I see and unreadable look on Mrs. Calvary's face. It was stern, angry, and even sad in some places.
"Mom, look at me." Katie pleads
She does and Katie takes her hand in hers.
"You want to go into the house?"
"Yeah, we'll make sure you're okay. Come on, I know you don't want to see this." I say quietly
Miss Calvary stands up strong, and let's Katie and I lead her into the house. We see Josh and Priah in the kitchen making out with Priah on the countertop. . They pull apart once they see us with embarrassed expressions and awkward clearings of the throat. It seems to me that if we would've came in just a few minutes later, there would be more to be embarrassed about.
"Really Josh?" Katie says dryly with a straight face.
"Sorry." He says sheepishly
He takes one look at Mrs. Calvary's face and is immediately concerned.
"Mama, what's the matter?" Josh asks concerned
She places her hand over her mouth and sits heavily on one of the stools behind her. Josh looks towards Katie.
"There is something outside that doesn't belong. You better go out there before something happens."
He rushes out without another word and we are all left in the kitchen.
"You okay Miss Calvary? Can I get you anything?" I ask her
"Some wine, please." She says quietly
I look towards Katie.
"Where's the wine?"
"There are wine chillers outside."
I go outside to get one. Warily I look around to see if Leo has done anything rash. I see him quickly getting aggravated, with Oliver and Josh holding both of his arms to keep him steady. His father is in front of him, and from the sly look on his face, he seems to be baiting him. I put the wine down on a nearby table and begin to walk over.
"What are you even doing here!? You put mom through enough!"
"You think you're a man Leo? No boys, let him go, I want to see him try and hit me."
"Nah, let me go you guys so I can give him what he wants." Leo said tightly
I finally reach the uproar and get between the two bickering men.
