I met him a month later. He came over with his friend, Billy Bouche. I had talked to Chris, my dad, on the phone so I thought I knew what to expect. Boy was I wrong!! after the initial shock had worn off I saw we are practically exactly the same... Thick dark brown wavy hair, although his was greying. Bright green eyes and he was tall, like majorly tall. I had his high check bones and thick eyelashes. But I am more slender than him, my soft looking yet muscular curves in all the right places are defiantly not from this slightly overweight man. Obviously from my mom's side. Chris showed me a picture of her and I have to admitt, she's beautiful! Luckily I share the same small, pixie like features as her.
"Binnky, doll, it's nice to meet you again!"
Chris pulls me into a tight hug.
"You to sir" I reply, rather stifly. I mean, wouldn't you if practically a STRANGER decided to come and bear hug you?
"Nonsense!! None of that formality with me Binnks... we'r family after all" he lets me go smiling, while I suck in gulps of air, trying to replace the oxygen he squeezed out of me.
"O... of course" I splutter out trying my best to smile back before turning to Billy.
"Mr Bouche, an honor to me you. again I guess?" I ask hesitantly while stretching my arm down to the man in the wheelchair.
He grinned taking my hand, before pulling me into another bone crushing hug... Literally, I think I heard a couple of cracks.
"Binnky, my dear, I agree with your father! I used to see you wondering around in your dippers and having baths with my boys, don't be so formal" He chuckles, while I turn crimson.
"Yes of course" I smile back politely and went back to my chair besides Sue. We continued to talk about random events in my life and I was actually enjoying my self until I noticed the time.
"SHIT!" I say jumping up quickly
"Language in this house Bink" Phil scolds quickly
"Sorry, it's just that I'm late for the yard and I've still got Maxie to do as well as Mrs Poswans mare. She'll fire me if I'm....." I trail off looking at the clock.
"To much later" I say giving a sheepish grin to Sue. She sighs,
"Do you need a lift honey?"
"Well only if your offering, I wouldn't want to make you later for anything or be an inconvenience..." she raises her eyebrow
"Yes please" I say sheepishly.
"Hurry up then, let's go" I grab my bag and chuck Sue her keys making my way towards the door.
"What yard?" I jump, I had completely forgotten about Chris and Billy being here.
"Oh, urm, erh, I have a horse, Maxie, and I work at a yard to keep him" I say scratching my neck.
"You ride?" Chris sound genially surprised .
"A little" I admit sheepishly, I look up at him to see him beaming brightly while Billy chuckles.
"That's fantastic !!!!"
"Urmm... do you want to come see?" I ask rather awkwardly
"You betc'ya" Him and Billy move towards me and grab the cowboy hats and boots. huh, that's weird.
"Let's roll kiddo" Billy says rolling past me.
