Blue Bag- part four

Mandy waited until Buddy was in the shower and quickly went to the closet. She tore the bag from the large suit case and opened it. She looked at the deposit slip. Rossi's Car Care. Her heart dropped. It was someone she knew. She should give it back. The right thing to do would be to give it back. She had always done the right thing. It hadnt done much for her. She put it back in the closet and shut the door. She would sleep on it. Yes. Her mom had always told her to sleep on things. Dont be so impulsive. Think before you act. Her mom would know what to do but she could not tell her mom what she had done. She sat down in front of the t.v. Buddy flopped down next to her on the couch. He put his wet head on her lap. She smiled down at him and ran her fingers through his wet hair. What are your plans for tomorrow? he asked her as he eyed the t.v.. I do have an interview at 2. Coffee shop at the mall. Mandy told him without any enthusiasm. He looked up at her. Honey, if you dont want to work there, then dont. We are making it. Its tight but we can get through this. Buddy told her. We will see. She answered. She knew then that she would not give the money back. She had found it. Finders keepers, losers weepers. She laughed out loud when she thought of this saying that they used to say when they were kids. Her brother would tell her that whenever she left anything of value within his sight. Whats so funny? Buddy asked her. Nothing. Just thinking. She turned her mind off and watched t.v until she could no longer keep her eyes open and they went to bed. She would sleep on it
