Indeed, what is Jacob Henderson hiding, @kemmyb. We know nothing about him yet, so it may just be an innocent misunderstanding. I'm pleased you found my short story interesting and mysterious. You know how children's imagination can sometimes run amuck.
At some point in our childhood we compare how our friends' parents treat them and think the grass in greener on their shoes. I certainly have many fond memories of wishing I could live with another family until I was older and found out somme stuff, lolol.
Lester is an inquisitive youth, for sure. He thinks he is so smart. Let's if his detective skills prove him right, whatever plot he thinks he's discovered.
So kind of you to visit and leave your lovely compliment. I appreciate it and your support, as always.
Take care and have a good rest of your week.
