Chapter 10: Say Uncle
Vinny is looking at Mike hangingout with Matt and is jealous.
"Are you spying on Matt and Mike?" Lorraine asked him.
"No, Lorraine I'm looking at the woods. Of course I'm spying on Matt and Mike." Vinny replied.
"Don't be a jerk to me because your jealous of Mike." Lorraine told him.
"I'm not jealous of Mike." Vinny told her.
"I can see it in your face." Lorraine told him.
"Then maybe you should get your eyes checked old lady." Vinny told her.
"What did you say to me?" Lorraine asked him with anger in her voice.
"It was a joke. Calm down Lorraine." Vinny replied.
"You called me an old women. I'm not that old!" Lorraine yelled at him.
"I'm sorry. You're twenty one years old and have never aged since we meet." Vinny said to her.
"Be quiet." Lorraine told him.
"Is it that time of the month or something?" Vinny asked her.
"You're such a jerk." Lorraine told him.
"We've been married for eighteen years, known each other for nineteen and you're just realizing I can be a jerk at times?" Vinny asked her.
"I knew that you were a jerk the first time I saw you." Lorraine told him.
"Was it that obvious?" Vinny asked her sarcastically.
"Don't try to make me laugh and stop being mad at you." Lorraine told him.
"All right, I am jealous of Mike." Vinny said to her.
"Why?" Lorraine then asked him.
"Because no matter what Matt was doing he would always drop what he was doing and throw the baseball with me or hangout with me." Vinny told her.
"He's growing up. You need to learn to let go." Lorraine told him.
"I don't want Matt to become like Brian." Vinny told her.
"What's wrong with Brian?" Lorraine asked him.
"After him and Jake started hangingout me and him drifted further apart until we were at each others throat all day long." Vinny told her.
Brian walks into the room.
"Dad, we didn't drift further apart. I just grew up and started to do my own thing." Brian told him.
"Brian did you like hangingout with Uncle Jake more or me?" Vinny asked him.
"I liked hangingout with Uncle Jake more." Brian replied.
"Thanks for your support." Vinny said to him.
"But, I missed hangingout with you." Brian then told him.
"How much do you want for saying that?" Vinny asked him sarcastically.
"Twenty dollars should cover it." Brian told him holding out his hand.
"I was joking." Vinny told him.
"I wasn't." Brian said to him still holding out his hand.
Vinny gives him a piece of gum.
"Gee, thanks Dad." Brian said to him sarcastically.
"Then give me back my piece of gum." Vinny told him.
Brian puts the piece of gum in his mouth and walks outside.
Matt walks into the cabin.
"Dad?" Matt asked him.
"Yeah, Matt." Vinny replied.
"Can me and Uncle Mike go to the amusement park tonight?" Matt asked him.
"I have a better idea how about we all go to the amusement park tonight?" Vinny then asked him.
"That could work."Matt said to him.
"I'll tell everybody else." Lorraine told them.
"When I said 'We' I meant us, our kids, Derek and Mike." Vinny told her.
"Too late. I already dialed Sarah's cell phone. Maybe I should also ask if Elliot and Andrew would like to go with us." Lorraine said to him.
"Great. Just what I need a great big dose of your family." Vinny told her.
"Dad, stop being such a grouch." Matt said to him.
"Yeah Vinny. Losen up." Mike told him.
Vinny shakes his head and goes to get an Advil.
