#Chapter71
It’s about damn time
Bella
Andrew and I came home from the apple orchard. I grabbed the bag of apples from the car as we went into the house. Dad met us at the door.
/"Why do you two look sickly happy?/" He asked.
/"No reason./" I shrugged.
He gave us a skeptical look, returned to the couch, and continued reading a booklet.
/"What are you doing?/"
/"I’m reading an X-Man comic. What does it look like?/"
/"Why?/"
/"Because I like Wolverine. I wish I had his claws in case Andy Pandy gets out of hand again and subjects me to that horrible music./" He smirked.
/"Well, put the claws away. Andrew and I are back together./"
/"Damn, that was fast. Did you ever hear of making a guy work for it?/"
/"Dad./"
/"I’m just saying, Bella. Did you ever hear the expression, why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?/"
/"No./" I crinkled my nose.
