The Peacock 1419
"Wait a minute. You are Lorena and Dan's kid."
"Along with my seven brothers and sisters. Wait a minute, I think I saw you at St Jude's a few times." And now it's all coming back to me. I never got to know anyone in that ecccentric community, but now I can say that Nicole looks vaguely familiar. It's been a long time.
"Are they still there, your parents."
"They bailed from here and moved to the interior with my three ypungest siblings. Now they're organizing with a network of anti-vaxxers and eventually they are planning to march on Ottawa. We haven't spoken in a couple of years. I found them so embarrassing that I cut off all contact with them."
"I have some contact with Nicole's family", says Chuck."
"You're my conduit of information about them. Dear Uncle Chuckie."
