The next day…

“I’ve got an early mornin’.” Alex yawned, happy to be home and unpacked. He sat in his living room, the television tuned into Comedy Central with the volume turned down low. The washing machine and dryer were going, his stomach was full from a greasy hamburger and fries he’d picked up on the drive home, and he looked forward to getting back to work. The vacation had been a great release but was definitely over. “Thanks for calling though.”

“Yeah, man,” Joshua stated before swigging on his drink. He must’ve been drinking something pretty damn good to chug it like that. “You just were kinda quiet on the way back… wanted to make sure everything was all right.”

“Yeah, yeah… everything is fine, just fine. I’ll holler at you sometime during the week. We can all get together over Larry’s house I guess. He’s havin’ some party next Sunday. Said I wasn’t going but I might stop over if time permits.”

“Yeah, he invited me, too. All right, sounds good. I’ll check you out later.”

“Cool.”

“Oh, before you go, Alex, what happened with you and that lady? Now that we’re all alone, you can tell me… spill the beans.” Joshua laughed in his typical way, the kind of laugh that sounded much like Seth Rogan.

“Nothin’ much. We talked a bit, ate, had sex, and she left.”

“Had sex? You just glossed right over that. Must’ve not been all that great.”

“It was some of the best, if not the best sex I’ve ever had… that’s not it.” He was met with a moment of silence, as if someone had died and they were paying their respects.

“Well then, uh, you plannin’ to see ’er again?”

“Nope. Anyway, I gotta go, Joshua.” He forced a yawn. “I’m tired.”

“All right, man. Check you later.”

His friend ended the call and he sat there in his living room, resting on his favorite dark brown leather chair. Dad had it first for most of his childhood and had given it to him as a gift many years ago. He ran his hand down the arm, real slow, studying the cracks and wrinkles that had appeared over time. He could practically imagine the man sitting there with his cigarette in one hand and his trademark sly smile on his face. He always wore a pair of Dungarees. Daddy worked as a local delivery driver during the week and on weekends, he was a security guard. He made some of the best ham and cheese sandwiches and told the most outrageous stories but swore every single one of them was true.

I miss you, Daddy. Sometimes I wish I could pick up the phone and call you like I used to. You always had good advice, even if I rarely listened…

The soft fuzzy world of sleep soon took him asunder by surprise. Alex’s eyes shot open at a knock on the front door and a couple of rings of the bell. In a state of disorientation, he looked around him then got to his feet, feeling wobbly.
