#680 Casino- Alix Ohlin
A middle-aged woman is being visited by her sister, the richer more successful sister. She still lives in their home-town, never left, physically or mentally. They both have adult children, but hers has gone missing. Rose got involved with drugs and a bad crowd, left home and has never come back or even called her mother.
The sisters go out on the town, get some spa treatment and go to the town’s newest attraction: the casino. Drunk and feeling pretty good, suddenly they recognize the new dealer is Rose’s former drug dealer boyfriend. They get belligerent and demand to know where she is. He doesn’t know, but he knows that she will never come back home.
Notable Passage: “People who look on the bright side all of the time are hypocrites at least some of the time.”
