After Victoria left, Cash paced every inch of his thirty-five hundred square foot condo anxiously. He kept hearing Victoria’s voice in his head.

“I’m pregnant.”

The idea of being a father was starting to sink in. He was going to be someone’s father. He was going to be responsible for another human being’s life besides his and Brittany’s. Technically, he was going to have another daughter.

What the hell?

“Cash! Cash! Where are you?”

Cash made a mental note to ask for his mother’s key back for the third time. He’d already taken it off her key ring twice without her knowing. Did she have a stash of them or something?

“I’m in the kitchen!” he yelled.

A few seconds later, his mother walked into the kitchen laden with brown bags full of fresh fruit and vegetables.

“Where’d you go?” Cash asked as he took the bags out of Jennifer’s hands. “Why is this stuff so dirty? Did you go to a farm?”

“No boy. Ain’t no farms in Manhattan. This is from the Greenmarket over on 175th. You’ll thank me later. All the working out in the world isn’t going to keep that six pack, Cash, if you don’t incorporate some fresh fruits and vegetables into your diet.”

Cash rolled his eyes to the ceiling, but put the groceries in the refrigerator anyway. The state of the art appliance was packed with bachelor necessities that happened to be the same as teenager necessities: cold pizza, leftover takeout, juice, and soda. The freezer was worse.

Cash couldn’t remember the last time he’d cooked a meal for him and Brittany. He hadn’t cooked a meal in his New York apartment yet. Frozen waffles and Stouffer’s lasagna didn’t exactly qualify as cooking.

Jennifer pulled two sides of salmon out of another bag and a box of storage bags.

“Grab a knife and filet this,” she ordered. “Freeze them. You need more lean meats and fish. Cut back on the cheeseburgers and pizza.”

“So, how’s the house hunting going?” Cash asked as he searched for a filet knife. “Still haven’t found anything?”

Jennifer started laughing and patted her son’s back. “I get it. You don’t want to hear it. That’s fine. We’ll talk about something else. Have you heard from Brittany?”

“Every day. She’s having fun.”

Cash made quick work of filleting the salmon. He’d grown up around fish. He knew what he was doing. He sat four of the filets on a plate and bagged the rest of them. After tossing them into the freezer, he volunteered to whip up some lunch.

He fixed a spinach salad and grilled the salmon with a lemon butter sauce. He was starving and cooking might help take his mid off his current situation. He wasn’t supposed to grill on his balcony, but he paid over a grand for his Weber grill and was determined to get some use out of it.

Cash moved around the kitchen like a pro, cutting up vegetables and whipping up light balsamic vinaigrette for the salad. Jennifer kept the conversation going while she watched him cook. Like onstage, Cash was in his element.
