Mrs.Marian‧Riddle and Ted‧Riddle are one of my neighbors who lived near a beach in Miami. Mom said that they are truly deeply attached to each other. Even if they are old. On account of this age, they have to live on welfare.

One day, I forgot to bring out the key, and there were no one answered the door as it happens. And I was urinated in haste. So I decided to call on my neighbors in a blink of an eye.

When I walked in front of the steps of The Whites who lived at the right side of my house. I found out that there were a snake
creeping smoothly and slowly just in front of their door. As I`m affraid of snakes I turned around and ran slowly with tiptoed in order to hold up.

As I walked to the left, I saw that Mrs.Riddle was opening the door without "a steel key". Oh my Gash, she used her eye! The fashionable machine:Corneal Scanner!
Amazing, isn`t it?!
But how could she afford that?I wondered. I walked toward her and tell her about my situation, Of course , a kindness granny as she was, she welcomed me with her grandmotherly smile.

After urinating, I saw many intersting things in her house.
But an old big treasure box caught my eye. I asked her with a lot curiousity. She kindly treated me a cake and asked me to sit.

She said that it was all her memories with Ted. As she talked to me, she opened the box with a real key which inlaid in a hammer.
Beyond my expectation, there were
an old message in a bottle and a
wedding picture with some words:"Bourges Cathedral, Irreplaceable Place Forever and ever." "I met Ted with this bottle, I wrote down my address and things into it. And Ted he who catched it when he was traveling on business to Paris. And we falled in love at that time."she said when she looked at the bottle. "And"she continued "we were married at that magnificently church "she said with a little shy and a sweet smiling. And suddenly"Oh dear.....dear....."She said with tear dropped emotionally.

By that time I knew that her beloved husband was died of lung cancer few days ago. And I was overwhelmed. She said " We have a son who plays a decisive role in detective world.
But over this few decades, he had never came back home, not once, he just send us U.S$10,000 per month. We missed him so much! The night before Ted died, I asked him to see his weakness father. Unthought-of he said:OK!OK! I`ll send you double! And then cut down the phone. I was repented and felt sorrily myself. I had nothing but colossal property in the long run."

Honestly, I thought it`s good to be rich. Because you can do anything you want needless to say to hold the authorities. But what make sense? After all, what you losed and sacrificed is the most important thing on earth-- Family Relationships. And if I were the son of the granny, I would come home soon despite a rainstorm or something else!

※This concludes my fictional story.
