Hey, all. Don't be alarmed. I posted some of chapter 2 of my story on here for today. If you are interested, tell me what you think. It's long. LOL You can visit my original site, gwinggirl100. ( my button is in my profile.) ^_^
“Max, we never wanted you to follow in Irvine’s shadow, Max. We want you to do the right things on life. We don’t want you to fail in everything just because things get tough, we want you to be the exact opposite of Irvine. “ says Duo consolating his son.
“ Don’t get us wrong, Max, we love Irvine, we worry about him everyday. There is not one moment that goes by when we don’t think of a way to help him with his problems.” Says Duo.
“ I understand. This had always been on my mind, I just had to talk to you guys about this.” Says Max.

Some time passes by and Duo decides to go on the roof to look at the stars, but finds that Irvine was way ahead of him.
“ I wouldn’t expect you of all people to go star gazing” says Duo.
“ I didn’t have anything better to do,” says Irvine in a solemn tone.
“ Is that so? I would’ve expected you to just sit up in your room all night long doing absolutely nothing like you always do.” Says Duo.
“ Irvine ignores his comment and keeps staring at the night sky. Duo notices and joins him. After a moment passes by, Duo just decides to spit out the question he never thought he would ask his oldest son in two years.
“ Irvine, What’s wrong with you?”
“ Irvine reacts to the question. It’s not what he would’ve expected to hear at this moment, he would’ve expected this question to be asked whenever they would get into an argument, or a confrontation that was planned. But wasn’t planned for Irvine, Nor his Father.

The next morning is the usual; Hilde’s alarm clock rings at 7:00 a.m. she wakes up, Duo wakes up because of the alarm clock, he gets fustrated, tries to go back to sleep, Hilde notices and wakes him, She goes down stairs, cooks breakfast, Calls the children to get ready for school, they come down stairs, Chaos ensues at the breakfast table, Irvine comes downstairs, grabs only a piece of toast, walks out of the door without saying goodbye, Lily and Phoebe talk about Lily’s crush on Jin, Duo gags, everyone finishes and leaves out the door, the children board the capsule, Duo and Hilde go back to work on the Yard, they talk about their children, Duo has a new customer, hilde is always running around the neighborhood, they finish work, go home, the kids arrive, and more stress comes later in the day.

Lily and Misha walk through the town, while the other girls stayed at the little shopping outlet downtown.
" How's your dad doing?" asks Misha.
" I wish he was better..." said Lily.
" What's the problem?" she asks.
" Well...it's Irvine. I think that they got into a huge argument last night." she says.
" Why?" Misha asks.
" Well, Irvine did have a rough time with Jetta." says Lily.
" Yeah they did, didn't they? " asked Misha.
" Yeah. I almost forgot about it myself." Lily says.
" I didn't. I pretty much don't care about the decisions that she makes..." says Misha.
" Why Misha? You ought to have a right to worry about the decisions she makes. I mean, she is your sister..."

Irvine walks around the town and is eventually spoted by Lei-Mei.
" Looking for your sister?" she asks.
" No." says Irvine.
" Well she's downtown with Misha just in case you were wondering." she says.
Irvine keeps walking and he sees Lily and Misha talking together.
" Lily I know who she is..." Misha says folding her arms.
" Well, you have a right to worry about her...Not every sibling in the world makes the right decisions."
" what are you getting at, Lily?" Misha asks suddenly.
" I want you to say it..."
" Say what?"
" That you're worried about her."
" I'm not saying that."
" Why not?"
" Because the decision she made was stupid, and I'm more angry with her than worried."
Misha then sees Irvine and she excuses herself.
" Irvine did you hear all that?"
" Every word." he says.
" Irvine, it doen't matter how callous you act towards everyone, we are still going to love you and care about you..."
" Lily, everyone should just stay out of my problems. I does'nt concern them." he says.
" why can't you just understand that we all want to just support you?!" Lily says.
She storms off and Irvine continues to walk in the town.

" Duo, where's Phoebe?" asks Hilde clearing the house of random things.
" Uh, I think she went to go with lily downtown.." he says.
" What about max?" she asks.
" Well I took him to the station to go to school, and he told me to go on and he had to go to the bathroom, and I left."
" You left him?" she stops suddenly.
" Uh...yeah.." he says.
Hilde looks at him for a moment and asks...

" Duo, are you helping him skip school?"


(To be continued)
