Jailbait
“Shirley serves London broil to Fred and Mike and gives me a vegetable and cheese omelette which is actually almost edible. Then she piles some chicken slices with the skin cut off on top of the little postage scale she keeps on the counter to measure out her Weight Watchers-approved portions. By the time she brings her plate over to the table, Fred is holding his empty dish up in the air, which means he's ready for seconds, so she has to serve him again before she gets to sit down.
Nobody r...eally says much at dinner, I don't know why. Maybe because we're not used to eating together as a family anymore. Or maybe since we're all on our best behavior for my birthday, no one wants to bring up anything that could start a fight. Which basically rules out everything.
When we're done eating, Fred clears his throat. “Why don't you and Mike retire to the living room?” he asks.
