LuLu stepped out on the front porch as soon as she saw the mailman walking up the steps with his heavy bag of mail. She plastered a big robotically perky smile on her face and greeted him with," Hello , I am so pleased to make your acquaintance ! I just wanted to make sure you know that all our mail must be placed neatly and most organized in the box on the wall here. My husband is very anal about order. And I do hope we won't get the wrong mail. Our name is Jonah and Lulu Salmon. Salmon is spelled S I M M S. "
The mail man looked at her in disbelief and amusement. " That's Simms not Salmon. Have you been watching that old BBC comedy? That woman was about as annoying as you. Here is your mail, Mrs. Tuna. "
He handed her a stack of bills and advertising fliers before turning to leave with a laugh.
LuLu stamped her feet. " I'll be making a complaint on you! With the postmaster general ! I'll have your job. "
Then she turned to look at the Norland - Lane house. " But not before I get that trust money," she muttered under her breath. " One way or another. " She patted her bulging belly lightly. " Right, my sweet darling pooh bear ? "
