I immediately quieted down. I felt guilty. She couldn't possibly be friends with me, and there was no way I could have made her tears any better. Besides, the only time she could continue to talk to me required stayed here for even longer after dark. Staying for any amount of time after dark at Freddy Fazbear's pizza was dangerous, and I couldn't possibly make her have to go through what the night guards here had to go through...

“Rummy”, she would yell, all of us laughed until our insides hurt. My mom looked at me with shock. “How can a she beat us at Rummy?”, mom would say over the sound of laughter. I always looked forward to the nights spent at Grannys. She was a firecracker that loved cards. Oh, if you went to Wendover without her you were in for an ear full.
