Loving Charley
“Dad goes to work on the farm, Mama starts figuring out what she is going to cook for supper, and Tessa and I try to keep our minds occupied. Tessa decides that she doesn’t want to stay home and goes to her friend Sally’s. I’m on pins and needles to hear from Cash, but as soon as Tessa’s car is nothing but dust on the road, I try to get a hold of Dustin. Picking up my phone, I call because there is no need to text. I need to hear his voice and know how he feels. Just when I think it’s going to go to voicemail, a hesitant voice answers.
“Hello?”
“Dustin, can you talk?” I ask.
“Hold up a sec.” I hear him fumbling with something and then hear his mama in the background.
He says something to her about having to get something for one of his friends and that he will be right back. Once I hear a door shut, he speaks, “Are you freakin’ crazy calling me?”
“No, I’m not crazy, but I believe you might be. What the hell? My sister is a total mess! I just need to know one thing.
