He continue playing with his friends.
My mind wasn't at rest so I told my brother it time for us to go home but he object, he said he wanna sleep over; I told him we should go and check maybe the house is first and after that he can come back if he want,We bade our friends goodbye and left.
On the way my brother keep telling me how he beat his friend in the ps2 game which I was also there with them.He keep ranting but my mind wasn't with him he ask me what is wrong and I told him my insist tells me that my dad is around,he told me to forget it that he is very sure he is not around.
