Capítulo 53: Chapter 53

Mrs. Nelson, Dr. Tanner, and the triplets waited in the living room for the police to arrive. Ruby and Zoey sat huddled together on the couch, eyes on the driveway. Mrs. Nelson broke down into occasional bursts of weeping, as she had been doing since waking from her nap and discovering Mr. Nelson's returned wallet. Celeste tended to her with a limitless supply of tissues and cold cloths. Dr. Tanner - who had returned to the house minutes after he received Zoey's call - paced the floor while waiting for a patrol car.
