The Uninvited Page #4

Where'd you get it?

Oh, there.

Someone gave them to me ages ago.

A boyfriend?

An old patient, actually.

Really? Sounds like a nice job.

I wiped old people's asses

for a living, Anna.

And let me assure you, they were

not all beautiful like your mom.

No, I mostly had to do things

that decrepit old ladies

with lots of money were either too

ashamed or weak to do for themselves.

Wanna know how I got through it?

It's terrible,

but no matter how condescending

they were,

how badly they treated me,

how badly they smelled,

I always told myself,

"They'll be dead very, very soon. "

You know, Anna, we all have things

in our past that we're ashamed of.

I think sometimes

it's best to just let it go.

Anna?

Anna, are you all right?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

We have some shopping to do, right?

Beautiful marbling.

How long has it been aged?

- We sell everything fresh.

- Never mind.

- I'm gonna go grab the milk.

- Great, thanks.

- Matt.

- Anna. Hey.

What are you doing here?

Listen, I think... I think I know what

you were trying to tell me yesterday.

The fire wasn't an accident, was it?

- What did you see?

- Matt?

Those berries aren't getting any fresher.

Yeah, yeah. Okay, I'm coming.

- Will you help us, please?

- Yeah, okay. Just not here.

Okay, then can we meet tonight?

Matt!

- Yeah. 11:
00. At the rock.

- Okay.

- Couldn't find the milk?

- Yeah.

- We should go.

- Okay.

Oh, and, Matt, you won't need to

make deliveries to the house anymore.

That's gonna be my job from now on.

- Have fun?

- Oh, yeah.

Been telling each other

all our secrets, right, Anna?

Yeah. Thanks for lunch.

- Was everything okay?

- I lost her for a little bit.

I mean, I just hope

this wasn't all too soon.

Alex?

Jesus, you scared me.

I thought you were her.

- Did you talk to Matt?

- Yeah, we're meeting him tonight.

Cool. Look at this.

God, when are they bringing

in the stripper pole?

I know, she's like a crack whore

without the dignity.

P.S., look at this.

Come on. Look what I found.

- Meet Mr. Chubby.

- Oh, that's disgusting.

No, I'm not touching that.

Okay, that's enough

to tranquilize a horse.

Or you and me.

- Come on, let's go.

- Wait.

Party's over, Rach.

Come on, let's go. We're gonna be late.

Matt?

This doesn't feel right.

What if something's happened?

It's okay, Anna.

We'll find him tomorrow.

Yeah.

I'm gonna go to bed.

No, please stay with me till I fall asleep.

If I had 10 bucks

for every time I heard that.

Thank you.

No funny stuff.

Anna, hey. Hey, don't be afraid.

I just didn't want to

wake your parents up.

Matt. Where were you?

We waited for you at the rock,

just like you said.
