Lollie Parker

Lollie sat at her bay window, having it slightly cracked.

She was reading a book that her grandma gave her.

In the words of Nona, "If you ever miss me. Read this. Your grandfather gave it to me as a "Welcome to the world, Bailey." gift."

Fran has gone on a trip with her husband and hasn't been back in a month.

So to say Lollie missed her was an understatement. She probably read the book four times a day.

She knew the book wasn't by just any author, but by her grandpa.

Lollie heard her bay window open some more and looked behind her.

Maya and Riley came in a sat down.

"Are we best friends?" Maya asked.

"What did you do?" Lollie asked.

"Oh, I didn't think about saying that to you." Riley said.

Maya ignored Riley, "Are we best friends?"

"Sure. Why'd you ask?" Lollie questioned.

"Why are we best friends?" Maya asked.

Lollie shrugged her shoulders, "What's with the questions?"

"Would you give me your kidney?" Maya asked.

"I'd give you my left one." Riley replied.

"Would you?"

"Probably. If you really needed it."

"There is one final test you must pass." Maya said.

"I was being tested?" Lollie asked.

"Would you kidnap someone that really needed to be kidnapped, and handcuff her to the radiator and lock the door and not tell anybody?" Maya said very quickly.

Lollie ran her hands over her face and sighed.
﹏﹏﹏﹏

The three of them entered Maya's room.

Lollie sighed at the woman who was tied up in her room.

"Is that my bow?" Riley asked.

"Yup."

"You took my bow?"

"Yup."

"When did you take my bow?"

"Hey, Sherlock, is there anything else jumpin' out at you?" Lollie asked.
