"She? Didn't you take her to Jefferson's clinic?"

"No. That stupid Ace didn't pick up his phone and there was no one to take me there." I dropped on the couch. "I got Mrs. Welsh to drop me off at Walter's bridge and I went to look for Ace in the devil's den. I knew it was around there somewhere so I went looking for it."

Kai's face went pale. "Hey hey, you know Ace made us swear to never go there. He said he will burn everything in my room if I ever step foot there or let you and Rehan go. Do you want to get me in trouble?"

"It was an emergency," I complained. "I was panicking and he wasn't picking up his phone so I went there to look for him."

"And?" Kai sat next to him. "What did he say when he saw you?"

"He didn't. It was crazy over there. They were gaming drinking and...Then another guy there offered to help me and we took Momo to a nearby vet."

"Another guy? You went with some stranger?" Kai shook his head. "Francy..."

"It was an emergency," I repeated. "Thanks to him Momo is still alive."

"So what's his name. How are you going to repay him?"

I opened my mouth but nothing came out. "He never told me his name. And he didn't ask for anything."

Kai had an expression that pointed out how annoyed he was with me.

Then the door opened and Rehan and Ace entered the house together.

"You," I yelled at Ace. "Are dead to me."

Kai instantly pulled me back and whispered in my ear. "Don't tell him you went there. It will be war if you do."

I bit my lower lip. I knew I couldn't tell him, because Ace was pretty clear about us ever going there and Kai was scary when he was mad.

"What did I do?" Ace asked annoyed.

"Momo fell in paint and I called and called so we can take her to the vet." I gritted my teeth.

He pulled out his phone. "Oh shit. Sorry Francy, but we were playing and...then something happened..."

He then looked at my clothes. "Again? You painted your room again?"

"Momo seems fine." Rehan picked her up to pet her.

"So did you take her to the vet?" Ace asked.

My mind scrambled for the answers. "Mrs. Welsh drove me there. Momo is fine, she just needs to take some medicine. But you...Momo could have died and you were the only one with a car. "

"I said I'm sorry, but it's your fault you let the cat inside the room that you were painting in OCTOBER!"

I took a pillow from the couch and threw it at him.

He caught the pillow and threw it back in my face.

The ungrateful ... I took the pillows and started throwing them at him.

He grabbed one and came closer hitting me with the pillow. I hit him back with equal strength. Next thing we were pulling each other's hair and Rehan and Kai were pulling us apart.

"What is going on here?" Mom was standing at the door with the groceries looking at the crime scene.

A fist full of hair, four raging children, and the fumes of the paint were enough for every mother to go into a frenzy.

"Everybody.on the couch. Now!" She said dropping the groceries.
