Matt: So?? Who is this lucky man to have my beautiful sister as a wife?
Still Lucy and Mary just stood there in complete silence.
Mary: Umm, err, he is a little older than me.
Lucy: oh yeah, just a little. She mumbled under her breath.
Mary elbowed her in the ribs.
Matt: That's no big deal. How much older? 2, 3 years older?
Mary: He is 75 years old.
Matt: WHAT!?!? He is 75 years old!?!?
Lucy: I am getting out of here!
Mary: There is something else you might want to know.
Matt: Wait, there's more??
Mary: He is blind and has cancer.
Matt: Why would you do something like that?
Mary: You swear to keep a secret?
Matt just stood there without speaking. He was thinking of what his answer should be.
Matt: Ok, but if it is that serious I have top tell mom and dad.
Mary: Its all part of my plan.
Matt: Uh oh, not one of your crazy plans!
Mary: I have been really broke lately, so then something hit me. I am going to marry a really old guy who is nearly dead, and when he dies, inherit his money!!!
Matt: BAD IDEA MARY!
Mary: How could that brilliant idea go bad?
Matt: You know how mean and hurtful that is. And have you ever heard of 'what comes around goes around'?
Mary: Matt, you actually believe that superstitious non-sense? You know that is all a bunch of shit.
Matt: Well, all I am going to say is don't tell mom and dad about your plan.
Then Matt walked out of the room and disappeared down the stairs.
That night Mary thought long and hard about what Matt had said to her. But when she finally fell asleep, she had the worst nightmare ever. She dreamed that she was doing her job as a flight attendant when her plane crashed over the Atlantic ocean and she was the only one who died. She died because everyone else was chanting on the lifeboats at her, "What comes around goes around!", "What comes around goes around Mary Camden!".
She woke up sweating to her mom nudging her arm around trying to wake her up from her nightmare.
Annie: Hunny, are you okay? You have been screaming and shouting, " I am sorry!" and, "I wont ever do something this bad again!".
Mary: Of course there is nothing wrong. Why would you think something is wrong?
Annie: Mary, I am a mother. I always know when something is wrong with one of my own baby's.
Annie: Is there anything you want to talk about?
Mary just laid there for a while before she said something.
Mary: Mom, there is something I need to tell you about my marriage.
Still Lucy and Mary just stood there in complete silence.
