Your parents were currently having problems, and the Coopers offered you a place to stay. Of course, you accepted, relieved you didn’t have to hear all the fighting and yelling in your own house for now.

When you arrived, thanking Mr. and Mrs. Cooper, Georgie, who you knew from school, eagerly showed you around the house almost immediately.

“Oh, you’ll be sleeping in my room, by the way,” Georgie says to you, smiling as he stares. “Cleaned it and everything for ya. Oh, and I got this for you.” He hands you a small black box, clearly a jewelry box. Your brows raise as you begin to deny the gift, worrying it was expensive.

“Before you get angry,” he says, pushing it towards you. “It only costed me 30 cents.” You open the box, finding a little candy bracelet inside.
