I hear the old window shutters rattle early in the morning. They enable me from sleeping so I get up and go to close them. But I suddenly see a new family across the street in the old abandoned house. That house is big. I remember me and my friend Oliva checking it out as kids. The place had so many rooms we could never count them. Some had big chandeliers others had gold embelishings and even the bathrooms were bigger then my whole house. But me Olivia got caught in there so we had to leave. After that they put boards on the doors and claimed if they even see one dust bunny removed or misplaced they would arrest the lot of us. So no one cares to go there. But this family looked like they belonged in that house. There was a man. He wasn't old but not very young either. He was wearing a top hat and a suit. He also had a mustache that must be in fashion. Then he had a women next to him. She is not old at all and looked a little young for him but it seemed he didn't mind. She wore a silk blue dress with a hat. And she wore those lacy gloves. There was also a girl with them approximately my age maybe older. She was too old to be the women's daughter but they look alike since they have similar facial features so they must have some sort of realation. She also wore a silk dress but it was a salmon pink and she had a smaller hat that had a more angular shape. She carried a cat. I heard that if you can wear those clothes and afford that kind of house you most likely could buy an Egyptian pure breed cat. I bet that was it was, some fancy Egyptian cat. There was also many other people. But they didn't have fancy clothes. They had clothes that were in worse shape then mine. And it seemed as the 3 rich people only lifted a finger. It also seemed they don't know anything about manual labor. They feel so familiar and I can't put my hands on it. I heard footsteps coming into my room. I turn and see my brother who seems amazed like I am.
"You can see those people right?"
I noded.
"Man, they must be filthy rich if I have ever seen it!" he stands next to me watching them. " I already heard mom say that she heard all the house wives spreading rumors. Some say that they killed a billionaire and got all that money. Others say that he must have got a really good job. Well you know what I say?" he turns to meet my face "everyone should stop fussing on how the Mcmillers family got that money and more on how we can get some too!"Wait I recognize that name!
"Did you say the Mcmillers?""Yep." he looks at them with a disgusted but interested face.
"like my old friend Molly Mcmiller?"
"Yep."
"Wait that means that-"
"Yep that's Joahana and Molly's dad."
"Wait I haven't seen her for years and how did this happen and why is Joana and Molly's dad making love?!?!"
"You don't remember?"
"No I was 5!"
"Well Joahana is Rilley and Carlson's kid, after Carlson died Rilley needed someone to help with the income so she married Daniel. They never loved each other but they gave birth to Molly and then after the income was no good Rilley divorced him. She also didn't want the responsibility of two kids. Daniel went back to his old town and now they move back richer then rich wanting to move into to that big house that has been abandoned for years. And apparently Johana and Daniel got married."
I stared at Henry and then at the Mcmiller's.
I couldn't believe my eyes. I hurried out of my room through the kitchen and out the back."Hey where are you going?" I hear Henry calling.
I go near the house as many more people then I expected were there Unloading big packages. I come closer to Molly from behind.
"Gosh Molly you have been gone so long haven't you ever thought of visiting?" I see her turn to face me.
"Oh Madeline!" she hugs me really hard and of course I hug her back.
"Molly!" I hear Daniel boam.
Molly stops hugging me and she reverts back to her position. Her smile fades. "Hello Madeline its an honor to see you again after all this time." she takes her dress and bows in a very ladylike manor.
