Isaiah

He should have cut his hair.

Darren Josiah (Josh) Gage, IV would take one look at Isaiah and brand him unacceptable to be the Gage Scholar, let alone to work at MAS Oil.

He tied his hair up. It’d be fine. He’d gotten up early and would be chipper. Hopefully it’d score points with Josh Gage. Small points for sure, but something an A game required.

He slid his phone into his front pocket and headed for the kitchen.

The house was quiet as he walked down the grand staircase. He hadn’t heard anyone moving about since he left Darren’s room the night before. Not surprising, given the size of the house.

His heart pounded as he walked around the house alone for the first time. He kept expecting someone—Josh—to pop out of a room and stop him. Eye him up and down and wonder—even for a split second—what this intruder was doing here.

He saw no one, but as he approached the kitchen, he heard voices.

“He was an ass, Mom. Gave Ms. Plower a drink order as if she was a waitress, not the event host.”

“You can’t judge him on a single action.”

Should Isaiah leave or announce his presence?

“It was more than that. There definitely won’t be a second date.”

“That’s fine, dear. Plenty of men from good families available. I’m sure I can find you a few to choose from.”

Darren didn’t answer immediately, and Isaiah wished he’d backed away sooner.

He turned and walked toward the patio.

So, Darren’s mother had ideas about who was acceptable for her son. Men from good families. Rich families with the right pedigree. No-names from the bad side of a small city need not apply.

He opened the patio doors and stepped into the brisk late-September morning.

This was his kind of weather. After the heat, but before the snow. Snow Erie got far too much of. Snow Ian and Isabelle would have to shovel, now that Isaiah wasn’t there.

God, he needed to move all of them away.

He glared at his groin. “Listen to the big head. Or you’re gonna ruin our chances.”
