Beta Pierce that I made my public apology.” She sniped at me. “And what do mean you didn’t get my link?”
“I didn’t get it, and I was not the one to tell Beta Pierce anything in the first place.” I tell her. “So, no I will not be the one to tell him that you apologized. May I go have my lunch now or is there something else you wanted?”
“You’re lying you had to of gotten my link!”
KESKA: “I think you are confusing me with your friends Jessie I am not lying I did not get your link.” I say to her. “Keep this up and I am going to tell mom, and dad.” She spouts. “Go ahead, I didn’t get it.”
I say to her. Her eyes clouded over and the next thing I know James is linking me. “Now what is going on with the two of you?”
“Don’t ask me, I just want to go eat lunch and Jessie is griping about me ignoring her, I did not get her link.”
“Well try to link her and see what happens.”
“James, I don’t have time for all this nonsense I’m hungry, I’m going to get my lunch eat it and then get to class.”
“Jessie I’m hungry I’m going to get lunch excuse me.” I moved past her and went to my table to finish my lunch.
“What did Jessie want?” Mackie asked. “She said that I was ignoring her, and that she linked me, if she did, I did not get it. And now she is throwing a fit about it.”
“What if she did try to link you?”
“Still, I did not get it.”
“Do you think it might have something to do with what happened a month ago?”
“Well, if it does, then that’s on her as well and she threatened to tell mom and father, won’t that go over just great, give her enough rope, but of course I know that I will get blamed for that too.”
“Let’s go to class and forget about all of this until it becomes an issue.” She says.
KESKA: Last bell rings. “Yeah! Only 2 more weeks!” I say to Mackie as we head over to our bikes. “Hey Kes, do think we should try to get real jobs this summer?”
“Sure, what did you have in mind?” I asked her. “You know that human town about 2 and a half miles away? Maybe we can go there and see if there is anything available.” She says.
“Ok sure, but we will have to come up with a schedule that we can both work so we can go together.” I tell her. “We will need transportation, other than our bikes though.”
“I know, but if we pool our money, I might be able to get the short fall from
Nana, as long as I promise to pay her back, we should be able to get a decent used car.” She just nods her head. “We will have to get our driver’s license as well.” I say. “I will start a search for a vehicle after training tonight.”
I just nod my head.
MACKIE: After we finish our homework and do our training with Nana, I set up my laptop and start a search for used vehicles on the wolf web, and Kes is talking to Nana about helping us pay for it if needed. We both have continued to help the senior population of the pack and have earned more than I think she realizes. “Hey Kes, I think I found one. It’s a private owner and they are asking $8,000 for a 2022 Toyota; it says it has under 40,000 miles on it.”
“What’s wrong with it, that car should be more than that.”
“I will message the person and ask.” I sent a message to the person, and kept looking, not expecting to get a response right away. So, I was surprised when I got a message back. Thank you for your inquiry, the car belonged to my late wife, she passed away from cancer two months ago and I have no use for the car and keeping it hurts, due to the memories. There is nothing wrong with it, I just wish to have it gone.

Pack. “He says that it belonged to his dead wife and wants to get rid of it.”
“Wow, if it’s true we just hit the jackpot. Do we have enough to get though?” she asked.
MACKIE: I opened our bank app and looked at the balance, “we would need to barrow $1,500 from Nana to get the car.” I told her “And that will wipe us both out until we get our first paycheck from wherever we find a job.”
“Go ahead Mackie tell him that you will take the car.” Nana tells me. “I will buy it for Keska’s birthday gift.” We both just look at Nana.
“Nana that’s too much.” Keska says to her. “Nonsense, the twins’ got more than that, I will do this for you, besides owning a car is more expensive than you think, you have to have insurance on it, and with both of you being students that will be expensive, plus the upkeep, oil changes, maintenance work, preventive care, it all cost money. So, I will buy the car.” Both Keska and I jump up and hug her.
“Send the message that we will have cash for him, and we will be there to get the car the weekend after next. As next weekend will be graduation.” She tells me. I send the message to him and give him just enough information so when we get there, they know we are not rouges, or shady characters.
JESSIE: When I get home, I go to dad’s office and knock on the door and wait for him to answer. “Come” I hear him say.
So, I entered the office. “Can we talk dad?”
