The Concept of Family II
Winry snatched the phone from my hand so quick I never even got a chance to blink. I didn't have to tell her who it was on the other line. She knew by the look in my eyes that I was talking to my brother.
"Edward…where are you? I have to car I'll come and get you…" She barked into the phone. Me and Kate smirked and watched where the conversation was going. This would get either really ugly or really amusing.
"Yes I realize that…even if I hate you right about now. I can't help but feel a slight pity for your joints; you didn't even bring some pain medicine. And you know you will be sorry in the morning…" She warned. I could hear brothers voice take on louder tone but he wasn't yelling…yet.
"Edward…. (She dragged his name out) Do you want me to come or not! Why do you still have to drag things out! I am trying to be civil!" She hollered back into the phone. This time me and Kate heard Edward's voice.
"Were you being civil when you called me a selfish bastard that never thought of his wife and family!!? Or how 'bout what you said about my performance…that was a low blow and you know it!"
Yikes, even I had to admit when a woman bashes the 'performance issue' that can make the calmest of men sore. But I think her 'bastard' comment was a little over board. Edward never wanted to be compared to our father; the word bastard could do that easily.
Winry sighed and looked to the floor in defeat. She knew something's that Ed argued about was true. He may have not gone about the right way but he was still right.
"Look, Ed…just tell me where you are, it's too cold out tonight. We can talk about this later…okay. I am sorry for that, it was wrong of me to say those things. But you are no angel in this either…" She sighed, fingering a strand of buttercup hair.
"What go to the window…Why?" Winry asked taking a few steps to the window that over looked the street. Kate and I joined and I think we all growled at the same time. There brother was standing in a phone booth about 100 feet away. We could see his metal hand glistening against the soft glare of the street lights. He was waving, thought we could not see his face.
Winry let out another sigh and hung the phone up. "Sorry for disturbing you guys…I have a child to go attend to..." She hissed, turning on her heel and leaving the room. We heard her lock the door and it close with a click. Not but a minute later we heard the shouting of their voices out side our window. After a few moments of shouting, we heard nothing. I got up and peaked out the window to my brother pressing his wife against thier car in pure bliss.
He knew the Concept of family…they had their fights, but that's what kept their marriage together. They held a certain fire for each other and it showed in how both of them even after all these years, two children and auto mail could never get enough of each other.
A/N Well, what did you think??
