章 14: Chapter 14

“Get this, the mom, whatever her name is, apparently died four days ago. The oldest kid, Justin, it looks like he’s back and trying to take care of the little ones.”

She leaned down to peer into the camera. “Wait, doesn’t…hold on a minute.” Bernie gestured with her hand and vanished from the view.

Soon enough, Del could hear her talking to someone. He concentrated on trying to figure out who she was with, but then he heard steps coming closer. Suddenly the toaster popped and he jolted.

“Holy shit!” Del hissed, holding his hand over his heart.

“Language, Delbert,” his mother said, picking up the tablet and peering into it. “What’s this about the O’Dwyers?”

Great, thanks Bernie, for telling Mom was at your place.Del groaned internally.

“The woman died and the oldest came back to take care of the little ones, I guess?” he recapped, and Mom frowned thoughtfully.
