Brisbane Beach:
It was a bright sunny day at Brisbane where the Heelers were having fun at the beach. Bluey and her little sister Bingo were having fun burying their father Bandit's legs in the sand. However, Chilli who was sitting underneath the shade wasn't feeling like herself. She had been very quiet and feeling down lately. She was lost in her own thoughts the whole time at the beach as she watches her daughters play in the sand with their father. She had a book of How To Be Happy sitting on her lap even though she hasn't read it
Later that day:
The family was driving back home from the beach. Bluey, Bingo, and Bandit were talking how much fun they had. However, Chilli was still feeling depressed the whole ride home. "Honey, Are you doing okay? You haven't spoken lately." Bandit said to his wife putting his hand onto her shoulder. "Hmm? Yeah...I-I'm doing okay." Chilli said in response telling her husband that she was okay but deep down she was miserable.
The Heeler Household:
It was 12:00 midnight and everyone was asleep. All except for Chilli who was in the bathroom cutting herself in her stomach with a razor blade. She cut very deep into her stomach and begins to cry as she gets flashbacks from how she lost her mother to her get a miscarriage as the icing on the cake. It's something that haunts her in a daily basis. She then puts the bloody razor blade down onto the sink and looks at herself in the mirror breathing heavily from the pain. "I don't wanna do this anymore." Chilli said in her thoughts feeling like there was nothing left to live for. She then looks down at her bleeding stomach and lays herself on the floor in a fetal position covering her face.
The Next Morning:
Chilli was in the kitchen cooking some eggs and bacon for breakfast. She had lots of bandages on her stomach from the self harm last night. She also had dark circles under her eyes not sleeping well last night. Bluey and Bingo walk into the kitchen to eat some breakfast. "G'morin, Mum!" Both Bluey and Bingo said greeting their mother as they take a seat in the table. "Oh...G'morin, Girls." Chilli said in response still in a depressed state. "G'Mornin, Girls!" Bandit said walking into the kitchen.
"G'morin Dad!" Bluey and Bingo said responding to their father's greeting. "G'morin, Honey" Bandit said giving Chilli a kiss on the cheek. But Chilli did not respond as she was to busy with preparing the food. Bandit then takes a seat in the table beside his two daughters. Chilli then places the plates of eggs and bacon to her family and takes a seat. "Hey Honey, Aren't you hungry?" Bandit said concerned about his wife appetite. "No, I'm not feeling hungry right now." Chilli said in response as she wasn't in the mood to eat. "Mum? What happened to your belly?" Bluey said looking at the bandages on her mother's stomach. "Oh! Uhhh- I... Uh- accidentally fell down the stairs...earlier this morning." Chilli said trying to find an excuse for her wounds not wanting her family to know she had actually hurt herself on purpose. "What!? Are you Okay!?" Bandit said worried about his wife. "Yeah...I-I'm fine. N-Nothing too serious...Just a couple of scratches...But I'm okay." Chilli said nervously scratching the back of her head.
Bandit then sighed in relief that his wife's injuries weren't fatal. "So, I was thinking that since it's a nice day out. Do you guys want to take a walk around the city?" Bandit said to his entire family who were finishing up their breakfast since it was a nice day to walk. "For real life?!" Bluey said with her iconic catchphrase. "Yes, For real life." Bandit said in response.
"For real, For real life?"
"Yes, For real, For real life."
"For real, For real, For real, For real, For real, For real, For real, For real, For real, For rea-"
"Yes! Bluey! We're going! You don't have to keep saying that so much." Bandit said in distress as Bluey wouldn't stop saying her catchphrase. "Hooray!" Bluey and Bingo said in excitement. Chilli then gets up from her chair to takes the empty plates to the sink.
Brisbane City:
The Heeler family took a walk around the city of Brisbane. They went to different stores and ate at a restaurant. Bandit was talking to his daughters and holding both of their hands meanwhile Chilli was walking behind them quietly trying to hide her bandages from other people walking by. Then Chilli stopped as she starts to hear voices in her head.
"You're a bad mother. You're the reason why you lost your first child in the first place." The voices said in Chilli's head as she looks around in paranoia wondering where the voices were coming from. "Why don't you do the whole world a favor and go kill yourself. You don't deserve to have a family."
"STOP!!! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" Chilli yelled at the top her lungs which caught her family attention including some bystanders. She then runs away leaving her entire family behind. "Wait! Chilli! Where Are You Going!?" Bandit said as he and his daughters run after Chilli. Chilli ran as fast as she could never looking back. She pushes some pedestrians out of her way not paying attention at what she was running into. She unthinkingly runs into the middle of a busy street causing a red pickup truck to run over her. "CHILLI!!!!!" Bandit screamed at the top of his lungs as he and his daughters watch Chilli get run over. He runs towards Chilli's unconscious body as Bluey and Bingo watched in horror. "SOMEBODY!!!! CALL AN AMBULANCE, PLEASE!!!! Bandit screamed as he kneeled on the middle of the street holding on his injured wife hoping that someone could help them.
