Today is Sunday.

Amelia and her friends wanted to buy the lot by themselves. The owner of the restaurant recommended a lady to them, who was good at buying and selling real estate. He told them that she would give them the shirt off her back, which means the maximum one is able to give or lose.

They took a conversation with the lady and knew that their allowances were far from enough to buy the lot. She asked them the realtor's name and told them that she would keep an ear out, which means to be prepared to hear someone or something.

The next weekend, the girls went to say goodbye to their lot. They met Diana who was walking five dogs there. The dogs found the black cat and chased it. The girls chased the dogs, but fell in the mud. The cat ran up to the oak tree and the dogs barked around the tree. At that moment, the owner of the lot went there with a man who wanted to buy the lot for his dry cleaning business.
