“They bought one of those big trailer trucks and they want to drive around the country and see the sights.”
“By themselves?”
He continued to grin. “Yeah. Since my dad’s retirement, they’ve been acting like they’re teenagers again.” He fondly shook his head. “I don’t understand it, but as long as they’re happy, I’m not going to worry about it.”
He filled out the necessary paperwork so that the clerk could ship the item to his parents’ home.
“I’m sure your mother will enjoy her gift.”
He squeezed her shoulder. “I think she will, too.”
“Do you miss your parents since they’ve moved?”
“A little bit. I used to drop by and visit often when they were still living in Miami. Now that they’re farther away, I can’t see them as much as I’d like.”
“I’m sure they miss you, too.”
He shook his head. “I doubt it. I get the feeling they just wanted to get away from everybody and be by themselves. Sometimes I think they forget about me and my brother Deion.” He watched the clerk as she continued to wrap the vase. “As a matter of fact, I speak to my uncle Greg and aunt Gladys more than my parents.”
“Really?”
He nodded, explaining that his uncle was his father’s brother and he grew up spending a lot of holidays at their house with his family.
