Part 1
I have been observing Elary and her house for a few weeks now. Her parents were in the USA for a couple of months and she was on her own, and because it’s Friday, no one will expect her to be at school tomorrow. Today is when I will teach her!
Her house was big – and her neighbours also had big houses. However most of them were at work, I assume, to be able to afford them – just like Elary’s parents. To be honest all houses looked more like small palaces than houses. The gardens were decorated with garden gnomes, flamingos, potted plants, hedges, stepping stones, planting circles, benches, and the pavements were made of modak sandstone.
At 5pm she returned home with some shopping. She put it down and walked around the garden, probably looking for something, then took her bags and went inside. After making sure no one was around I also made my way to the door. I used the key I had stolen from her before and entered her home. I was quiet. I listened.
