It started a week after scorpia, the bills , far, far too many bills. at first they came in the mail. Then after a month of ignoreing them, trying to be a normal teenager. Trying to go to school, they came. It was about the house, if the bills weren't payed they would repossess it. If that happened we wouldn't have anywhere to go, and not only was the house in danger but other officials had shut of the water and electricity, in midwinter. When jack commented on what was happening I came up with excuses.
" Oh,that. The water main company called, there was damage in one of the pipes. They had to shut the water off to repair them."
or
" The fuse box must be broken. I'll call a repairman in the morning. It might take a few weeks for them to get around to it though."
Then I tried to get a part-time job. I was blocked. Only a day after trying to get a job I was called to The Bank.
