"Randy you are going to be such a good big brother." Mom giggled as she looked at me and Bobo down on the floor coloring. She sat down next to me and placed a kiss on my forehead and observed my piece of art work. "You know, me and daddy found out that you're going to have a little brother."

I clapped my small hands together, and I smiled with five teeth in my mouth. "Yay!"

Mom giggled again. She stood up and lifted me in the into her arms and but dropped me suddenly. I hut the ground so hard that I started to cry in pain. So dad Mom. I wasn't old enough to get the concept of an emergency, but I knew there was something wrong.

"Kurt!" she called. "Kuuuuurt" Mom a look of great pain came over my mother's face. I crawled over to her and place my hand on her sweaty face. She was breathing heavily and her teeth we clenched together as she clench her stomach stomach, that was barely big enough to notice she was pregnant.

"Mommy!" I cried.

She looked like an injured animal. "Where's daddy?" I said.

I woke up in a cold sweat in my car with my head on the steering wheel. I looked over at Bobo who was guarding my mother open journal on the passenger seat. I checked my watch.

"Crap, I'm late for school!" I complained.

I rode to school, part my car, and snuck into my first class. Before I knew it, it was lunch time, and even though I had not eaten, I wasn't hungry. I was planning to eat alone, until I spotted Kenyon sitting alone, looking like a sad puppy who lost his human. I decided to sit with him and catch up. We hadn't really got a chance to talk much.

A confused look spread across his face.

"Are you okay Randy?"

"Yeah, I'm good." I said.

He chuckled. "You do know that you wore the same thing yesterday."

I looked down at my clothes, and it shocked me that half the day was was gone and I had not noticed that I forgot to change my clothes. I had to laugh, that none of my so-called-friends told me. I guess I wasn't as popular as I thought. I thought.

"Where were you last night?" asked Kenyon.

"I fell asleep in the car." I admitted.

He squinted his eyes. "Why?"

I shrugged.

"Whatever." he shook it off.

"Where's the Mrs.?" I joked.

He smiled for a moment, and the his face went into a frown. "She had a production meeting."

My eyes widened sarcastically. "Oh no! How are you holding up!"

He sighed sadly. "I'm not allowed in."

I chuckled. "Seriously? You can't go one lunch period without her?"

He sunk his head. "I just miss her!"

"You are going to see her after school right?" I pointed out.

"Yeah." he sighed

I shrugged.

"Wait until you fall in love Randy." he said. "You'll understand!"

"If that is what is turning you into a blubbering idiot, I'll pass."

The entire last week of school was a blur, graduation actually snuck on on me. It was the morning of my graduation party when I had gotten a call that I wasn't expecting.

"Hello?"

"Randy, is Kenyon around?"

"No!"

"Good!" she said. "Cause I need a huge favor!"
