"Oh yeah. I forgot about that road. Well, we better get going."
Julia picked up her keys. "Wait. You didn't see Cecil in there, did you?"
"Not unless he got inside the cabinets."
Julia went into the bedroom and looked around. She lifted the skirt of the bed and peered underneath. No cat. She looked in the closet. No cat (as far as she could tell, with all of her junk in the way).
"We have to get going," Justin commented.
"Cecil!" Julia called.
"He's just hiding! We have to go, now!"
Julia shrugged and sighed.
"So how's it done?"
"You won't need your keys, but take them if you want," he said. "Hold my hands."
