Dotty’s Suitcase
Page 11
Tweedledum and Tweedledee were the first ones off. The woman with the baby was next. Up close, that kid was even uglier than Dotty had thought. She made a face at him and he drooled back.
She and Jud were the last ones off the bus.
“You won’t tell, will you, Jud?” Dotty said. “You won’t tell anyone we found the money?”
Jud gave her a long look. Then he leaned down and mashed his nose against the window.
“I see them,” he said gloomily. “They’re all there. Every last one.”
“Promise you won’t tell, Jud,” Dotty said.
“No,” he said at last. “No, I won’t tell.”
Dotty gathered her suitcase to her as if it held great riches, and, her head held high, she marched down the steps to greet her public.
