A few hours later, Sally came back downstairs, seeing Jessica sitting on the couch watching the TV. An animated film was on TV, Sally remembered when they saw it in the cinema.

"You are a toy car!" the cowboy wagon shouted to the green and white colored car before him. The car scoffed, saying "you are a sad, strange little wagon, and you have my pity. Farewell!"

As the car drove away, the wagon shouted back "oh yeah? Well, good riddance, you looney!" before driving off.

"You still watch this kids' stuff?" Sally scoffed as she saw her sister watching. Jessica said "what are you talking about? This is more mature than you think it is, Sal."

"Cartoons are for kids, Jess. You just gotta grow up." Sally said as she turned on the gasoline coffee machine. "Anybody call for me?"

"Oh yeah. Your pal Dean from Laker's Attorneys called. He said you could come and collect your payment from the Simpson-Porsche Case any time this week."

"Cool. Did he say how much I got?"

"Yeah. 36,000." Jessica said. Sally drank the beverage she had made, saying "great. If Dad gives me the extra 10, I can get the Sunseeker."

"How many can you get on one of those things, anyway?" Jessica asked. "About 6. So that's me, you, Mom, Dad and two others."

"Well, my friends don't like water, so you can handle that." Jessica said as she continued watching the film. Sally scoffed as she rolled up next to her sister, seeing the screen.

"You know, they're never gonna make another one of these." Sally said. "It's just a one-hit wonder."

"You're talking nonsense. They'll make something just as great, sis. You'll see."

Sally chuckled as they continued watching, saying "okay. I gotta admit, it has some charm. Personally, I thought The Lining King was better."

"Ah, that's just overrated." Jessica said. After a while of watching, Sally looked at the answering machine, which hadn't gotten any messages. She sighed, saying "God... two weeks without Mom and Dad and I'm bored after two hours."

"Trust me, sis. It'll pass quick." Jessica said. Suddenly KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Who's that? You invite someone?" Jessica said as she turned to the door. Sally said "no. Wait... it's Monday, right? It's probably just a mail call. You keep watching the kid's flick Jess, I'll get it."

Sally went to the door, opening it as she said "can I help you, handsome?"

The silver van wore dark shades over his eyes with a black mustache grill. On his bumper was a large CIA logo, with the words SPECIAL RESEARCH TESTING on the bottom.

"Would I be addressing Miss Sally Carrrera or Miss Jessica Carrera?" the van said. Sally said "uh... it's Sally. Who are you?"

"I'm Agent Lexus. I work as a liaison between the CIA and the SPT where your father works."

"Oh, my parents left two hours ago. Did you wanna talk to my dad?"

"Unfortunately, no. I have some, not-so-great news." Agent Lexus said as Jessica came to the door with Sally.

One week later...

Sally sat at the back of the row as Jessica nervously read out her eulogy. Sally looked to the coffins where her parents' bodies lay, looking away in shame as she drove from the site.

Jessica drove into the house, lowering her umbrella as she heard noises upstairs. "Sally?"

She drove upstairs, seeing Sally loading her belongings into a suitcase.

"Sally... what are you doing?" Jessica asked as she saw the suitcase. Sally groaned, saying "I'm leaving, Jess. Dean's found me a townhouse in the city. I've asked his cousin to talk to you about putting the house on the market."

"The market? But why are you leaving?" Jessica asked. She then said "look, if this is about Mom and Dad, then you shouldn't do this."

"Why not?" Sally said. "There's nothing left for me here now, Jess. Mom and Dad are dead. I want a little money to get my own life so we're selling the house. I suggest you do the same."

"Sally. Mom and Dad wouldn't want th..."

"UGH! Don't you get it?!" Sally suddenly snapped, tears rolling down her face as she slammed her tyre against the wall. Jessica tensed as the dry wall shattered, before turning to Sally as she continued.

"God!... everybody always says oh, but if you remember them, they'll always be here, but they're not, Jessica! Okay? They're dead! They're not coming back! All that spiritual afterlife nonsense is just ice cream for bedwetters like you! If you're gonna waste your time believing that, I'm not gonna let you waste mine too!"

"Sally, come on... don't do this." Jessica begged as Sally continued loading the cases. She shoved past her sister, saying "goodbye, Jessica. Tell Dean's cousin to fix that hole in the wall."

"Sally!" Jessica shouted as Sally drove down the stairs to the door. "Mom and Dad wouldn't want this!"

Sally didn't respond, instead slamming the door behind her as she left.

"Sally... please..." Jessica said as she went to the door. "You're all I have left..."
