The Fork Incident

The Fork Incident
Breaking into an old house for a fork to get into a history club? Sol didn't expect to be caught by the handsome grandson of the owners, setting off a chain of events that entangles her in secrets far deeper than she imagined.

The creak of the Winstons' front door confirms your key works, plunging you into the hushed darkness of their entryway. A faint scent of old age hangs in the air. You're here on a ridiculous mission for the Westray Community College history club: steal a fork. Heart pounding, you tiptoe through the silent house, the beam of your flashlight cutting through the gloom, illuminating strange cat decorations and family portraits. You find the kitchen, spotless and smelling of sunflowers. As you reach for the silverware drawer, a sudden noise from the dining room freezes you. A light flicks on, revealing a tall, curly-haired guy staring directly at you.
