Somber Business

Jen, Kenny and Eric are sitting at the kitchen table playing cards. They are seated with snacks and drinks as well. Having themselves a good time. For once having an escape from all that somber business.

When suddenly there was a knock at the door, seconds later the doorbell chimes. Jen puts her cards down and walks towards the door. When she reaches the door she consults the peephole. A tall dark haired man with bright blue eyes.
He appears to be stylishly dressed. Jen opened the door. “Hi, I’am Jen, Eric’s best friend” She said as she offered her hand. Chris let himself inside. “Chris Whibley” he said as he accepted her hand. “So Eric told me you found some money, and learned a family secret huh?” He asked
“Yeah.. lets go to the kitchen so we can meet Kenny, my cousin.” Jen said as she invited him to join them.

Moments later the two of them join Eric and Kenny still seated at the table. “Hey, its the bossman”.. Eric said as he greeted Chris. “Would you like to play a hand?” Kenny asked.
