Balloon was kicked out of the hotel due to unexpected complaints about him.
Due to this, Balloon was homeless, cold, and alone.
Yet there was a place that he went to for safety, Meeple.
In the pouring rain, he took a hot air balloon and arrived at Meeple with nothing but anxiety on his shoulders.
Cobs, however, wasn't happy with this idea, but due to pity, he allowed Balloon to stay under his roof if Balloon worked for him.

She's just started seventh grade, she likes hanging out with her new best friend Balloon (even if her dad's boyfriend doesn't like him all that much), and she likes to go to the arcade to see Fan, a high schooler who's always been like a second older brother to her. But after sneaking out to the local park after dark one night to see Balloon, the two of them plus Fan witness something that leads them to discover that nothing in their hometown may not be what it seems. And as their newly formed secret club starts to unravel the secrets of the town, Suitcase finds that many of her thoughts can't be eternally encased betwixt the pages of her journal.
