The Mystery

Micheal sat on his couch reading a book when there was a knock at the door. He set the book on the coffee table. He answered the door, To see his sister Jean standing there covered in bruises and glitter. He was about to ask what happened when she started to speak.
"Whatever happens whoever comes knocking I've been here for at least an hour."
She pushed past him went across the room. Micheal followed her, she opened the door the big cabinet that held the linen, she cleared a shelf off before climbing onto the shelf closing the door behind her.
"Uh, Jean what are you doing?."
"Hiding."
He was about to open the cabinet door again When another knock came from the door. he answered it to see a teenage boy standing there.
"Hi, I was wondering if you saw this girl."
He held up a wanted poster with Jean on it.
"What did she do."
"She started a riot at the carnival."
"No sorry haven't seen her."
"OK if you do call this number please."
"I will."
He closed the door and headed back to the cabinet, He opened the door and showed the wanted post to Jean,
"Care to explain?."
"Nope."
And with that she closed the cabinet door again, Michael sighed as he heard a knock at the door again he answered it to find some girl scout selling cookies, he bought some, Then went back inside, He was surprised to Jean seating on the couch. watching the TV.
"So that's it?."
"Yep if I was going to be arrested the police wooed have shown up already."
Michael took the seat next to her, then offered her a cookie she took the whole box, They spent the rest of the night watching a rerun of M.A.S.H
