Later that day, Coop and Dennis spent all of their time at the skate park. They hung out with Harley and Lorne, shot some vids with them and then they ate ice cream together.
"So cat boy, you getting along well with your sister's weird cat? Haven't seen you complain for a while." Said Lorne while grinning.
"Yeah cat dude, give us some funny shots already! We're bored!" said Harley agreeing with his older brother.
"Yeah, in your dreams guys. I couldn't even dreamt it but it's not that bad with me and Kat anymore. So bad luck, you're out of materials again." Said Coop smiling.
"Man what a bummer. But anyways i'll definetly catch you ridiculed one day, and i'll be sure that i'm recording every second of it ahahah!" said Lorne.
"Knock it out you agents of chaos." Said Dennis with a calmed manner.
"Yeah, yeah whatever. Wanna go to the mall after that? I heard some new Captain Blasteroid ray guns came out, we can check them out!"
Boys nodded with enthusiasm.
Kat was thinking about his next prank while lying on sofa. The last prank he was about to pull was pretty good but when he saw the boy in a matter like that, he just couldn't do it. He was kinda angry with himself but hey, he wasn't that cruel anymore. But still he had to pull something big in order to prove his point to the boy: nobody messes with the Kat. The doorbell's ringing broke his focus. He looked out to hall to see who came, but when Millie opened the door he saw Coop and just rolled his eyes.
"Aren't you a little bit late dork? Dinner's almost ready!" said Millie while going back to the living room.
"Shut it, as if you always worry about me." said Coop sarcastically while following behind her back.
"Maybe i worry, maybe not. You'd never know…" said Millie, after that she stopped for a moment.
"Hey Coop. I know it's out of nowhere… but i just wanted to ask." Said Mille with a serious tone. That was really uncharacteristic of her.
"Huh, what's with that all of a sudden? What did you want to ask?"
Even Kat was intrigued about the topic now.
"I know tomorrow you and daddy will go there. I never knew her like you because i was so little back then, i couldn't even remember her. But i know that she was really important to us. So maybe i thought you would like to take her picture with you when you visit her. And gave her a good memorial" as she was saying these words she took the picture out of her pocket and gave it to Coop.
As soon as Coop saw her picture, he froze. Of course he remembered her: her beautiful long and black hair, her brown eyes, her soft skin, her warm smile… but confronting her all so sudden was just… so painful. Coop tried to play it cool but he could feel his blood withdrawing from every limb and part of his.
"Coop… are you okay? You don't look so well." Said Mille with a worried face.
She was surprised but there were someone who was even more surprised: Kat. He has seen Coop shocked, surprised, pissed and all but he'd never seen him this much… terrified, bewildered. It was almost funny, the look on his face. Kat would remember this.
"Yeah i-it's just uh… i mean… yeah thanks Millie. But maybe another time huh? Flowers would be just fine for now." He tried to control his voice's shaking but it wasn't enough.
"Coop are you really okay? I didn't mean to upset you i just thought that-"
"Millie! It's fine, you didn't upset me at all. It's just that… seeing her always shakes my heart and… i need more time to process those feelings. So keep this picture with you for now okay? I promise i'll take it back later." Said Coop, he was getting a bit better.
"Oh sorry, okay. I'm sorry that i can't relate to your sorrow for now and i feel bad about it so i just wanted to-"
"I know Millie, i know. Thank you really, you're so sweet. And hey don't be so hard on yourself you were so little back then! Of course you can't remember everything." Said Coop and gave her a side hug.
"Like i said, i'll take it later so still keep it. Now come on let's eat, i'm starving here!"
"Okay okay jeez, after you." Said Millie. After seeing Coop move towards to the kitchen, she put the photo on the table and followed him behind.
Kat went to the table side to see the photo that made Coop terrified. He glanced at the photo to see something odd but he couldn't understand a thing. What was he terrified of? The lady in the photo was nice looking and pure. What could be the reason, did she do something bad to Coop? Was she someone like old lady Munson? İf so, he could understand that. Even though Kat couldn't figure out the reason why, he decided to use this chance. He was going to make Coop regret all of his pranks that he pulled against him 'till this day. He took the photo and then went upstairs to his base, he needed to plan his next big thing.
Rest of the night was calm, Burtonburger family ate their dinner then watched some TV together. Before sending kids to their bed, Burt said "Remember Millie, i'm going to drop you to the pool party tomorrow. Be nice to Fiona in there okay? Don't be rude to your hostess"
"Okay daddy no worries. I'll be a good girl as always!" said Millie with a cheerful smile.
"Good to hear. I'll pick you up around 4 pm alright? Try to have fun, don't worry about us." said Burt.
"Okay daddy!"
"And remember kids we're leaving at 10 am tomorrow so go to bed early okay? Try to get some sleep."
"Okie!"
"Alright dad." said Coop with a rather monotone voice. His thoughts were getting a bit too loud so it was hard to focus for him.
Kids went to bed after that. Coop was lying on his bed, thinking about what was about to come tomorrow. He was really anxious but he knew that he had to do this. After spending some time to concentrate to his breathing, he fell asleep.
