The Passages Of Mystery Woman's Journal

Kenny walks upstairs and locates the bedroom. It is down the long hall on the left from the steps. He gets comfortable,and begins to read the journal he found. It is written in the most elegant handwriting he has ever seen.

The pages have yellowed with time. But the ink is well preserved. The entries he reads date back to the 30s and 40s. Most of it reads like a diary, it talks about her day to day activities, and her dreams. While he reads this journal, he learns several things about his family.

Kenny also learns that his family immigrated from Italy. And that his grandfather was a banker. They moved here during the second world war.

In the next set of entries, he learns that his aunt came into some money and that her family didn’t know. She kept it in her lock box at the bank. She wanted to build a monitary legacy.

It appears that she was a very mysterious woman. Very secretive and very proud. She loved her family and her heritage.
