Friday wasn't a special day of the week for the Castille household. Orland & Luiza Castille were working at the local hospital as usaul, since the emergency room is always full. The town respected their services since they started to work there a couple years ago. Orland would often find out that someone paid his coffee at the local diner as a way of giving back. At the market, someone would always offer to help out Luiza. They often get annoyed by the overkindness of the citizens. When they aren't working at the hospital (which isn't often), Luiza would help out at the elementary school during a book fair or a science fair. Orland was also the treasurer of the local catholic church, where the whole family goes on Sundays. Noah won't make a big deal about going as it only last about two hours before high noon.
Noah Castille spent the day reading some history book about America while hearing the news on the television in the living room. Nothing interesting happened besides Elizabeth Hart checking up on him once a while. Elizabeth would often show up to the Castille household with some drinks from her drive thru business. He only wanted a large cup of water with crushed ice. She's a cool person to hang out with as she was still single and planned on being single until she was in her late forties.
Before she left, Noah asked her if he could go over to Debra Delaney's house. She said it was fine as long as she notified his parents. He was fine with it and started to head towards Debra's house; however, he made sure that everything was off and the doors were locked. The keys to his household were put in his pocket as he started to walk.
It took awhile before he was nearby the street where Debra lived. The Castille lived on the wealthy side of the town away from the southern part of town, where druggies would hang out and live. Orland and Luiza dealt with several overdoses in the recent months as the problem got worse. Noah knew all of that because he often read paperworks when he was at the hospital, despite his parents grabbing it before he got to the good part.
Noah knew that summer had arrived as he felt like he was going to melt on the concrete. Thankfully, he still had the drink by the time he got to Debra's house. He finished it and went to their trashcan, where he threw the cup away before walking to the door. His family always taught him manners towards everyone from opening doors for people to knocking on the door of someone's house. Well, his father mostly taught them to him as he didn't want his son to be like the pothead teenager that lives with his 'friends' at the trailer park.
He knocked on the door and waited as someone approached, and opened the door for Noah. He was told that Dreba was the basement with her friends. The basement was small for a group of six people to fit in, not eleven as he remembered the time that they watched The Thing. He still remembered the ending as he knew that something was about to happen before the credits roll.
At the basement, Noah heard that Operation: Madcat was going to happen on Monday. He heard the plan and saw the map in person. The group of eleven people would have to take several hiking paths to get to Kalispel Hill. The name made sense, because anyone who thought that this plan was great is a 'madcat'. He silently laughed as he thought of the terrible pun before he heard Daniel and Val saying something about being adults or an older person along. Noah agreed as someone could easily get lost in the forest while trying to follow the trail.
“I agree with both Daniel and Val's suggestions. Unless the plan includes us getting lost in the woods and meeting a grizzly bear, I think having someone who's older won't hurt our chances in meeting Mr. Madcat.” Noah supported the idea of bring an older person with them. He didn't have much to say about Mr. Madcat other than he doesn't trust him, but the others do and he doesn't want to deal with arguing whether Mr. Madcat was insane or not.
Before the others could speak up, he realized that he might know someone that can watch over them: Elizabeth Hart.
“I think that I know someone that could watch us on Monday.” he answered Felix's questions before continuing the conversation,
“Do you guys know Elizabeth Hart? She's a close friend to my family and has been watching me since I was a kid. She's the manager at the drive-thru, but I think that she can take off of work for a couple days as she recently hired several new workers. Plus, she's a cool person to hang out with.”
