Good work

It had been a year since Cyndie started her company with Elliot, her cousin.
The business had been good, there's always a need for fancy furnitures, and they had a nice inventory.
But, you know, it's not always easy working with family, specialy when you know some of their secrets.

For exemple, Elliot was a pyromaniac. Most of the time, Cyndie kept him at home to do the paper work, but sometimes, when the workload was too much to handle, she couldn't help but call him for help at the factory.

About four months ago, she stopped him in the nick of time from starting a fire in a king size bed. And, well, we always try to help family member the best we can, so to release Elliot fire needs, she took him to the country side and let him burn an old barn she had bought.

She knew she should have made the connection when Elliot started going on the road to find new clients. He always came back to work the next day very happy and relaxed...

On a saturday morning, the newspaper headline made her shiver inside:
¨A primary school in the suburbs was prey to the flammes, ten dead¨

Of course, she was worried, and upset, but Elliot did own half her company...

She skipped the news and read the comics instead.
