That day flew by quickly. Chrissie arrived at the apartment at 5:30 as usual.
"Hi, Janet," Chrissie said.
"Hi, Chrissie," Janet said, who was watching the evening news.
"I talked to Jack today. Do you want to hear this or not?" Chrissie asked.
"What's the news?" Janet asked.
The weekend finally arrived. Jack drove his car to the apartment where he, Chrissie and Janet lived. He parked in the usual parking spot he parked when he picked up Chrissie for their dates. He picked up a few of his things from the backseat. Back in the Roper apartment, Helen Roper was watching from the apartment window.
So Stanley stayed at the window as Helen went to the kitchen to start that day's lunch. Jack rang the doorbell. Janet came out of the apartment.
"Hi, Jack. Come in. Do you need help with those suitcases?" Chrissie asked.
"I think I've got it but if you want to, you can help. I don't have many suitcases in the car. I'll pick up more suitcases later," Jack said.
"All right," Chrissie said as Jack walked into his new apartment with his two suitcases.
"If you'll excuse me, I have more stuff to get from the car," Jack said.
"Sorry. I thought you had all your things," Chrissie said.
"Nope. There's more. I'm bringing some more of it this afternoon and tomorrow as well," Jack said.
"Okay. You've been busy with your packing, I see," Chrissie said.
"I know I have been," Jack said.
"There he goes again, Helen. I wonder how long he'll be doing this going back and forth from the apartment parking lot," Stanley said.
"You're suspicious, aren't you, Stanley, darling?" Helen asked her husband.
"Come in, Mrs. Roper," Chrissie said to Helen.
Helen walked into the apartment.
"Mind if we talk, Chrissie?" Helen asked.
"Sure. What about?" Chrissie asked.
"That guy that's in your apartment. Stanley is getting suspicious about him. He looks familiar to me but we want to know who he is," Helen said.
"That was Jack. He doesn't have a place to live right now and he tried living with a different roommate recently but it didn't work out so I told him he could live here with Janet and myself," Chrissie said.
Chrissie knew she was speaking the truth to Helen Roper. She didn't know how Stanley would take it.
