Penelope got to her bed and asked Amber, "How did Jackson's death affect you?"
"I still don't talk to my parents." Amber answered.
"Why?" Penelope asked back.
"My parents made him go to camp." Amber replied.
"Did he care for it?" Penelope questioned.
"He learned to, but if my parents on the first year didn't make him none of this would have started." Amber stated.
"I think the killer would have still been the killer even if your parents didn't force Jackson to go to camp." Penelope said in an aggressive tone.
"Whatever." Amber stated, "So how did Reagan's death affect you?"
"Weirdly enough, I talked to my parents more than ever." Penelope stated.
"Then why don't you call them?" Amber asked.
"I need my space and they're okay with it." Penelope responded.
"That's unrealistic," Amber stated.
"To you," Penelope said back.
"Why do you date him?" Penelope questioned.
"James?" Amber asked. Penelope nodded and Amber continued, "I don't know I just do."
"I've never dated anyone. How is it like?" Penelope asked.
"It's nice. I'm thinking more about it. I think I date James because he's cool and just chills out with me." Amber answered.
"Cool." Penelope said. Amber nodded. Amber started the car and they went back to the dorm. Amber got out of the car. Penelope followed. Penelope decided not to go to the dorms for a minute. Penelope saw a round man with dark brown hair and eyes. He looked like a kid she knew from high school. High school, Penelope started thinking about how she never kept up with her high school friends. It had only been a week so; they should respond her. Penelope went to her dorm and emailed her friend, Jenny. Jenny was the only of her friends that answered her email. Penelope emailed, "Hey what's up." Penelope decided to get dinner since Jenny would probably be off playing tennis. Penelope started thinking about it and the more she thought about her hobbies she realized she had been too focused on college so; she should try getting back into her hobbies.

Penelope's old hobbies were soccer and designing dominos designs. Penelope had been too focused on her interior design major. Penelope went to one of her boxes to get her dominos. "Hey, can I set up my dominos?" Penelope asked. "You set up dominos and create fun designs?" Amber asked. "Yeah," Penelope answered. "Cool, I'm going to hang out with James but when I get back, I want to see it." Amber said. "Yeah, okay," Penelope said. Amber went outside and Penelope started setting up the dominos. An hour later, Penelope set up a small domino design. It was just a small shell design with red dominos. Penelope quietly waited for Amber. Penelope started cooking some quesadillas. Penelope liked her quesadillas very well done. After, Penelope made her quesadillas and ate them, Penelope waited for more time for Amber.
Amber came after an hour. Since it was 9 pm Penelope was on her bed watching a Halloween movie. "Hey, did you make the design?" Amber asked. "Yeah, turn on the lights." Penelope said. Amber turned on the light. The small shell design lay on the floor. Penelope flicked the dominos and the dominos fell. "Good, job," Amber said. "Nay, it's nothing, anybody can lay dominos." Penelope remarked. "So, going to bed now?" Amber asked. "Yeah, let's go to sleep," Penelope said. Amber changed into black shorts and her biggest grey shirt and climbed into bed. Penelope, who was already in her pajamas, turned off the lights and climbed into bed.
