Bret’s Confessional:
I’m feeling great, its been days and I haven’t seen that guy at all. We’ve been going out as a group again, its almost like all this never happened. I owe it all to Mark, even though he won’t admit the fact that he did anything. I think hes a bit embarrassed that he lost control like that, maybe he even scared himself.
“What are they watching” Disco gazes at Mark and Mick in front of the television.
“Children oriented tv” Val laughs while picking up some dirty socks and tossing them into the basket that Disco is holding, “it supposedly is very soothing and allows them to vegetate easier.”
“Marks been really quiet the last few days” Disco states while nudging Sam the kitten away from the laundry.
“I think hes just stressed thats all” Val picks up Sam and places him on the couch by Mark as the two of them walk to the laundry room.
Mick watches Mark out of the corner of his eye while they watch tv. He knows that there is something going through the big guy’s head, and he has a slight idea of what it is. “Do you want to talk about it” he says quietly.
“Not really” Mark says as Sam curls up on his lap, “theres nothing to talk about.”
“So you don’t want to tell me what happened at the theme park” Mick pries a little.
“I lost it thats all, I just wish I hadn’t” Mark doesn’t take his eyes off the tv, “it took so long for me to get control of my anger, and I lost it for a while there, so I’m just trying to come to terms with it.”
“Hey I understand completely” Mick says turning back to the tv, “theres stuff I’m not proud of either.”
“In the kitchen you idiot” Mark yells at the episode of Blues Clues, “man that guys dumb.”
Mick just smiles to himself knowing this won’t last long.
Randy’s Confessional:
Life at the house seems to be a lot happier over the last few days. Bret is beaming at the fact that he is no longer plagued by that guy. Mark is quiet but I guess he’ll be fine. Val dates every night and helps Disco clean every day. And I have a kitten that is not bothering any one.
“Wheres Sam” Randy asks Val as he comes out of the confessional room.
“Sleeping on Mark” Val gestures towards the couch.
“Come here Sam” Randy whispers at the cat as he sits down not wanting to disturb Mark who is now sleeping. The cat stretches and walks over to Randy, Mark begins to stir after he leaves. Randy just watches for a bit until Sam returns to Mark’s lap causing him to sleep quietly again.
“Weird isn’t it” Mick says still staring at the tv.
“What is” Randy sighs.
“Animal always seem to know when some one is in turmoil.” Mick turns the tv off and walks out of the room.
