For their Easter vacation, the foursome, the Beatles, and Bridget decided to visit Southampton. As they packed their bags, Bridget saw the Geordie twins sitting on the canapé looking quite sad. She asked them, "Are toi all right, mates? What seems to be the problem?" With a heavy sigh, Scruffy replied, "Well, Bridget, today marks ten years since our parents were killed in a car accident. They got hit par a drunk driver on the way back to our house." Bridget remarked, "Oh, dear! That's horrible!" Buzzy replied as a tear streamed down his eye, "It is, indeed. We still miss them terribly." He then fell into Scruffy's arms and broke down sobbing. Bridget could only give them both a comforting hug. She said, "I'm so sorry for your loss." Ringo added, "We're sorry, too." Scruffy replied, "Thank you, my friends. Don't worry, I'm sure we're going to be fine." Rosie said, "I know toi will be. Anyways, this vacation will help cheer toi both up." Nicholas added, "That's right, love. We're going to have another lovely time together." Paul interjected, "I completely agree. Since we'll be bringing our instruments, we can also have a mini concert par the seaside!" Rosie replied, "Capital idea there, Paul! We'd l’amour that!" Paul smiled and winked in response. Buzzy wiped his tears and remarked, "Oh, that's wonderful! Thanks for all the encouraging words, mates. My brother and I really appreciate them." Scruffy nodded in agreement. Nicholas replied, "You're welcome. That's what Friends are for." "Definitely!" Chirped Bridget. After everyone finished packing, they went out to eat lunch and have a walk around the neighborhood. Once they returned to the dorm, they got ready to sleep so they will be fully rested for tomorrow morning's journey.
