Chapter 3: Families
Terri and Molly met at the front stairs and waited for Molly's brother to come so that she could tell her mom she would be home later. "Oh there he is!" Molly said to Terri, "GREG! OVER HERE!" She yelled. Greg saw her sister yelling his name and ran over with Sean, Emma, and Manny of course.
"Hey Molly, this is Sean, Emma, and Manny." Greg said.
"Hey." Sean, Emma, and Manny said.
"Hey, this is Terri, I think she already knows you…" Molly said. "Well anyway, I'm going over Terri's so when you get home tell dad I'll be home for dinner."
"But I'm going to hang out with Sean! So you tell dad I won't be home until dinner." Greg complained. Then he got a glint in his eye and elbowed Sean, he gave him a look and they ran off.
"Come one Manny lets go." Emma said, "Bye Molly and Terri, nice meeting you."
"Oh great, Terri, can we just stop at my house before we go to your house, just so I can tell my dad we won't be home until diner?" Molly asked.
"Sure!" Terri replied.
The two girls starting walking towards Molly's house. Terri had no idea where she was taking her; she had never been in this part of the town before. She stopped in front a broken down apartment with lots of broken windows and beer bottles lying around the "lawn". She saw some motorcycles in the back and some broken down cars. "Is this, er, it?" Terri asked.
"Uh, yeah." Molly said turning red. "Ok, I'll go inside and tell my dad I won't be home till dinner, you can wait out here." She continued.
"Ok." Terri said.
Molly walked inside, and then Terri heard her saying something to her dad.
Then she heard yelling, she could hardly make it out but she thought he was saying something like, "Where are you going!? You're supposed to stay home and make dinner!" He said in a slurred voice. Terri heard smashing plates. Then she heard Molly yell "I'll be home at 6! So will Greg!" Terri heard running and more smashing plates.
Molly walked outside, and saw Terri staring at her in shock. "Umm, sorry." Molly said.
"What happened?" Terri asked still in shock.
"Um nothing my dad was just, er, in a bad mood." Molly said. "Should we stop at the Dot then go to your house?"
"Sure." Terri said.
Meanwhile, Sean and Greg were walking downtown. "So…are you and your sister close?" Sean asked Greg.
"Yeah, very close." Greg answered.
"Lucky, I have an older brother but we aren't that close." Sean replied.
"Well what about your dad, or mom, are you guys close?" Greg asked.
"No. Not at all, not close in distance either." Sean muttered.
"What do you mean?" Greg asked.
"My parents are alcoholics and they live in Wasaga Beach, so I live here with my brother. I never see my parents." Sean explained.
"Oh." Greg said.
"What about you and your parents?" Sean asked.
"Well, we aren't that close either…" Greg began.
"And…" Sean said.
"Well, my, er, mom kinda ran off last year because…never mind, and umm, my dad moved here with us, and uhh yea, we aren't that close." Greg said really fast with his face turning red.
"Oh, that sucks." Sean said. He thought that Greg was hiding something, but he wasn't sure what.
