Moments later Leonard felt someone shaking him; he woke up when Lennie turned on the light. He saw Lennie and an upset Brittany near the bed and sat at the edge.

"Grandpa, what are you going to do?" Brittany asked while she held his arm.

"Come here, I want to talk to you two," he said while he put arm around his grandkids then took them into his room and sat on the side of his bed.

"Listen, either tonight or tomorrow morning there will be some police officers going door to door talking with people who may have seen anything and they will ask if we saw and heard anything, of course all we heard were shots."

"I thought the shots were from my dream, I still didn't really hear it," Leonard told him.

"But then if they catch the bad guy, wouldn't we have to go to court?" Brittany asked.

"Only if you saw the person doing the crime then you are. So you are safe since you just heard shots, like those who were asleep, okay. Well, Leonard you should sleep in Brittany's room and Brittany will sleep in here if she wants," he told them.

"Okay, but are you going out there?" Leonard asked then Brittany held on to Lennie's arm tight.

"Maybe you guys should stay in the room and I'll just tell him I didn't hear anything. No, even if you guys weren't here, I can't go out since I don't have back up," he told them.

They calmed down after a few minutes. Ten minutes later a rookie officer came to the door, Lennie got it and answered a few questions.

"Hi, sorry to wake you sir, but one of the tenants of this apartment complex was killed and was wondering if you heard and saw anything,"

"No, I didn't officer," he told him then the officer left to meet with Detective Green not knowing he visited the home of Detective Briscoe.

Everyone went to bed while the police investigated the murder.

August 19th 8am—

Everyone was up, had donuts that were delivered by Ed for Lennie then they watched TV for a while. They went downstairs to the common room that had arcade games, a dartboard, an air hockey, and a pool table. He showed them how to play pool.

"Cool," Leonard said after Lennie showed Brittany how to knock the ball into the corner pocket.

"So beat that," Brittany told her brother in a mocking tone.

"Shut up,"

"Hey! That's enough," their grandfather told them.

After a while they went back to the apartment to watch TV then the ringing phone caused Lennie to pick it up. After Lennie made the order, he told the kids he needed to take the car to get an oil change and would be back then went to his room.

"Grandpa is finally going to leave us alone! Isn't that great?" Brittany asked with a smile.

Leonard looked at her, not sure that he would do that. "We'll see," he said.

12:00pm—

Jack arrived with the food, after they ate, Lennie left. Leonard asked Jack a few questions but wasn't surprised with the answer he was given.

"My grandfather called you to watch us didn't he?"

"He called me yes, but the defense in the case I am prosecuting asked for a continuance so I told Lennie I was available and wanted to show you guys how to play darts."

"Oh man!" Brittany said in annoyance.

"What? I do something wrong?" Jack asked with a little worry.

"What is your problem? You knew he would not leave us alone here. May I remind you that there was a shooting the other night in the complex and you were scared to death," Leonard reminded his sister.

"Shut up! I was not scared."

"Hey, come on. It's okay to be scared. I get scared, everyone gets scared," he told them.

"Yeah, we are not babies and we can take care of ourselves," she told him then they left the apartment.

"Well, you never know what might happen," he told them while they walked to the common room.

They went to the dartboard where Jack threw first while demonstrating how to throw the dart into the board. The kids took turns.

"I was wondering, did you see that there is a woman who is in love with grandpa," Leonard laughed.

"Yeah, she's all, oh I love him, so cute," Brittany said while giggling.

Jack raised his eyebrows, his mouth opened a little with a stunned look on his face.

"Does he know that she talked about him?" Jack asked as he sat on the chair.

"No," the kids said while they giggled.

Jack smiled then after a while they went back to the apartment to watch TV; once Lennie came home Jack went home. Lennie took the kids to an amusement park where there was a roller coaster and games. The games they played the most since Lennie tried to win prizes for them. One of the booths had an empty basket where a player tosses softballs in. The grandfather went first; three times he threw and missed.

"Ah! I was never good at throwing the ball or doing things like that," he said when Leonard and Brittany giggled. Leonard stepped up to the booth.

"This is how you do it, Grandpa," he said then threw the ball and missed all three times.

Lennie folded his arms while he replied sarcastically, "Oh I see. But you did it the same way I did."

They laughed and Brittany walked up to the booth after her brother walked back to where his grandfather stood.

"Boys, you are doing it all wrong," she gestured to them with her finger and continued, "watch this."

She threw the ball three times and it fell in all three times. "See guys, that's the way you do it."

"Women," Leonard said with his arms folded. Lennie lightly smacked his grandson on the back of the head.

"Very good," her grandfather told her when he gave her a hug.

"Thanks," she said.

A few hours later they all got home to watch TV on the couch when suddenly the lights went out in the apartment complex.

"Ahhh! Grandpa!" Brittany screamed.
