Five tickets.
A resort deposit.
Designer clothing.
Two spa appointments.
A seafood restaurant.
A car service from the airport.
A jewelry store in Bal Harbour.
My thumb stopped over the screen.
The jewelry purchase was dated four days before Christmas.
Three thousand eight hundred dollars.
The account balance was forty-two dollars and sixteen cents.
I scrolled backward.
There was no payment to a night nurse.
No grocery delivery.
No pharmacy charge.
No payment to the cleaning service I had arranged.

A series of transfers, all for the same amount.
Nine hundred dollars.
One in August.
One in September.
Two in October.
One in November.
All sent to a company called Hudson Family Consulting.
