"Let's go grab some dinner!" Riley pointed toward a nearby luxury hotel. "Let's treat ourselves to a big meal." Drew's eyes widened in shock as he looked at him. "Dad, that place is expensive.

"And at midnight, when no one is around, we can sneak back and grab some jewelry from home. That should get us another twenty or thirty thousand," Melinda chimed in. Drew stopped walking, staring in disbelief at the silhouettes of his parents and grandmother.

A wave of sorrow washed over him.

"Oh, silly boy." Grandma came over and took his hand, speaking earnestly.
