“But Simon, why are you—?” Rosie said and mimicked him, pushing her arms forward in the air and grunting.

“I need money to buy the tickets,” he answered. “They’re twenty-five dollars apiece. I need to get fifty dollars.”

“In your mom’s car?” I asked.

“Sometimes you can find money in here,” Simon explained. He squeezed his eyes shut and searched with his fingers. “Coins fall out of people’s pockets and go down into the seats.”

“Simon,” Rosie said. “To find fifty dollars in coins, you’d have to—”

Simon interrupted Rosie.

“Aha!” he yelled and yanked his hands out. He held up a quarter for Rosie and me to see. “Jackpot!”

“Only forty-nine dollars and seventy-five cents to go,” Rosie said.

“Not that much,” Simon replied as he climbed awkwardly out of the car. He pulled some more coins from his pocket. “I found some in the front seat too. And in the cushions of the living room couch! And in my jeans on Friday.”
