Bringing Books Home (Transcript)

Zoe and Josh were completely traumatised by what happened the day before. After sending that message to Kandace and Sofia, decided to bring some books over to the Bessons' house. But sneakily so that Addison won't know.

Sofia: So which one of Josh, Hayden and Zoe's books should we bring home?

Kandace: Anything.

Sofia: At what form?

Kandace: What do you mean? Oh yeah, Josh is dyslexic. You know what, just bring any book as long as they're not heavy.

Liam and Isabelle went up to the 2 girls who are packing up books.

Liam: Who are these for?

Kandace: These are for Josh, Hayden and Zoe.

Liam: Why? What happened to them?

Sofia: Something happened in their home, Addison came in and abused them as well as banning them from going to school.

Isabelle: Well that's good, but you must be careful with Addison.

Kandace: Yeah, we know.

Liam: We'll send these books in tomorrow, it's not safe to come to the Bessons' house now.

Sofia: How do you know?

Isabelle: I have connections with the house and it seems like Addison is having sex with Ray.

Everyone: Eww...

Isabelle: I know, we're going to bring these books in tomorrow.

Later that night in the Bessons' house, Josh and Zoe couldn't seem to sleep after what happened.

Josh: Zoe, I cant sleep.

Zoe: Me too. It seems like Hayden is asleep.

Hayden: Guys, I'm awake. How are you guys awake when it's the middle of the night?

Josh: We can't get enough of the stress you know. Because of Addison.

Zoe: And how many times she has hit us.

Josh: With a ruler? Oh please.

Song: Middle of the Night by The Vamps and Martin Jensen

Josh: #I keep coming back to that moment #Where it all fell apart #So I try and drink my emotions #'Til I can't feel my heart #And I don't understand #How you slipped through my hands #And I do all I can #To get you out of my head #So when I call you in the middle of the night #And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you #Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time #I got so much of my loving to give you #In the middle of the night #In the middle of the night #I need you #In the middle of the night#

Hayden: #I've got no good explanation #For what I put you through #Managing my expectations #Is what I never do #Yeah, and I don't understand #How you slipped through my hands #And I'm trying all I can #To forget you again#

All: #So when I call you in the middle of the night #And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you #Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time #I got so much of my loving to give you #In the middle of the night #In the middle of the night #I need you#

Zoe: #So when I call you in the middle of the night #And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you #Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time #I got so much of my loving to give you#

All: #In the middle of the night #In the middle of the night #I need you #In the middle of the night #In the middle of the night #I need you#

Josh: What are we going to do?

Zoe: Let's play some songs, maybe it'll make us feel better.

Zoe turned on her Bluetooth lamp which played calming music. Then, the 3 kids went back to sleep. The next morning, Sofia, Kandace and Liam went to the Bessons' house and knocked on the door. Ray opened it and he was surprised.

Sofia: Hi, you must be Ray.

Ray: Yup, that's me. What is it?

Kandace: We are bring home Zoe, Josh and Hayden's books from school. Oh, and Zoe's favourite novel by Roald Dahl.

Ray: Oh, Matilda by Roald Dahl, that's Zoe's favourite book. But is it borrowed from the library?

Kandace: Actually, the librarian decided to give it to Zoe because she knows that it's her favourite book to read.

Liam: And I got some books for Josh too.

Ray: Thank you all so much. I'll carefully bring in these books to Josh, Hayden and Zoe's room without Addison knowing.

Sofia: Batch by batch because they might be heavy.

Ray took Zoe's batch of books first and put them in front of the kids' door. He did the same thing for Hayden. But once he was about to get Josh's books, he noticed that Addison is getting up.

Ray: Everyone, get out of here?

Liam: Why? Who's coming?

Ray: Addison.

Sofia: Quick, we gotta run.

Ray: Also, thanks for the books. I need to find a way to hide these books.

Ray ran upstairs to the kids' room and knocked on the door. Zoe immediately opened it.

Zoe: What is it?

Ray: Take these books in, Addison is coming.

Josh: Quick, we need to hide them somewhere.

Zoe: Under our beds,

Zoe, Hayden and Josh hid their books under their beds and closed the door to prevent Addison from entering. They also grabbed their hidden breakfast from the bed and started eating. After eating, Zoe locked the door so that Addison won't see what they're doing.

Josh: Is she gone?

Zoe: I dunno, she just woke up.

Hayden: Use your glasses, we need to see.

Zoe pressed a button on her glasses to see what's going on between Addison and Ray. Addison is just stealing breakfast from the cupboard but luckily, the kids got it. But she is complaining about no Vegemite which Josh stole.

Addison: Ugh! Why is there no Vegemite?

Ray: I dunno.

Addison: It's those kids.

Ray: Look, you can't blame everything on Josh and Zoe, they are in secondary school. And Josh is a special needs kid so he needs to be treated with respect.

Addison: I don't care.

Zoe: Wow, she blames everything on us.

Josh: Yeah, for absolutely no reason.

Hayden: And that's the thing I don't like about her. She blames stuff on us.

Zoe: That's not a good character. Let's just read some books.

The kids sat down on the floor reading their books their friends brought from school.

Hayden: So what are you reading?

Josh: No, I'm listening to the audio book version of it on audible.

Hayden: Why? Oh, you're dyslexic.

Josh: Yup.

The kids continued reading (and listening) and they immediately felt like they were back in school. Before they left the programming club and closed it and joined the theatre club.

Zoe: Wow, I feel like we're in school already.

Josh: Yeah.

Hayden: It's cool.

Zoe: I hope Addison won't find out.

Hayden: Or else we're in big danger.

Josh: Yeah.

The kids were having fun reading and listening to the audio books. That's when they heard a knock on the door so they immediately hid their books under their desks. And Josh kept his iPod and earphones under the pillow. The door opened and it was Addison.

Addison: What are you guys doing?

Zoe: We've just cleaned our room.

Addison: Hmm... I heard that those hobos from your school just brought in books.

Hayden: Uh oh.

Addison: Let me see under those beds.

Josh: This is not going to be good.

Zoe: Yeah.
