Chapter 3

I knocked on the door to Regina's office. I waited for a response. Eventually I heard a "Come in" from the other side of the door. I nervously opened up the doors, and then strode into the office. "Good afternoon, Mayor Mills." I said to Regina, who was sitting at her desk. I took a look around the office and saw that the whole room was covered in black and white; the curtains, the chairs, the desk.

"Doctor Hopper." She greeted me, with a nod of her head. "What can I do for you today?"

"Um… Actually I-I have the money to pay you back… For Pongo's vet bills." I stuttered, gently placing the envelope down on her desk.

"Already?" She asked, looking genuinely surprised. Her eyes glanced down at the envelope and then shifted back up to me. "That was awfully quick. I didn't think there were many people in Storybrooke in need of psychiatric help. How did you get the money so quickly, Archie?"

"Well…" I said, my eyes on the floor. Should I tell her about how I found the necklace or not? I quickly debated this idea in my head deciding on the latter of the two. "Well, I-I found an old necklace, up in my attic… A-A family heirloom, perhaps." I lied, still not taking my eyes off of the floor. I feel guilty already! I shouldn't lie! My conscience will be bugging me about this for months!

"Well…" she said. I removed my eyes from the floor, and brought them up to look at her. "That's very fortunate for you." She looked at me, her face showing a bit of suspicion. "Is that all, Doctor Hopper?"

"Uh… Y-Yes. I think so… I'll just be going now." I stuttered, as I turned to leave. As I reached the door, I turned back. "Good afternoon, Mayor Mills."

"Good afternoon, Archie."
