A Break from Mystery Womans Home

The three of us leave the house for Ruby Tuesday’s. With one thing collectively in our minds. What are we doing in that womans house?! We honestly dont really feel like we belong there. “Hey Eric” Yo? “Do you ever remember hearing me talk about an Aunt Jane?” I ask. “Welll uhhh.. no I don’t think I do. ” He responded.

Kenny, focusing on the road, has remained silent during this conversation. He finally speaks up. ” I kinda remember Aunt Clara talking about her.. But it was nothing big, maybe a dinner at her place or something mundane” he confessed.

Why would she give us money Though. I wonder out loud. “Come on Jen, think about it.. We are the two youngest cousins on her side of the family. She knew the others had money.. so what was the point? She figures she would be helping us out.. ya know?” Kenny sugested.

“That is an excellent theory” I agree. “Hey lets find out whats up with that key, while were out”. Suggests Eric.

Good thing you said something, cause I have it right here. I declare.
