CHAPTER

TWENTY-TWO

The Cousins

Skyye

it’s moving day!

Skyye

why am I always the one to text first.

Skyye

and y’all take forever to answer.

Flint

because you’re still a kid and have no real responsibilities.

Flint

we are busy young men with girls coming for us at every turn, hockey to play, and we have to cook for ourselves now since Mom isn’t here to do it.

Skyye

I am not a kid. I have a job and parents to care for.

Flint

aren’t they supposed to take care of you?

Ash

I don’t like that Mom is moving in with Dean. Why can’t we find a nice little apartment for her?

Skyye

because it’s tourist season and NOTHING is available. Trust, we looked.

Flint

I looked too.

Flint

this is good. She’s still near SI, and Dean isn’t even home half the time.

Ash

he better be a gentleman and be better than Nyle.

Skyye

Dad is better than Nyle. Aunt Kenni is excited.

Ash

that’s what worries me.

Ash

What if he lets her down?

Flint

he won’t.

Skyye

he won’t.

Ash

I just want her to be happy.

Skyye

we all do. Especially my dad.
