Chapter 14:

(Larry)

Once everyone started to come into the museum, Maco would cover her eye and look down. I'd hold her by the shoulders and steer her around because she wouldn't look up "you, night guard!" Someone yelled, it was Mr. McPhee walking towards me and Maco "hi, Mr. McPhee" Maco said wiggling her fingers "that mark still isn't gone?" Mr. McPhee said looking at her, Maco nodded her head "anyways, what's that? In the neanderthal exhibit?" Mr. McPhee said pointing, shoot! I forgot to clean that up. "Oh the Neanderthals, uh, I had a little accident, I was going to clean it up" I said looking at the mess "don't even bother, you're fired!" Mr. McPhee snapped and walked away "that's not fair Mr. McPhee wait!" Maco said chasing after him "Maco, come back" I said chasing after her. Maco followed Mr. McPhee into his office "Mr. McPhee don't beat up on Larry he was doing his job" Maco said putting a hand on her eye "how do you know?" Mr. McPhee said, Maco looked down then back up to Mr. McPhee "I was here with him, I needed to check if my keys worked since I'll be inheriting this place soon, I was with him all night. The accident happened around the morning please Mr. McPhee don't fire him, give him another chance" Maco pleaded. Mr. McPhee couldn't say no to his upcoming superior, he decided to give me another chance.

"I don't know how long I can save you from him Larry" Maco said walking down the museum stairs "thanks again Maco" I said turning towards her. Maco gave me a smile "I'm going to come by again tonight" Maco said continuing to walk down the stairs "maybe take Ahkmenrah out of his sarcophagus" I stared at her when she said this "why?" I asked "he's my friend, and he seems like he really wants to get out" Maco responded. Once we got off the stairs Maco looked at me "I'll see you in a few hours" she said walking home.

I got a call from my ex wife saying I should come over. It must've been about something, I hurried over her house and asked her what was wrong. She told me to ask Nicky, I walked into Nicky's room. He was reading a book, he didn't look up at me "hey, how's it going? I said "you got fired" he answered; how did he know about this? "What? No" I tried to lie " I went by your job, your boss was yelling at you" Nicky said looking away from his book "no I just had a misunderstanding"
"About what"
"I can't explain it, but I can show you"
"Show me what?"
"Come by the museum tonight".
