Amber hasn't been in contact with them. Crystal Naydean and Annette are both working minimum wage jobs, living in trailers.
If they knew all the free stuff Tucson gives away to out-of-state deadbeats, they would already be on a Greyhound to the Great Southwest.
Exactly.
I don't understand why they're staying up here, when their sister is living the good life in Tucson. Amber has furniture that is no doubt nicer than anything that Crystal and Annette are going to get their paws on, free housing with real wood floors, and a job at a coffee shop that patronizes to a more sophisticated clientele than you'd expect to run into at either of her sister's places of employment. I'll also bet neither of her sisters hob-knob with anyone who can afford to invite them to tool around enjoying the sights and sounds of Joplin.
The good life. It's all happening in Tucson.
