"Who do you think is sending them?" Roger wondered with his arms around Mimi in a protective manner.
"Maybe it's Maureen" Mimi said. Collins shook his head, "I doubt it, how can she can she afford to send us money?"
This time it was Angel's turn to speak, "Maybe she got a job"
"A job that pays this much and is still able to support herself? I doubt it"
"I wish we knew how she was" added the now slightly bearded Jewish man.
A silent agreement passed over them. "I wish you'd shave" Mimi said and the mood lightened considerably.
"So 'Eden' ready to go?" a small blonde busty woman said.
"Yeah sure" 'Eden' replied distractedly. "Where's our next stop?"
"New York" she informed, knowing the brunette wasn't listening to her.
"Oh..." and then, sudden realization. Eyes grew wide.
"Oh...shit"
A/N: I'm having a writer's block in my other stories and this came to me, don't worry I haven't forgotten about the others….yet. So enjoy my dear fellow Rentheads. And you know what I can't decide which Maureen I prefer, the one portrayed by Idina or Eden, hmmm it's tricky.
