The next day, the same man approached one of the servants, Kit. “Excuse me, ma’am” he said, making her jump. She was just arrived at the house and he popped out from nowhere, near the garage.

            “Oh God! You scared me!”

            “Sorry, ma’am, do you live here?”

            “I work here” the woman explained, “What do you want?”

            “I just need some information about the occupants”

            “You’re not from the police, are you?”

The man waited a bit, then replied “Yes, ma’am”

            “I knew this was gonna happen” the woman sighed.

            “What do you mean?”

            “All those lies. About the woman and the little girl being her wife and child”

            “Tell me about your employer” the man asked.

            “Miss Porter? She’s a business woman. She owns a lot of mall chain stores”

            “Mall chain stores, uh?” the man smirked.

            Later that afternoon, the family decided to spend some time out with Peggy; Alice was with them too. They headed to Central Park, where an ice rink had been set just for the Christmas holidays and Angelica was beyond excited to go there. Everything screamed ‘Christmas’. The tree were covered with snow and there were lights and garlands everywhere. You could also see a bunch of snowmen and Santa’s walking around the park, wishing everybody ‘happy holidays’. The kid was playing with a mechanical reindeer when Alice approached her

“Oh, look, I bet that’s dander” said Alice.

“It’s Donder!” the kid corrected her.

            “Dander” Alice said again, trying to win the fight with the girl.

            “It’s Donder! Dander means anger. That’s what I learnt at school”

Alice snorted, “Yeah, like you know better than me”

            “I’m right!”

            “No, you’re not”

            “Yes”

            “No”

            “Yes times infinity!” Angelica blurted out.

            “No times double infinity”

            “Infinity is forever, you can’t count double forever” she said with a serious expression. The kid had a point. In fact, Alice didn’t know how to reply. She just stood there, with her mouth open. The kid cracked a smile and stepped away as Bette approached Alice, “She’s right, you know? It’s Donder”         

            “Mph! That kid is evil” Alice said.
