SysDi 49: Return to Sender

Stupid idea. 

This is a terribly stupid idea.

Iva had reminded Evan the night before that anything sneaky in the eyes of their current law is going to be both risky and stupid.

Was Evan deterred? The night they were talking about it, not really.

In the morning, kind of absolutely.

Still, Evan had already said it. And because of his own morals of keeping his word every time, he wakes up on the morning after a long night's rest. It's how mornings usually go, except...

Well, he is now preparing to go do some sneaking.

He finished his routines first, something he wasn't able to do because he had been gone for three days without intending to.

The fields were empty, so he can skip it. The berries can be picked and made into a jam. It's the last batch he can harvest. All the jam he will be making will be kept in their storage for their own use from now on. His mom isn't around to sell them anyway.
