penig:Gabby’s nephew Ash invited Angel to his birthday party, and she, Geoff, and Silver went out with Gabby and Jules. Geoff said there was this guy there kept looking at Gabby. He didn’t much like it. I said Gabby was worth looking at and it wasn’t our business unless she objected. If she objected, of course, it was our job to wipe the floor with him. Gabby couldn’t throw a punch to save her life.Silver tried to go visit Leona, but she didn’t answer the door even when he called out who it was, though he was sure he heard somebody moving inside. Probably the dog. He said the place was a mess, looked abandoned except for the crops, which were all weeded and healthy as far as he could tell.He said, he was about ready to pick the lock, picturing her lying dead in there with the dog eating her. But Gabby’d spoken to her on the phone the night before, so he didn’t.Sacha Roth told him the kids had started spreading stories, how she’d contracted a deadly disease from experimental fertilizer and it was doing stuff to her bones and deforming her, making her crazy so she couldn’t come out.Of course we all knew that was crap, but I was worried about her. I decided, once we got moved, I was going to call her up and arrange to see her and not take no for an answer. If she wouldn’t see me, she should name somebody to meet up with, or a date and time to show herself to the Greenmans, or -something. -- source link
