Door creaking,
"Oh, you're finally awake," said a calm voice as the little girl looked up at the voice. It was the same clown who had kidnapped her when checking the mail. However, the clown wore different makeup than when he kidnapped her. He also had more sophisticated clothes, but they still had the clown aesthetic. The clown hand soon went to his mouth making a shush gesture before pointing to the table with a plate with food on it. Soon after the clown went up the stairs and locked the door leaving the girl alone to eat the food. A few minutes later the door swung open while the girl was eating the food, it was a clown in a more casual attire with no makeup on. The man had blonde hair and introduced himself as Shinji while the girl kept eating. "That's surprising, no sense of urgency," asked Shinji as the girl kept eating the food given to her. The man paced back and forth with the girl now looking at him for his bizarre behaviour. Noticing the girl Shinji grinned while saying "Seems like your composure is finally going away Maria". Shinji's face then lit up while saying "I have unfortunate news, Maria, you you not an "A" or an "S" so I am afraid I have to do away with you" while kneeling. Shinji soon got up and left for the door but not before notifying the girl that he drug the food. However, the girl just tilted her head at the comment which caused Shinji to hold his head in frustration. "How come you taking this so well, I kidnapped you and you are just acting like this is an inconvenience to you" asked Shinji. "Well you going to get caught by the cops" replied Maria defiantly. "Oh, you finally talked and that is your threat, I've got to say it was very predictable," said Shinji in a rather disappointed tone. Shinji soon turned to leave again while keeping an eye on the girl so she didn't escape. Shinji made it up the stairs and decided to make his breakfast but he had to go outside first to meet a friend. The friend was more of an acquaintance than a friend, his name Is Kirby. Kirby was in a hurry so quickly handed him a ticket to Wimpy Oak. He was rushing and saying an emergency happened and he couldn't go. Shinji asked him if he could receive a refund but Kirby said he couldn't since the amusement park didn't have a refund policy. Kirby begs him to use it so it is not wasted before running off just as Shinji is about to say something. Shinji just looked in shock at the current situation while saying in his mind that was rather weird even for Kirby. A smile crept on Shinji's face as he thought about how to use his ticket to Wimpy Oak. It will be the perfect place to dispose of the girl as the girl hasn't seen his face as he wears a fake skin mask when down there.
Knock, Knock..
"Coming," said Vincent opening the door to see Keiko Kei's sister arriving to pick up her younger brother. Kei ran excitedly while hugging his sister just as Keiko exclaimed thank you to Vincent for his help. Kei ran to Vincent while bowing his head and saying thank you to Vincent for all he had done for him for the day. Vincent smiled at Kei's comment before kneeling to pat his hair while exclaiming "No Problem". Keiko then calls Kei over but before leaving asks Vincent a question. "Does Jeff know about any possible apartments available?" asked Keiko. Confused by the sudden request Vincent said that he isn't that close with Jeff and didn't hear him talk about any potential available apartments. That is when Samuel and Jeff arrive home which causes Vincent to say in his head you got to be kidding me. Jeff told Keiko to sit down and see what he could do. Samuel made teas for everyone and hot chocolate for Kei while Jeff made a call to a friend. Out of curiosity, Vincent asked Keiko if she was thinking of moving and Keiko responded with a yes. Once the tea and hot chocolate were done, Jeff entered the room and explained what he knew from his recent call. Jeff said that her Uncle Hershel is opening an apartment in a month. Keiko then asked Jeff how he knew their uncle with him saying they were drinking buddies and said your family is infamously known throughout the town. "Surely you should know as you are the oldest daughter," said Jeff which caused Keiko to smile weakly. Samuel hit Jeff in the stomach which caused Jeff to apologize for being rude. Jeff then explained to Keiko that her uncle Hershel works as an amusement park ride operator at Wimpy Oak so she should go there for more details. "Thanks for the information Jeff" responded Keiko with Jeff saying no problem. At that moment she excused herself and Kei as they began to leave. Vincent and the others said goodbye to Keiko and Kei but before they fully left Samuel stated that Vincent could join as he could give Hershel his fish while pointing at a cooler. "Hershel asked us to catch some salmon and we did, placing them in that cooler" explained Samuel who glanced at Vincent with a smirk. I would love to give it to him but I have to work tomorrow so Vincent dear would do that errand for me while giving puppy dog eyes. Vincent wanted to reject but knew he couldn't win against Samuel when he acted like this. Vincent relented and said yes and then Samuel suggested we go together especially because of the recent missing case. Keiko said she was okay with it with Kei saying he was okay with it too so Vincent said he was fine with it too. Keiko then said guess I see you tomorrow awkwardly before leaving with Kei. Once they had left Vincent facepalmed himself while Jeff started to giggle and wear a smirk on his face. This causes Vincent to just say in an irritated voice "Shut up".
