SPUNKY LITTLE BLOND

*😋SPUNKY LITTLE BLOND😋*

Molly Hansson returned to her parents home in a small

community called Memory Lane just on the outskirts of

Manhattan. Her father, Nicolaus Hansson owns and runs

a small shop called Hansson's Clocks and Repairs. He is

considered to be a master at his craft, all his clocks are

handmade, each one unique. Their home is above the

shop, a modest two-bedroom apartment, consisting of a

small kitchen, fair size living room. It was small but cozy.

The community consisted of family run business, by

people of foreign nationalities from all over the world.

Germany, Sweden, Africa and various other places. It was

by no means a wealthy community. Just honest, hard-

working people trying to make a decent living and a better

life for themselves and their families.

Molly had just finished her fourth year at college, she

graduated top of her class in business and finance. Molly

had no idea how much her life was going to change over

the next few weeks. She stood in front of her father's

store. It was only mid-day and the shop was closed.

Frowning she looked around and seeing all the shops

were closed shivered, a cold chill raced through her body.

The shops never closed unless there was a death in the

community.

Fearing the worst she used her key to open the door and

dashed up the back steps that led upstairs to the

apartment. Her mother and father were seated at the

round kitchen table, holding hands and heads hung down,

neither one had heard her come in.

"Mom, dad what's wrong?" she cried out.

They both looked up, surprised to see her standing there.
