Chapter 64: The Girls Take Over

“Girls, you’ve never done this before,” Julietta protested as she walked next to her two friends on their way to Mr. Heyer’s house.

“Yes, but remember we did pray before we came and we prayed again now while you were talking to that guy,” Sheila said pertly.

“Is that why you’re so pumped up with courage now?” Julietta asked. “Of course,” Sheila remarked. They had reached the gate to the house by now.

“So, the gardener just left it open,” Vernicia commented.

“Do you think that he would have time to think about closing a gate when all hell was let loose around him in the form of lightning?” Sheila asked incredulously.

“Are we simply going up to the door?” Julietta asked, hugging herself nervously. It sounded so long ago that she had desperately walked up to Mr. Heyer’s house in search of a lift home.
