I was in heaven. I was laughing like a man insane, my happiness was spilling out of me and onto the floor. I couldn’t wait to get to her. I had to h...ld her in my arms. I called my boss and told him the news and asked for the rest of the day off. I did what I needed and drove like a man possessed home. I held her for I don’t know how long before I realized her fragile condition, and stepped back. She just laughed. I mean, she is just a tiny woman in the first place, and pregnant with my baby! . As I had been doing for thelast month or so, I grabbed a rubber band and combed my hair back andput it in a ponytail. Only for some reason, today instead of putting itlow on the back of my head I put it up high in a spot that made itappear more girlish.I grabbed my things and looked at my chin with the 4 hairs I had for abeard and decided to pluck them with a tweezers instead of shaving. Itook my things back to my room and came out for coffee and found Leonon the sofa with his arm on his head. "OH SHIT, MARCA YOUR HOME! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HOME SO EARLY?” The two young hunks turned and looked at me with their pants almost up. I looked at them and than at mother. “I live here, so I came home. Shit mother what if I had been dad, its Sunday he may come home at any minute!” “No dear I dropped him off at DFW at 10 this morning, he has a meeting in LA at 8 there time in the morning.” I smiled, shit she knew what she was doing. “Marca I think you. “We can do it just that easy!”The next morning Granny and I left for town in separate cars right after breakfast. Granny was on the county planning commission and she had a meeting this morning.We met Mr. Harp at the diner and drank coffee until it was time to open his office.“Josey, Judge Homer Skelley called me at home last night and told me that the he wanted the county planning commission put in a bid for the Garcia place. I told him that Early and you had already agreed to buy it.“He asked.
