I should've let Sebastian and Jasmine freeze outside. Letting them into our group is a big mistake. Even Helga, who is not in her right mind, pulls more duty than them. While they are resting, I have a talk with everyone about our new guests. “As soon as the snow melts, we're dropping them off at the safe zone," I say.

"Good. He asked me to get him some clean sheets. After I gave him some, he asked if I'd make the bed for him," Star says.

Joey furrows his brows, and his face turns pink. "You didn't, did you?"

"No. I said this isn't a five-star hotel. Everyone has to pitch in. He harrumphed. I didn't know people actually did that." Star crosses her arms over her chest. "Oh, and I asked Jasmine what her last name was, and she said, ‘Honeysuckle, haven't you seen me on instaphoto?’ I told her I was too busy for nonsense and didn't waste my time on social media. I'm not catering to those two." Star plops her butt down on the couch. Wow, I've never seen her act this way before. Jasmine must have really pissed her off.

"I, for one, think she's hot," Vinny says.

"You would," Daria retorts.

"Okay, everyone. Let's just simmer down. They're our guests for the next few days, and I think we can all get along. Sebastian just lost his mother today," Dean says.

I think back to the way he was acting. Was it all a show so he wouldn't have to deal with his feelings? Possibly. "I'll give them another chance, but only one," I say.

It's starting to snow again. I'm relieved because it's covering our tracks. After Dean and my watch, we go downstairs and play cards with Star, Joey. Mrs. Garcia, Ben, and Helga. We decide on Go Fish.

Mrs. Garcia makes hot chocolate, and we sit in front of the fireplace. The living room is toasty and the warmest room in the house. Four inches of snow blanket the ground. We always get one last snow before spring. Sometimes we even get snow in May. I hope this isn't one of those years.

"What do you think those gun store guys are doing?" Ben asks.

"They're probably trying to keep warm," Mrs. Garcia says as she puts her arm around him. "Does anyone want any chili? I have some leftover."

Mrs. Garcia made a big pot for dinner, filled with three different beans, ground beef, and spices. She also served tamales and macaroni and cheese. Everyone, including Sebastian and Jasmine, ate two or more bowls.

"I'm stuffed. Your chili hit the spot," Dean says as he rubs his stomach. He had four helpings. Even though he's thin, the man can put away the food. If I ate the way he does, I'd weigh three hundred pounds.

"Do you have any fives?" I ask Star.

She looks through her cards. "Nope. Go fish."

I pick up a two and shake my head.

A crackling noise comes over the radio. "We have movement. Three cars are heading this way. Nope, make that five cars, I can see the gabbie hood ornaments," Vinny says.
