung up. "He's not home, but he wouldn't leave without his phone..."
"So, he's gone?"
"I can ask Scissors!" Olly said. "He gave me his number before I left to find you!"
"Making friends already, huh?"
Olly nodded. "Come on, come on, pick up..."
"Hello?" Scissors asked. "Did you find her?"
"Yes, but..."
"Oh boy. What is it?"
"My dad's gone. Vanished. Poof!" Olly mimicked an explosion with his hand, then realized that Scissors couldn't see it and felt embarrassed.
"Alright, I'm coming over."
"WAAAAH! Don't do that!" Olly exclaimed, waving his hand. "You need to get better!"
"Oh...?" Scissors said. "You're worried about me...?"
"Of course!" Olly said. "You're my friend!" He blushed a little. "Cause, you know...friendship love. Hehe..."
"Heh, fine. As you wish, Sire." He smiled on the other end of the phone. "Did you know that the Princess Bride is my favorite movie?"
Olly's face grew hot and he, not knowing how to respond, hung up on Scissors and threw his phone across the room. "Alright, let's go find my dad!"
