Ani sighed. "Alright so you were on your way to Oscar's, I think we should probably start there.

Pep nodded. "As good as a place as any," she agreed.

Ani looked back at the two boys. "You two know where he lives?" She asked.

Ditzy nodded "Yeah I do. I'll lead the way."

Pep shivered as she saw the cold faces of the people out on the street. Again, she was glad she wasn't there alone.

Sorrow stepped out of Oscars and slowly walked away. She wanted to stay with him but there was no point in it right now.

Ditzy was a few feet a head of them but he quickly stopped. "What is it?" Pep asked.

Klutzy eyes widened. "Sorrow!" HE shouted running over towards her.

Sorrow looked up, she couldn't move. He was the last person she wanted to see right now.

Pep watched Sorrow as Klutzy was running towards her. She didn't look too good in her opinion. She looked really stressed or something.

Sorrow looked up. "Oh heya Klutzy." She said quietly folding her arms staring at the ground.

Klutzy grinned at her. "Wow, where have you been?"

Sorrow groaned. "I've been around... Thinking and stuff." She said.

Pep ran to Sorrow and Klutzy also. "Race and I came ta look for ya, but we couldn't cuz we saw dat guy," she said, lowering her voice nearing the end of her sentence.

Sorrow sighed. "I have no idea...what guy?' She asked.

Pep sighed. "The guy who got ya in the refuge and....ya," she said, not wanting to say the last part.

Sorrow nodded" Oh him. I haven't seen him for years." She lied.

"Oh, well Race and I saw him when we were comin heah, so we decided ta head back and tell Ani and stuff," she said.

Ani stepped forward. "Sorrow you're lying. You saw him."

Sorrow shook her head. "No I"m not! I didn't!!" She shouted.

Ain shook her head. "you're not telling me da truth."

Klutzy stepped in. "If she says she hasn't seen she hasn't seen him!"

Pep studied Sorrow for a moment. She was acting different to how she had acted just awhile before when they had talked. She also wondered how she could have not seen him, for he had been right by Oscar's place, so Race had told her.

Sorrow shook her head. "I...don't wanna talk about it!" she shouted and stared walking past them.

Ani grabbed her. "You gonna tell me?! You know what he did!"

Sorrow rolled her eyes. "How the hell could I forget?!" Pep stood watching the two, afraid to say anything.

"Ani why da heck do ya keep bringin dat up, huh? We all know it happened, ya don't hafta keep remindin us! Can't ya see da goil has gone through a lot today?" Klutzy yelled as he attempted to pull Sorrow out of Ani's clutches.

Ani glared at him. "What?! You want me to just forget me bruddah?! Like he nevah existed?! IS that it, huh???"

"No we don't want ya ta forget about you're bruddah!" Klutzy yelled. "Dat's not what I said!!"

"Den what do you want from me?! I want revenge but she's keeping her mouth shut! I didn't think she could keep anything shut." She said glaring over at Sorrow.

Sorrow closed her eyes. Why did her best friend think so lowly of her? It drove her even crazier.

Pep knit her brow. "Why do ya gotta go and say dose things? All it does is make things worse Ani!!!" she yelled.

Ani glared at her. "You know if she hadn't been her me bruddah would still be alive!" she took a deep breath. "And how does she honour his memory?! By screwing a Delancey."

Sorrow shook her head and Ani. "You haven't got a clue what you're talking about! I love Oscar!!" She shouted.

"Ani I think you should take a turn at dis whole shutting your mouth thing. I think it would be a foist for you," Pep said hotly. She couldn't stand that instead of trying to make things better between her and Sorrow, she was deliberately making it worse.

Ani sighed and stepped back a little. "I just wanna know how she could have loved him and then went of with that creep..." Klutzy nodded a bit at hearing this.

Sorrow brushed her hair of her face. She didn't have an answer for that. "I just do. And dere isn't a day dat goes by dat I don't wish dat he was still here by me side. Dat I had just gone through with it cause he'd still be alive. Dere isn't' a day dat goes by dat I don't blame meself for his death."

Morris had been walking around getting some fresh air when he heard the little argument going on. Being the ape that he was, he decided to try to go stir things up a bit.
Sorrow stepped back a little. "Now if you excuse me I"m gonna take off now." She said.

"Where are ya goin?" Pep called out to her.

Sorrow turned around."I don't know. I should probably be alone right now." She sighed, she didn't want to tell them she was headed towards the cemetery.

Morris walked up to Ani. "Awww, whinin about yer bruddah's death again?" he said snidely.

Ani looked up at him. She narrowed her eyes. "Maybe I should make it so you have a bruddah's death to whine about and see how you feel!" she shouted.

Morris shook his head. "Sheesh, dat tempah of yours is somethin else. Maybe you'd feel bettah if ya had your own guy ta hold ya and make ya feel bettah?" he tried. "Cuz I know I'se available!"

Ani shook her head. Yeah available for what?" She asked. Maybe I"ll just kill him right now. she thought to herself nearly laughing out loud.

Morris gave an apelike confused look. "Ya know. Available available," he said.

Ani looked desperately at the to others. "Yeah well for what?! I mean you available to paint our LH? Cause if dat's what you mean I" don't pay too well."

Morris looked at her, still confused. "Well, actually, I'se available for dat - I mean - dang it! No! I'se not available ta paint da LH I'se available ta hold ya and make ya feel bettah and stuff!" he said. "Dang woman you're confusin me!" he added.

Ditzy looked over at him. "So um Morris how would you make her feel better "and stuff"?"

Morris shot a glare at Ditzy. "Hey, dat's none of your business!" he said.

Ani smirked. "No um I'd really like ta know too. Or do you even know how?"

Morris frowned, puzzled. "I know how! I think...." he trailed off.

Ani looked at the others and laughed. "Yeah well maybe you could have your bruddah show ya..." She said quickly looking at the ground.

Morris kept his puzzled look on his face. "Huh?" he asked.

Ditzy shook his head. 'Aww c'mon let's leave da stupid Ape to think about it." He said.

Ani smirked and sighed. 'yeah." She said and stared to walk away.

Morris stared after her. "Hey! We was talkin!" he yelled as he watched her walk away with the others.

Ani looked back at him and shrugged."Yeah well the whole thing went ovah both yer heads!" she shouted.

Morris kept staring after her, his mouth open. "But I'se only got one head, not two!" he protested, missing the "joke" completely.

Ani shook her head. "And he thinks I want him..' She smirked and walked away.

Just then Morris shook his head. "Boy it scares me how much she wants me," he thought aloud.
