Chapter Fifty-Seven

Sam

We stayed with my parents for almost the whole day, just talking about life, and our childhood. I enjoyed it and I think Grace did too. So now we were driving down the road, her hand in mine, and we just watch trees and cars pass us.

"Talking to your parents," Grace said, "Was real enjoyable, I had fun." I pulled into the driveway of Grace's parents so we could pick up the packages for Rebecca. "Stay in the car." Grace demanded. She got out of the car and walked to the front door.

Grace

I knocked, and my mother answered the door.

"Grace," She said hugging me and petting my hair. "Come in, come in, wait bring in Sam, your father went on a business trip."

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Bring him in." I went outside and told him my mom wanted him inside. He didn't refuse and came in. We sat on the couch and my mom's cat sat on my lap. "So what did you two do today?"

"We went to see my parents, Annette and Gregory." Sam said getting closer to me but disguising the close contact by petting the cat.

"Oh well that's wonderful."

"I thought so, it was nice to see them again, and they didn't change much though." Sam shrugged, and then smiled.

"Well I'll go get the package for you." My mom walked out of the room and came back with two packages. "Here you go." She said setting them on the floor next to us.

"Thank you." I said. "So, how are you?"

"Good as always, I guess." She said shrugging.

"How about dad?"

"There are many things that your father needs to work on to become a happy person, and I feel bad that he isn't an enjoyable person though. He's been sleeping on the couch the last few nights; he is going to hold a grudge until the end of his days, over the baby situation." I smiled at my mom and laughed that my dad gets upset over the stupidest of things.

"I'm sorry mom, I really am." I heard sounds of footsteps coming up the front stairs.

"Go out the back door, hurry." Sam grabbed the boxes and we ran out the right before my dad walked in. We ran to the car and Sam places the boxes in the car and we rolled out of the driveway and went down the street.
