Alvin put one of the suitcases on top of the bed. He took out a clean white shirt and a bright red tie. From another of the suitcases, he took out a pair of navy blue pants and a navy blue jacket. He put them on and then found a pair of wingtips.

Then he wondered what was in the heavy blue suitcase. Maybe in it was something he could wear. He dragged the suitcase over and plopped it on the bed. " Man, it's heavy". He started to unzip it. He opened it to reveal stack after stack of 1000 dollar bills.

" Oh, my goodness". Alvin exclaimed. He picked up a stack of the bills. His first thought was the financial stability the money would give him. Scared, he put the stack back and zipped up the suitcase. He put it back by the other three by the door.

There was a knock at the door.
