Corners-Part2

"It says something about some money lost from your family"

Money? What I have in my life is the exact opposite of money! I could really use that right now.

"If you're secretly famous and have a mansion somewhere, I get to live with you. No ifs, ands, or buts about it" Camille says sarcastically.

"I wish" I reply. "Plus, I would totally let you live with me"

"I know you would" she says. "I would be your manager".

"Yeah, totally" I agree.

I don't even know what that means. Am I really supposed to have that green paper stuff that they call money? It seems unlikely. Whatever it is, I have to find out what this means. Whatever glitch happened in this system that they call life needs to be fixed  because it has caused a lot of pain and stress for me.

"Can you manage to get the stone out of the wall?" I ask as Camille is tracing her finger around the corners of each carved letter.

"I'll try, but I'll need your help" Camille replies.

"Ok, on three. Ready, one, two, three!"

We pull as hard as we can but it doesn't budge. We're just standing there looking like two constipated seals.

"It won't move, it's to heavy!" I scream as we still pull as hard as ever.

"We'll probably have to go home and get a tool or something" she says as we give up on moving the rock.
___________________________
We come back with a pry bar.
"Hopefully this works"I say, trying to reassure myself. "I can't believe we are putting so much effort into something we just saw yesterday"

"Yeah well, we are." Camille replies in a sarcastic tone."come on, let's just get this rock out of here".

After, like an half an hour of work, we finally manage to pry the rock out of the pile of other stones that are there.

"What else does it say?" I ask now that we have a better view of the rock.

"It says that it's by 'anonymous'" Camille replies. "Don't know why someone would need to hide their name like that. I doubt that any normal person wouldn't have noticed it and invested an entire two hours into this thing"

"Yeah I know. We're not normal" I say.

Camille an I head home to investigate the rock further.
___________________________
"So, apparently their is some fortune missing from your family that we have missed out on for thirteen years" she says nonchalantly.

"Is that what the rock says?" I ask.
She nods.
"then, that is what happened."

"we need to figure out who wrote this" she blurts, suddenly acting like it's all she cares about."who ever is the author of this may be able to explain all of it"

"My word!" I exclaim out of the blue. When, exactly did you decide that you were going to invest your life into this?" I question.

"Well, it's better than going to school!" She replies.

I know Camille, and when she gets curious about something, she will not let go of it until she has some answers.

"There is no way I am getting out of this, is their?" I ask

She answers with what I knew she would say "nope!"
