21:45- Kid starts to cry again, i go into him and comfort him untill 23:00
23:00-02:00- all is well, hes asleep in bed
02:30- Phone call comes through, parents of kid, their crying, they tell me to wake up the kid, he needs to get ready to go to the hospital, his 13 year old sister died at 02:10 in the morning, may she R.I.P, they instruct me to tell the kid, why? Idk, but i have to do my duty.

02:50- Sit the kid on the couch, basically say " That was your parents on the phone, im afraid your sister is, uh, dead" Then he starts to cry, and i hug him (Im you call me a homo, stfu, his siter just fucking died) and tell him how great his sister is bla bla bla, and how she will be missed, and how shes had a great life and is now in a better place
03:00-03:30- Comforting kid
