I really hate those damn birds!!! It's so early, I wanna keep sleeping, but it's impossible with so much birding going on, ughhh.
Fel is not in bed with me, I already hate this day.
So after a long and relaxing shower I go in looking for coffee. And here it is, my man, cleaning the dining room like crazy. I surprise hug him for behind "what you doing babe?"
"Have you seen this place?" He waves his arms like a crazy person "we can't have people eating here!!"
"We're not eating here babe" he is adorable when he panics "there's a big table outside by the grill"
"Oh thank God! This entire place need deep cleaning, we're hiring someone, I'm warning you"
"Sure dear" I'm nibbling his neck"
"Stooooop" he whines like a puppy "we have a lot to do in just three hours"
"Here's something I'd like to do" I slap his perky little bubble butt.
He elbows me in the ribs "if you're a good boy I let you play with it tonight"
"Eeewww don't call me a good boy" my entire body shivers "not here at least, feels weird"
"Fine, whatever, don't change the subject"
"You can relax, my man, there's nothing much to do, I'll go buy some meat and stuff. You can make this place livable in the meantime"
"Are you kidding, there's a lot more then cleaning needed. We're going to have to paint the walls, get new furniture" he squints looking at the place, "you're going to have to throw down a few walls, this place feels suffocating" he walks away "and you're going to have to remodel the entire kitchen, it's a travesty!"
We don't need to do all that to sell the house, but I don't point that out, something tells me it would be my head.
I'm loading Jessi with bags full of meat when I realize I forgot to buy coal, so I start walking to a drugstore when an old man almost bumps into me "James?" He gives me a week smile "is that you kid?"
"Mr Parker" curls dad, I try to keep on walking, but he steps in front of me, what the fuck does he want?
"It's good to see you are back"
"I'm not back" fuck he pisses me off, he was one of mom's allies that last day "I'm selling the house"
I try to walk away, but he doesn't let me "look, kid, I wanted to apologize, I shouldn't have listened to your mother, I mean it was such an obvious lie, but I didn't think and..."
I fucking had enough "I don't give a fuck! I don't need your apology, I don't fucking want it, as far as I'm concerned you and all the others can just go fuck yourself" I turn around and walk away. "Fuck! I don't need this shit right now"
I'm so pissed, where's that emotional growth when you need it. Fuck. I turn around again, I'm cracking my knuckles and he takes a step back kinda scared, That's kinda funny, actually. I walk towards him "look, I'm sorry I'm being an asshole, it's been a weird couple of days... I was going that way actually"
I point to the store and walk by him like he is not even there.
And fuck, that felt better than walking away. Emotional growth for the win!
I'm starting the fire with Jee, the kids are playing in the canal, Fel and CC are having wine and laughing. And I'm having a moment. It's weird. Good weird.
Maybe we shouldn't sell the house, maybe that's what Fel was going on about this morning.
I'm kicking Jee away, I hate backseat cooks, and this is my grill damnit!. I'm taking care of the meat, when Matt shows up with a cooler full of beer. Fel and CC instantly grab hold of him and take him to the table, like a child lost in the supermarket, Jee does the same, but with the cooler.
We chat, we drink, we eat and we drink again, we are having a perfect lazy Saturday.
Matt is hitting on with CC and Jee, and is looking a lot better, still no one asked him about the assholes, and I think that's what has him more at ease.
The afternoon got hot as fuck, so all of us jump in to the canal, we're treating it like a weird ass hot tub, drinking beers having a blast, very cosmopolitan in a rural kind of way. And I am loving every second.
"Who's that?" Fel points behind me, of fuckin course a good day couldn't last.
There are two guys coming our way, in my fucking backyard, one is a hunk handsome
guy, the other one is a... Curly.
