Sons of Liberty
“Rock woke up late to the smell of gingerbread. His mother smiled as he shuffled into the kitchen.
“Hungry? French toast sound good? I’ve got homemade gingerbread in the oven. If you want to wait another twenty minutes, you can have some of that, too.”
Rock’s stomach grumbled but he didn’t want to sit down and wait for a huge meal while his mother read recipe ingredients out loud, choosing the Saturday dinner. Reading from cookbooks was what his mother mostly offered in place of conversation.
“I...’m just gonna grab this banana.”
“Toast at least. You need toast. You should eat more for breakfast. A banana isn’t enough.” His mother’s words about food were always sure and purposeful. Already she was unwrapping the bread, plunking the slices into the toaster oven. Rock sat down, defeated, and propped his chin in his hands.
“Where’s everyone?”
“Your dad’s swimming at the gym. Cliff took Brontie to the puppet theater at the library; they’ll be back any minute.MoreLess
