He walks into the house, locking the door behind him.

It is exactly what it looks like.” He said, shaking his head, “Oh, please don’t tell Dad!” I whispered. “No, I’ll be telling my brother, you can deal with the fallout as you clearly know what you're doing is against what he has told you.” He said as he looked into my trolley confused.“How are you planning on getting all that home?” He asked, “It’s the list my dad gave me,” I said, he started to laugh, “He knew what you were up to kiddo,” My uncle said laughing, he couldn’t stop laughing, as we looked on in confusion. “What now?” I asked, he finally stopped laughing, “It’s what he used to do, and that’s the same list mum would give him.” Oh, fuck I am in trouble, bigger than I thought.“Oh, man...” I groane

I know what she just went and done!” I snapped, “Come on man calm down just a little.” He’s using that voice he used to use on me when we were kids.“Really?” I asked as he let out a loud sigh, “Yes, she is your sixteen-year-old daughter who has just lost her mother Lee. Cut her some slack, you've punished her enough, you know you have if I’m pointing this out to you.” He said, I looked at him shocked, “What do you mean by that?” I asked.He holds his hand up doing the counting, “You’ve removed her door, all of her comfortable items, and made her do yard work.
