Kendra's POV:
I heard a noise outside my house, so I had to go back to see what made the noise.
I stood up, brushed the dust off my clothes, and grabbed the backpack.
I walked home and saw a package on the porch.
I had not gotten mail in a long time.
The bright red eviction notice on the door did not help my mood either.
I reached down and opened the package.
Inside was a wad of cash, a pillow, and a note.
Dear Kendra,
I know you have not heard from me in years.
It was because I was in the witness protection program. I was released from it after the police caught the bad guy, and I testified at the trial.
I sent you some money cause I had a feeling you might need it.
Sincerely,
your big sister,
I was shocked when I read the note. My sister had sent the package. Wow, talk about a twist in my life. It appeared just when I needed it most.
I went to the office on my bike and handed over most of the bills.
It was enough to pay off my debt to the bank. Now, I owned the place.
What was I to do about the body in the strange place? The place where I had trespassed twice already. How could I explain it without being arrested for ignoring the"Keep out" sign?
I would leave that for another day. I unlocked the house and stored my backpack inside.
Oops, what about my bike? I ran to the place again and pushed my bike back to my house. I stored it inside the garage.
I tried to forget what happened over the last few days as I locked the door and went to take a shower.
Once done, I put on a fresh outfit. The other clothes I put in the washing machine.
Now, for a nap. Dog gone it, I can not sleep.
the story continues in Chapter 9
til then,
bye-bye, little owlets!
Summer out!
