Ashley checked the food again to assure it would be ready at the right time, for her guests were to arrive soon, according to the clock on the wall.
She knew her sister must be pretty desperate and have exhausted every other option before asking her to look after her nephew for the next month. They rarely saw eye to eye on anything and were near complete opposites to one another. Her sister was one of those conservative and proper types, always the perfect wife, perfect mother, perfect neighbour, and constantly maintaining the image of a good citizen. She on the other hand was a free spirt, unconcerned about the opinions of society, and followed her whims and wants without worry.
That made her the sort of black sheep of the family…. an unhinged kook in her sister’s opinion!
Ashley just couldn’t understand wasting time and life being tied down by the endless taboos, or dos and don’ts, society seemed determined to saddle people with. So, she tended to do what she wanted, try the things that interested her and generally have fun where she could… no matter how dangerous, bad it looked or improper it was.
That was why it had surprised her when her sister had asked if her nephew could stay with her while they were on their trip, trusting him with her.
She straightened her clothes out, wearing a loose turtle-neck jersey, a medium length skirt, for once, and slightly heeled shoes….. for her sister’s sake…. avoiding the usual comments on her style being too boyish, too sexy and bordering on slutty, in her sister’s opinion.
Ashley hoped her nephew would like staying with her at her cabin in the woods, though calling this place a cabin was a great understatement, for it was a large several story house with a two-car garage. It was mostly two story, with a small third story attic space with two or three rooms, and a full basement thought that was divided into three sections.
Hearing the sounds of a car pulling up on the gravel driveway, she hurried out the front door to greet her family…..
