CATCH

The baseball slammed into Thomas’ glove and he felt the familiar sting of it. Frank still had a strong right arm and he’d really flung the last one. Thomas nodded his head to his father signaling that he respected his power.

They played catch in Frank’s backyard. Thomas was over for dinner but had not brought Sarah along. There was always tension when she came to visit and Thomas didn’t need any more stress in his life right now.

When Shaun and Cahan were alive, they’d play four corners catch. He smiled a little at the memory.

When he was a kid, all he wanted was to be grown up and now that it was here, he missed the days when he was carefree. He supposed that you never had a time in life where you were completely satisfied with anything.

Thomas reared back and threw the ball as hard as he could. Frank caught it and tossed it back just as hard.

Thomas suddenly realized that his father was never in the nightmare in which he was always shot. But that made sense, he thought. Frank was still alive. The others were men whose time had come and had gone on to glory. He was aware that it was just the two of them now, the last of the Riley men.
