The past month was was good. We got 4 more kids, Ash stopped holding in his feelings, and we found a dog and named him Skipper. 

I was sitting outside when I saw Sing pull in. I walked up to him,

"Hey Sing." I said. "What brings you here?" When he looked at me I could tell something was wrong.

"Hi Eiji." He said. 

"Are you okay?" I asked. 

"Something happened, and I need to talk to you and Ash about it." Sing said. "Is Ash here?"

"Ash is inside." I said. 

"Cool." Sing said and walked inside with me following him. Ash was on the couch in the living room,

"Hey Sing." He said. 

"Hi Ash. I need to tell you and Eiji something." Sing said.

"Sure Sing." Aslan said. Sing at on the couch next to Ash. 

"You know that me and Yut-Lung were having issues with the Vietnamese Mafia." Sing started. 

"Uh huh." I said nodding. 

"Yut-Lung invited them over to meet with us and have a meeting in his office. I was out and he didn't tell me he was gonna meet with them, I came back went into his office." Sing said. "By this point the people from the Mafia left, and when I called for Yut-Lung and went into his office, he was dead on the floor." I was shocked.

"Oh my god, Sing I'm so sorry." Aslan said to him. 

"What happened? Did they kill him?" I asked. 

"I don't know. I checked his body for puncture or bullet wounds but didn't find any. I then I smelt his breath and I smelled poison." Sing said and started crying.

I just came back from running errands and was walking around the mansion looking for Yut-Lung.

"Lee!" I called. The only place he would be was in his office. I walked into his office and he was laying on the ground in front of his desk.

"Yut-Lung!" I yelled and dropped my stuff, running up to him. I picked up his head and put him in my lap,

"Lee! Wake up!" His skin was cold and he wasn't breathing. He's dead.

"No!" I said and immediately began checking his body for any wounds that could've been inflicted upon him. I didn't find any,

"What could've killed you Lee?" I asked myself. I then thought of something. I picked up his head and smelt his breath. It smelled like poison, he was poisoned. 

"No. Why my Yut-Lung?" I whispered to myself, holding him. This is when I cried, Yut-Lung, my boyfriend, was murdered.

I couldn't believe my ears. Yut-Lung dead. I admit he wasn't my favorite on earth, but I felt horrible for Sing. I may not like Yut-Lung, but Yut-Lung and Sing loved each other. Eiji hugged Sing. I also hugged Sing,

"I'm so sorry." I said. I got off the couch and opened the front door,

"Kids! Come inside and tackle Sing with love, he's sad! Come inside and comfort him!" I yelled. They all came piling inside and tackled Sing onto the couch hugging him. I smiled at the scene in front of me. Eiji smiled and started crying. 

"Oh no! Eiji's crying now, guys hug him." I told the kids. They let go of Sing and tackled Eiji. Sing stood up,

"Oh god. Well I gotta go plan the funeral." He said wiping his eyes. "He's still dead. I'll see you guys later." Sing then left. Then Skipper pranced into the room and jumped on the couch. 

"Skipper!" The kids said and pet the dog. I sat on the couch between everyone and scratched the dog behind the ears. 

"Why'd you name him Skipper again?" Evan asked. 

"Skipper was the name of an old friend of mine." I said. 

"What happened to him?" Sally asked. 

"He was shot in the lungs right in front of me." I said. "He was 12, and I was 17 at the time." 

"Dang." Jeremy said. "He was my age." I nodded.

"Indeed he was. That was the start of a long line of loss." I said.

"After hearing that we need the whole life story." Isaac said. "Start from the earliest you can remember, it doesn't have to be detailed because we know you're also traumatized." I laughed,

"Are you guys really interested in my life story?" I asked. 

"Uhm yes." Josh said nodding. 

"We wanna know the tea." Remy said hugging a pillow to their chest. 

"Now spill it." Ethan said. 

"Fine." I said. "I'll give you guys my entire life story, get snacks and blankets because we might be here all day."  

"Ooh!" Oliver said and ran into the kitchen. A bunch of other kids following him.

"Aslan are you sure?" Eiji asked me.

"I'm sure." I said.
