Jeff has agreed to keep an eye on his friend&#8217;s sister while she&#8217;s in Orchard Hill.&nbsp; He&#8217;s only known her for a couple of days, but she&#8217;s already caused a lot of trouble for him. This includes sending Jeff to the emergency room after he eats muffins that she bakes. The muffins contain peanuts, which he is allergic to.<\/p>\n<p>From Entertaining Angel &#8211;<br \/>He picked up Susan at five thirty on the dot. Susan liked to go out early. She was a morning person, like him, so it didn\u2019t bother him.<br \/>\u201cHi Jeff,\u201d she said when she let him into her house. \u201cI heard you had some bad luck today.\u201d<br \/>\u201cA little. Nothing to worry about.\u201d<br \/>\u201cWho\u2019s the new girl at your place?

He\u2019s done lots of favors for me.\u201d<br \/>Her eyes narrowed. \u201cWhat does this sister look like? Is she pretty?\u201d<br \/>Susan had many good qualities, Jeff told himself. Unfortunately, the one glaring fault she did have was jealousy. Perhaps it was because of her fiercely competitive nature.<br \/>\u201cHow she looks has nothing to do with it.\u201d<br \/>\u201cIf she needs a keeper she must be either gorgeous or completely incompetent.\u201d<br \/>\u201cShe\u2019s nice.
