Jeth saw his mother’s cheeks turn a rosy pink as she came to the doctor’s side. Dr. Harris pulled a chair next to his own and draped his arm across the back. “Sit right here, Regina, where I can keep you close.”
She ducked her head shyly, then sat down and blushed some more.
Jeth’s grin grew and he felt excitement at what he thought would be good news. “Are you two getting married?”
“You betcha,” the doctor said.
“When?”
“Right after the first of the year.”
Jeth rose from his chair. “Congratulations.” He went around the table and hugged them both. “I couldn’t be happier.” He gave his mother an extra squeeze. “But why wait?”
The doctor grinned at Regina. “Your mama said she has some things she has to do first. Promises to keep.” Dr. Harris turned his smile on Jeth. “And we want you to perform the ceremony. Will you, son?”
Jeth nodded. “I would be honored. Welcome to the family, Doctor.”
“Welcome to my family, son.” The doctor patted Jeth on the back. “I guess you’ll really be my son soon, won’t you.”
“Yes, sir. I guess I will.”
Jeth was glad his mother had found love again after all these years, and he’d always liked Dr. Harris. But he couldn’t help wondering what would become of the boardinghouse after his mother married.
Should he start looking for a new place to live?
