OhShit  Maw

 

                                                    odd waycourse to be reminded of her 

 

a girl he remembered affectionately Eva Lee he laid her or she laid him on a Crandon beach then they went back to her place to shower off the sand and fuck again 

                                                Eva Lee reminded him

a strange place for his Maw to enter her jumping in like jumping off a building as people below taunted

 

his Maw had to collect him from her place Ill take ya to breakfast No, you come home now. Id have to walk a couple hours I’ll come get you. Ohnoyawont Ill call ya tomorrow Joe. she took that tone he hadnt taken that tone from her in some time and she knew it  Tomorrow Maw

she was none too happy him

earlier he told her she could go without him 

                                              the ride from Miami to Chicago might be laborious or tedious by herself  she might not wanted to drive all alone 

                                      I can take a bus

 

when she pulled up to the apartmentthe address she honked the horn

he stuck his head outside the front door and called to her Dondo that Maw its rude

Come on! Let’s go!

Gettin ruder by the moment

Let’s go!

Park the car Donbe rude come in and say hello an goodbye

                                                               he let the screen door close and walked back into the livingroom

You should just go.

Eva Eva Lee  Please dont countermand me Youre a wonderful woman and person and she doesnt get to act like that like her shit don stink

Joe, she’s your mother.

An that makes how shes acting worse I havent lived under her roof for more than two years she doesnt get to pull that Im your mother shit  her mothering has long passed Were adults She donwanna act it then Ill treat her like a child

I couldn’t get away with that with my mother.

he took her by the chinher beautiful cleftchin Shaddup and kissed her warmly and deeply

releasing her he looked into her big bedroom hazel eyes 

                                                           People will treat you the way you let em  Donwalk on eggshells for anyone

Eva swallowed audibly 

                          But mothers . . 

. . Mothers nothing They walk on their hind legs on the ground as we do  they don walk on thin air even if they think they do  Mutual respect  anif they wont respect you theres no reason to offer it in return

                                              Christ

Excuse me

he turned from Eva and crossed the livingroom to the front door again

his mother was halfway up the walk

she was dawdling 

                     Step on it  Yare acting like a butt-hurt child                                   

Joe, for Christssakes. Eva said behind him

he turned to her Yawanme to come over there an paddle yer ass he pointed with his thumb over his shoulder At the rate shes movin I could really tan yer hide

she laughedshe didnt cover her mouth  No, though not that I wouldn’t like that.

You fracture me babe Yet again another reason why I want my Maw to meet ya You make me feel proud 

                                                                                                                Anif I havent said so Im very proud of you  

Aww, you’re sweet.

I aint

Methinks thou doth protest too much.

he heard his mother at the screen door 

                                         Well have to leave your paddlin for a later date Interest accruing

Oooh.  Suppose we’ll rock n roll, huh?

Rock n roll 

            turned towards the door  his mother was knocking

Christ

he walked to the door and looked through the screen at her Yare being a pain in the asswhy ya being a pain in the ass Please  Stop it  Its unlike you and unattractive  Eva Lees a fine young woman

She is, huh? She’s one of those girls.

Those girls

Yes, those girls.

Yare a piece of work Yare one of those girls yarself

he saw her mouth began to move but cut her offhe opened the door talking over whatever the hell it was she was saying Come in Maw Theres someone Ive wanted you to meet for awhile

Eva Lee had crossed to the threshold standing angled off his shoulder behind him  Welcome to my home.

he wished she hadnt say that 

                                  one shouldnt invite a vampire in
