Thea POV

The doorbell rings, and I rush to it. Roy is out for the day. I am all alone and bored. I could use some company. I hope it is the nice neighbor lady Jan. I enjoy her company when Roy is out all day.

I swing the door open. "Hello," I say to a well-dressed man. I do not know him. He hands me an envelope. "Thank you," I say.

He turns and walks away. That was extremely odd, to say the least. I open the envelope as I sit down on the couch. There is another envelope inside the first one. Damn, someone is a little theatrical. I open the second envelope and finally pull out the car. It is a wedding invitation to Henry and Debbie's wedding. I throw the invitation down on the coffee table. No way in hell will I be going to that. Fuck both of them.

I take a deep breath of boredom and look around at the house. I need to get out of here. Roy does not like for me to go out alone, but I cannot take any more of this house.
