CHAPTER 2
âHey, Ma!â Drew yelled as he strolled through the first floor of his parentsâ spacious home on Long Islandâs Gold Coast. âMa, Iâm home! Pop, where are you?â
âDrew, is that you?â Joyce came down the stairs as fast as her middle-aged legs could carry her. âHappy birthday, baby boy!â
âThanks, Ma!â Drew wrapped his arms around his mother, lifted her off her feet and swung her around. He planted a big kiss on her forehead. âWhereâs Pop?â
âIâm right here, boy!â Floyd carefully made his way down the winding staircase, taking one cautious step at a time.
âWhat happened to you, Pop?â
âPulled another muscle at the gym trying to keep up with the young boys,â Joyce said.
When Floyd reached the landing, he gave Drew a bright smile and shook his hand and then pulled him in for a hug. âHappy birthday, son! Are you staying for a while this time?â
âA few weeks. Iâm heading back to Europe in February to train for the first race of the season in March.â
âOh, good. I can see more of my baby. I wish I knew you were coming. I would have had something here for you. I sent you a card. Did you get it?â
Drew nodded as Joyce headed toward the kitchen.
âLetâs have a nice breakfast. I just bought some sage sausages. I know how much you love them,â she said.
âOh yes!â Floyd clapped his hands together and rubbed them greedily.
âJust one for you, Floyd,â she warned, pointing her finger at him. âYou need to watch that blood pressure of yours. Itâs been running high lately.â She directed her last sentence to Drew.
âHow are you feeling, Dad?â
Floyd waved away their concern. âIâm just fine. I could still lay you out if I needed to.â Floyd put up his fists, bobbed and then weaved.
Drew looked at his mother with his brows raised and laughed. âDonât worry, old man. I wonât put you to the test.â
âStop teasing your father, boy. Let him think heâs still got it.â She winked at Floyd. âWell, actually he does,â she said, sauntering toward the counter.
Drew scrunched his nose. âThatâs too much information.â They all laughed. âMaââ Drew walked over to where his mother stood and placed his hand on her shoulder ââyou always cook for me when I come. This time, Iâd like to treat you and Dad to breakfast. Letâs go. Iâll drive.â
âNo!â Floyd and Joyce said at the same time.
âIâll drive,â Floyd offered.
âYes. Letâs take your dadâs truck. My heart would be in my throat by the time we got to the restaurant if you drove. I wouldnât be able to swallow my food.â Joyce went toward the foyer. Floyd was on her heels.
Drew scrunched his face again. âI donât drive that fast.â Both Joyce and Floyd stopped walking to look at Drew. âWhat?â Drew asked incredulously.
Joyce peered at him over the rim of her glasses. âWe wonât talk about that, sweetheart. Letâs go have a nice breakfast. Iâm glad youâre hereâin one piece!â The two of them snickered and Drew shook his head, chuckling at his parents.
