Chapter Two: Dinner of Five

7:48 p.m. - And still moving.

"No. I have a life dad." Andy and Ephram was in the kitchen when it all started. He was about to leave just when Andy told him he could not. Ephram of course, explained at the words. And thus is how it all started.

"I'll stay home tomorrow and the rest after tonight." Ephram screamed at his dad. He came home earlier today and told him his grandparents was coming today. Apparently Andy didn't know about it and was just informed the day before. They were also coming to their house be themselves, so they could be here any moment. "Why are you telling me this now and not earlier."

"I didn't think you would make plans."

"Well, I did! And going to them! Why does it matter if I stay tonight?" he growled.

"Because your grandpa is going to think the reason your not home is because of me."

"What's wrong with that?"

Andy shocked, had no response, instead said, "You're staying. Reschedule your plans. What's one day later going to make?"

"A lot! Besides, how do you know they won't understand if I'm not here? They spent six weeks with me and got to know me. Grandpa will understand," Ephram looked at his watch and sighed," Sorry I can't continue this bond. I have to go." He was at the door about to open when on the other side the door knocked. In some sense he knew it was, but hoped he was wrong. Slowly, he opened the door revealing the person behind. It was the dreadful grandpa and Nonny. "Ah! Ephram! You've grown over the past month." He laughed.

"I-uh-thank you," They each gave him a warm hug, "I didn't know you were coming."

"We wanted it to be a surprise." From Nonny "Surprise!"

"Where's my little Delia?"

"She's up stairs. Ephram could you go get her."

He sighed, "Yeah sure anything for you," Ephram ran upstairs to Delia room. "Grandpa and Nonny are here. Dad's wants you downstairs." She looked up surprised. "I know. I don't know about it either."

"I wasn't thinking about that," She stood up, ready to leave. Then looked over to her clock it read 7:59p.m. "You're still here."

"Really?"

"I mean you're not suppose to be here. You said you had a date with Madison."

"I do...did. I'm not going. And it's not a date."

"Why? Why aren't you going?"

"Dad told me 15 minutes ago, Nonny and Grandpa is coming tonight. He assumed I didn't have any plans, then just thought it wouldn't matter if he told me the morning, like normal people."

"Dad's not normal...," She shook her head as she spoke, "And Madison?"

"She'll be...not happy at least when I tell her."

"Just go. Grandpa will understand."

He sighed, "I think I'm going to stay...They'll already here. I don't want to be rude."

Moments after Ephram had called her and informed her of everything that happened, she felt a stab of disappointment. Why do I feel like this she thought It was just dinner with a friend nothing more. She sat on the couch of the living all dressed and ready.

She got up, turned the corner to her room, got in and closed the door behind her. And didn't sleep until an hour passed. All night she pondered why she felt disappointed.
