The Dark Stranger Page #2

---

- Yeah, I'm pretty sure I found

it too.

- I'm just saying it'd be nice

if

came and listen in the same room

sometime.

- Next time, buddy.

- Let me guess the wrath of

Leah.

- She's had a tough time.

- I'm aware we all have.

- And everyone deals

with things differently.

That's why I need you

to be patient with her.

- Look I'm trying.

But sooner or later she's

gonna have to suck it up

and join the land of the living

again.

- She's doing her best.

- No, no she's not.

And I'm sick of it.

I'm sick of you babying her

'cause I'm a part of

this family too you know.

- Not everything has to be about

you.

- Apparently nothing does

'cause Leah she's your

she's your little angel, right?

And that nothing else matters,

right?

- Toby,

we'll talk about this later.

He didn't mean that.

- Yeah, he did.

I'm sorry.

I'm trying. I'm really trying.

- I know you are,

I know.

- I can do that.

- Okay.

- Okay.

What are you doing

please don't touch that.

- No, it's all right, honey.

I'm just sending Mr. Toth

some of your mom's paintings

so he can pick what he wants for

the show.

- Can you just take a

picture and email it, please?

- Honey, no he really wants

to study the original.

- Okay, I don't care what he

wants he can't have this one.

- Honey, it's all right we'll

- get it back.

- - Dad, please

can you just give it to me, dad?

Look what you made me do.

- I didn't.

- Okay, just let me have it.

- I'm so sorry.

Leah, I didn't realize that

it meant so much to you.

- Where's Toby isn't he

supposed to go with you?

- Yeah, he's not going to school

today.

I think he's got a fever.

- God, my ass.

He probably just has a project

or a test

or something he doesn't wanna

do.

- Well, look I don't have time

to get into this with you right

now.

He's sick.

- Are you seriously buying this?

- Please just check on him

later?

My ta mark is coming by to

pick these up later so...

- Dad,

can't you just take them to

school and give them to him?

- No, no, I'm in class all day,

all right.

Please, I'd really appreciate

it.

- I know, dad, I'm not ready for

that.

Look, if you wanna be a part of

this

stupid art show that's fine.

I don't wanna be involved.

- Okay Leah, I don't

ask for much, all right.

I need your help it's important.

Please, can you do this for me?

- Okay, I'll try.

- Thank you.

Thank you that's all I'm asking.

Okay.

I'm just gonna leave these

by the door, all right.

- Oh my god I knew it.

You are such a little con

artist.

- Whatever, Leah, move out of

the way.

- Where are you going?

- Not to school if that's

what you're asking.

- You can't just skip school,

Toby.

- Watch me.
