Brent stood up seeing how anxious his mom was as she looked at him, "Mom I am getting late, so I have to leave."
Turning around, he was about to head out when his mom called out, "Junior!"
Just then his eyes glimpsed his dad coming down the stairs, and he was about to fall, "Dad stay there, Dad" running up the stairs.
Hearing his Dad say "What is happening to me, how can I still be drunk after drinking one peardrax?"
Rushing to his father Brent was wondering what exactly was happening, "Dad, be careful."
Hearing his son's voice Brent Senior realized that his son was home, "Junior you are home? Where were you and when did you return?"
"Sorry Dad, I met a friend and forgot about the time, it seemed you were worried but as you can see I am okay, but tell me what has happened to you?"
Hearing his son laugh when he said, "Let me give you a backy ride, I didn't know you were a strong drinker. Look at how drunk you are, how could Mom conceal this from me for so many years?"
Ignoring what his son said and what he was thinking of this madness, he said, "Florence will you go to the doctor?" He urges as he tries to make sense out of the nonsense.
Refuting her husband in haste, "Why should I go to the doctor, do I look sick, you drunkard fool?"
Insisting, Brent continues to plead with her, "Florence honey, please visit the Doctor I am going to be a Father again."
Exhaustion overwhelmed her, her patience had reached boiling point. Unable to contain her anger any longer she snapped at him, "I see, and who in their right mind is having a baby for you?"
Brent reached out his hand and stroked her face, "You, my beautiful wife, it seems as though I am losing my mind, tell me, my dear, do I need to visit a psychiatrist or is it for real."
Florence becomes agitated but seeing him in such a helpless position she is aggrieved, "Brent, what madness you are talking about, I am over the age of childbearing so stop talking nonsense."
Brent Junior couldn't help but look and hear both conversing as though he wasn't even in the dining room. "Please love, bring me some water to drink nothing stronger."
Brent finds the conversation very strange, "It's the first time his dad looks so helpless and why is it I feel like they have hidden a secret from me?"
As they continued to converse and he listened he was even more stunned he was unable to believe what he was hearing and last night, how did Dad know I was in the apartment? That was truly amazing, so I had to rush home after I put Jessy to bed. But why are they talking about having a baby? Are they out of their minds? I still can't believe how intoxicated Jessy was.
Reaching home only to see Rosanna asleep in the garden waiting for them annoyed me. Having no choice I quietly shun away. and using the fire escape. I hurried up and locked the window. Thank God she was out like a lamp. I also heard Mom saying she had to prove them wrong but this is unreal, If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I would have laughed outright thinking they were both losing their mind.
Looking at his Dad, 'he could barely talk or walk, is Jessy in the same condition? Oh God, I have to reach her before she goes to work.'
Recalling last night's episode how she and Dad were laughing. "God I know he will like her, but Mom can't seem to accept her, but why?"
"Here Brent sober up," seeing him drink the water and half was on the floor, "Lord, what sort of madness is this?"
"Honey, please! "
Having no choice Florence's anger subsided gradually seeing his helplessness yet her husband was, responded gently, "What is it, Brent?"
Brent lifted his hand but it landed on her lap, "Honey remember how we used to laugh when you were pregnant?"
Memories flooded Florence's mind light lightening, "Yes!" She chuckled as though it was the most unusual thing she had experienced.
When her husband said, "Honey, believe me when I tell you I feel that same joy."
Confused looking at them as though they were not his parent, "You do?"
"Yes!"
