Something went snap in my head, and I took a step forward.

Rens eyes went really big, and he walked backwards a bit. “Hey, calm down, all right? Look, Im going.” He grabbed his clothes and started

putting them on. I dont think he noticed his T-shirt was inside out. “No need to pay me, okay? On the house. Ill see myself out.”

He grabbed his shoes and ran down the stairs with them. I heard the front door go so quick he mustve still not got his shoes on when he

went outside.

I sat on the floor and looked at my picture of Ren. For a moment, I wanted to throw it out the window, but I thought Larry might be cross. So I

just went downstairs and waited for Larry to come home.

I waited a long time. It got way later than Larry normally comes home. Im not sure how late it got, cause in the end I fell asleep on the sofa,

but Larry still never came home.

I didnt feel like going in to work next day. I called my boss and told him I was sick. I thought maybe if I waited around the house, Larry would

come back. I didnt know what to do, so I called my mum, but she was working. I didnt know where Larry couldve been. I thought maybe hed had an accident or something and was in hospital or dead, and that was why

he never came home. I didnt know how you found out about stuff like that. I thought maybe I should ring the hospital or the police or something,

but Larry and me, were not family or nothing. I thought they probably wouldnt tell me. I thought maybe I should ring Larrys family, because if something bad had happened to him, the police would have told them. So I looked up

the number and called them, but it just went to Larrys mums voice on the answerphone. I didnt know what to say, so I didnt leave a message. I

thought if I left a message asking if Larry was okay, and hed just stayed out at a mates or something, hed be really mad at me for making his

mum get all worried. I didnt want him to have something else to be mad at me for. So I just stayed in the house all day. I didnt really feel like eating nothing, but I thought maybe I should, cause Mum always says its really

important to get three meals a day, even though shes always on a diet. But when I looked in the cupboard, we was all out of bread and stuff, so

I didnt bother.

I didnt know what to do. I watched TV for a bit, but I kept forgetting what I was watching. Then I put on a Charlie Chaplin DVD, but it just

made me sad. I didnt feel much like painting or nothing, even, but I thought maybe if I drew Larry from memory itd make me feel better, so I

went up to the studio to get my stuff, but I forgot Rens picture would be there.
