Smell of Resin

MYSTERY:ACTION & ADVENTURE Thirteen-year old Loretta Lund feels for her little sister, Lou Anne, as their mom drops them off during a thunderstorm at her brother's business, Rock Store Grocery. She listens as her mother, all smelly in perfume and red lipstick, explains to Uncle Pete that the six-year old won't give him any trouble, but Loretta now is a different story; she is a dreamer, and she is a sleepwalker! Soaking wet, Lou Anne screams as the cab pulls onto Salem Road, desperately trying to touch her mother's skirt one more time. Fending off the rain, Loretta peers over her shoulder as a young delivery boy, her age, reaches into his jeans for sweets, trying to comfort little Lou Anne with BB bats. Things start to change around the rock store for Loretta-she believes in love at first sight! Loretta said goodbye to her mom that day, at the age of thirteen when she really needed her. But life went on at Rock Store for the two siblings and dreams of being kidnapped filled their heads. Was the kidnapping a dream-or was it real? #FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS
