Passage 2: The Professor left the kitchen, but he forgot his briefcase. He didn't come back for it. Jeff heard him go into his s
tudy, which used to be a living room, back down the hallway at the front of the house. What used to be the dining room was the living room.

Jeff did his homework at that table too, because there was no room for a desk in his tiny bedroom tucked under the eaves at the back of the house.
