Totally flummoxed, Elliott made the short walk home, his mind spinning over thoughts of what Jamal had in store for them. “MOM, I’M HOME,” he ca...led out as he entered the house.“I’m up here, honey.” His mother’s voice filtered down the stairs from her bedroom.Elliott made his way up and dropped his knapsack in his room before tapping at his mother’s partly open door.“Come in, sweetie.

I'm gonna check out the living quarters in the other part of the station.".
