LUNA RUSHED TO her house, two bags in hand rustling and hitting her knee as she speed walked in a hurry.

she ran to the old Yamada residency— handed down to a new family. (who doesn't check their mailbox.)

she glanced at the dusty mailbox, looking around before she lightly kneeled down to open it.

she saw loads of newspapers.
she sighed as she dug down.

the sound of crumbled old paper rustling as she dug to the very bottom.

she saw the exact envelope she wrapped the note in

exactly five years ago.

she slid it into her grip.

To; Bruce Yamada
From; Lulu.

it was ripped open

Luna squinted.

she looked to see the note gone.

"What's that sticking outta your pocket?"

"He still hasn't gotten it?"

"that's the thing." She picked up the envelope and opened it, showing its empty.

".. huh?" Vance walked up and grabbed it, looking inside for himself.

"but it's whatever. it's late. i gotta go to bed." Luna smiled.

"promise you'll organize the groceries before going to bed?"

Vance nodded.

"Bye." Luna walked to her room and shut the door.
