It had taken days, but finally, Michael knew. The large house, and the way her car was parked, and the security systems pointed to wealth. Mrs. Rodriguez, who sold him the best oranges at the farmer’s market, was rich.

“Mrs. Rodriguez!” he called. Her face lit up. "Michael! What a nice surprise." He smiled. "I figured you might need some fresh fruit."
