Chapter 10 - The death of a loved one

With two rowdy teenagers in the household, how could there not be a teen party? Troy invited everyone from school over for a party while the family was away.


Troy tried to make a connection with the ladies especially at this party, and he seemed to get along with Ashlee Bird at the party the most, especially after he found out their star signs were compatable.



As the night drew on, the police eventually showed up because they were making too much noise. Everyone had to leave and the parents were called.


However when Bop and Bernard got home, Dora immediately got the blame and was grounded! Because Troy gets along with everyone so well in the family, he never seems to get in trouble, so Bop and Bernard immediately assumed Dora, with her insane tendancies was the cause of this drama. Needless to say, Dora was not happy with getting the blame!



Later that night, after everyone went to bed, a darkness fell over the household. It was time for Bernard to pass on!



Bop and the rest of the family lept out of bed in the middle of the night to find Bernard fading away into the spirit world.



The family could not hold back their tears as the Grim reaper came to take Bernard into the spirit world. Bernard had a good life and he loved his family very much. He will be greatly missed!



Everett decided to do the honours and take Bernard's ashes to the local cemetary and lay him to rest. Once Bernard passed away, everyone found it hard to cope with the grief and they even let the house go into disrepair as Bernard was no longer around to fix things.


 
Dora had a horrible mix of anger and grief and despite being grounded, she just had to get out of the house and speak to somebody to let this grief off her chest so she visited her aunty Beep! As she visited Beep's house, she soon found out that her uncle Gavin also recently passed away! Beep and Dora consoled eachother over their loss.


When Dora got home, Bop was extremely angry and dissapointed in her daughter for breaking the rules and leaving the house when she was supposed to be grounded!


Then Dora explained how she just had to leave the house as she was finding it hard to deal with the grief over her fathers death. When Bop heard this, both Dora and Bop broke out into tears over Bernard's death.


Despite Bop understanding Dora's reasons for leaving the house, the rules had to be upheald and Dora remained grounded. She was even grounded from going to Prom! Dora just had to go to prom so she snuck out of the house and joined her brother Troy in the limo and headed to Prom.


Neither Dora or Troy took a date to Prom, and they could not help but cause mischief at the dance as they seemed to be picking fights with others all evening. Despite this, they had lots of fun and it was a night they would never forget.
