LOVE IS THERE (BOOK #3 OF THE GILBERT FAMILY)

 Benny's Pov

I was still in bed. I need to get up and get ready for church, but I don't feel like moving yet. All night all I could do is think about Tyler. I need to make it up to him, some how. I looked at the clock and saw it was only 7 in the morning. I got out of bed and throw my boxers back on. Yes last night I slept naked. I walked into the bath room and did my thing, before I went down to the kitchen. 

When I got to the kitchen I was the only one in the room, so I made some coffee. Over there in Iran it would take about 2 or 3 cups for me to get ready. I sat down and was looking at mama's and dad's wedding picture they have hanging on the wall in the kitchen. Mama is lucky to have some one like dad. I would love to have a wife and and some more kids if I could. But there ain't a lot of people who would date a single father. I got up to get me some coffee when Lila walked in to the kitchen as well. She's 14 now and has blossomed kinda fast if you ask me.  

" Morning Benny. How did you sleep last night?" Lila asked me. I looked over at her, some one is in a good mood this morning. 

" Fine. How about you?" I asked her. 

" Good. I went to bed kinda late, but I'm up. I'm going to take a shower then get ready for church? Are you coming to church with us?" Lila said. Wow she like's to talk I see. Okay. 

" I don't know? I might stay here and wait for Tyler to get back. I really want to hang out with him?" I told Lila. 

" Then come to church? John and Tyler met us there every Sunday?" Lila told me. John was going to a Catholic church. Were all Baptist. 

" Okay, Yeah I'll do that? Thanks Lila?" I said to my little sister. 

" No, problem. I'm going to go and get ready?" Lila said. I sat back down at the table and drank my coffee. I was about to go and take a shower when mama and dad walked into the kitchen. Dad's only in his boxers. I see we got that from dad. 

" Morning Benny? Are you hungry?" Mama asked me. I looked over at her and she was getting a cup of coffee for her and dad. Dad went outside to have a smoke. After all of these years he still goes outside to smoke. 

" No thank you mama, I'm going to go and get dress for church." I told her. Mama looked really happy. 

" That's perfect darling? Every one has missed you. The Rev and his family. Lucy and Dean don't even know you are back. Man, I bet mom, Becky and Patty are mad now." Mama said. That's right. Grandma Lisa lives here as well. 

" Mama, where is grandma at?" I asked her. 

" Her, Patty and Becky went on a mini holiday. They will be back in 5 more days." Mama told me. Well, I know I have 5 more days before I have to fine another place to live. 

" We will get Tyler after church right?" I asked my mama. I hope Lila was not pulling my leg when she said that. I want us to hang out. 

" Yes we will. You have some thing you two are going to do?" Mama asked me. I looked at her. 

" I don't know what to do? I mean when he was a baby I did it all. Heck, I wouldn't let you and dad even feed him. But now I'm lost with him." I told mama. Mama walked over to me. 

" Well, he loves playing outside. He like to go fishing? Loves watching movies. You could take him out some where?" Mama told me. That might be a good start. 

" Thanks mama. Love you. I'm going to get ready. Thanks for talking to me." I said walking back to my old room. I got a nice pair of blue jeans and a nice shirt and walked to the bath room.
