I stand, not wanting to spend another second in a chair, and wait for Bone and Austin. Moments later, I can hear loud booming voices and blow out an irritated breath when I see Bone walk up. He looks like shit, skinnier than normal and more haggard. With everything going on and him hitting the bar a lot more lately, I haven't really noticed his decline on fatigue and appearance. Bone reaches me and plops down on the end chair. I can hear him mumble to himself but we both remain quiet as we await Austin. After a few moments I hear him mumble himself and choose to ignore it, until I hear Abby's name. "What did you say?"

Janet stood by the door as though not allowed to enter and gestured for us to go inside. It was dark inside, and there seemed to be no one.

Turning around, I saw she was running towards us and I could see the excitement in her eyes when she came to stand next to us. She immediately looked at the front of the large three story house and her eyes widened. The house had been built out of brick and fortified steel. I wanted it to last and be sturdy. Going inside we entered into a small foyer, it was smaller than the one at the old house but a lot nicer.
