No word from the neighbors
Our next door neighbors went to Thailand for a beach resort Christmas. Every time I look at their house I grow more anxious. The couple and their two boys moved in just a few months ago. We've grown to like them quite a bit. But we don't know anybody who knows them.
Yesterday I checked their mailbox. "Maybe somebody is picking up their mail," I thought. "Somebody who's in touch with them." My wife thought otherwise, that they'd asked the post office to hold their mail. Today as soon as the postman came, I rushed next door. There was no mail, and so no way to find out whether they're OK.
I hope they come home soon!
