RECEIPT #003

EMPLOYEE #44
Of course, #17 knew someone. He always does. He also booked a flight for the both of us to the Cradle so we can meet up with this Double-D-Kidd on the 24th. I don't know how he does it. Always jetting around the world. It's got to get exhausting. Though his eyes lit up when I told him we'd probably have to go across the country. That man loves to travel. Plus, we can stop by Buckeye to meet up with #62 to see if we can help with her Mrs. Felt problem. After we have a sit down with Mr. Walker, of course.
There is… one problem. My parents. It's going to be tricky to convince them to let me fly across the country with a guy I met two months ago. Well, as I'm thinking about it, they have to already know him, right? They're in a coffee-adjacent line of work, and #17 seems to know everyone in the business. And my parents are something of a big name in the industry. I know we were supposed to tell them that we were working for the Cafe and Diner, but… well… my sister and I have been… "creative" with how we phrase it. The Owner and #71 were supposed to pay them a visit, but from what I understand, it kept getting "put off." My parents aren't exactly the biggest fans of the Cafe and Diner.
We may need to rip that Band-Aid off sooner rather than later. I mean, I'm going to the Cradle with #17. That's non-negotiable. My sister got to talk with Mr. Gray, so it's my turn. I just don't know how they're going to take it. Especially considering their, uh, salty associations. Well, like the Owner says, if it was easy, it wouldn't be worth doing.
