The truth: Vivian had avoided her father all of last night. They had a fight, just like all parents and children do, though when the two argued, it was few and far between. Months of frustration had been building up inside of them both as her grandfather naturally sat in his recliner and watched, his head going back and forth between the two as if watching a tennis match as the words flew around the room. Hurtful things had been said until Viv finally walked out of the house without a word. Running to the stables, she would only stop when her heart felt as if it was now beating in her throat. The next few hours came by in a flash as she brought the black mare that she cherished so much out of her stable and took her for a few practice laps. Then back to the house she went, walking in with a tiny apologetic smile to her grandfather and upstairs. She fell asleep without meaning to. 

Waking up at 7am, Vivian would take a shower, towel dry and brush her hair, dress in her usual leather jacket, black combat boots, skinny jeans and grey t-shirt, Vivian would tell her father where she was going while eating a bowl of cereal. The two had a friendly conversation and then she walked to the diner. Giving hugs and smiles all around, the girl ordered a cup of coffee to go. 

Walking beside Kenneth was awkward, really, the two of them not actually speaking. The girl would keep her eyes on her cup of coffee, shifting to her feet every so often as she kept her head down. Coming upon the house, she would inspect it momentarily. The pealing paint, termite eaten steps, broken and boarded windows... Viv was instantly curious. Gina was in for an exploration, and so was Toc. She had a feeling Yuki would do what Erika decided and Ken... she had no idea.

[color=a2d39c]"Oh come on, Toc,"[/color] she proceeded to tease the boy, [color=a2d39c]"You know you can't just bust the damn thing down.[/color]
