Chapter 1

ā€œSo why are we coming here again?ā€

I glanced at Carl and grinned. ā€œWell,for one thing itā€™s a cheap place to stay. Cheap as in free,ā€ I said, making aleft on Wicked Way. Yes, that was the street name and a few blocks down wasFlying Monkey Road. I shit you not. My folks lived in a section of town wherethe streets are named for The Wizard of Oz.

When I say folks, I guess now I justmean Gil. And Gil isnā€™t even my dad. Heā€™s my stepfather.

ā€œFree is good,ā€ Carl said. Carl worksin honky-tonk bars playing guitar when he can. Works behind the bar when he hasto and in the kitchen washing dishes only when heā€™s desperate.

ā€œI thought youā€™d see it that way.ā€

ā€œBut why are we visiting Gil whenyouā€™re momā€™s not even here, Jenny girl?ā€ he asked.

I hate being called Jenny girl. Truthbe told, I prefer just Jen. Jennifer if you have to be formal. I shrugged,taking the long, steep hill that would lead to my house. All of Pleasant Parkswas visible from up here and I put my foot on the brake to still ourprogress--just to look. Seeing my hometown did odd things to me. Part of mefelt comforted to be home, part of me felt claustrophobic. Like I wanted tosmoke a pack of cigarettes, drink a bottle of cheap wine and hit the road in abeat up old muscle car. And run like hell.

Nostalgia can be sickly sweet.Delicious in one instant, cloying in the next.

I shrugged, lifted my foot off thebrake and let us drift down hill, let gravity and small town roots do theirwork. ā€œI want to check on him. Gil and I didnā€™t get a great start,ā€ I said,stopping at the corner before hitting the gas and dragging us closer to myhouse. ā€œBut he was a good dad to me. And now Marianā€™s up and left him. And me,if you must know. She wonā€™t call me back or contact me or any of it. My motherhas started a new life. It does not include Gil and it does not include me,ā€ Isaid.

ā€œThink heā€™ll care?ā€

ā€œYes and no,ā€ I said. ā€œI think Iā€™ll bea suck ass reminder of her, but thatā€™s the way the gene pool goes. But I thinkhe wonā€™t much mind the company and he is a family man--a good man. This isalways to be my home. Told me so when I left.ā€

ā€œAh, but what about me?ā€ Carl laughed,putting his big, nicked up hand on my thigh and pushing it high up. I wanted topress myself down so he could reach me, I wanted to pull myself back so hecouldnā€™t. I wasnā€™t quite sure where I stood on Carl right about now. Only timewould tell, I figured.

It had been fun and games and sex anddrinking and parties for months. But now I wanted to start a new lifesomewhere, and Pleasant Parks was on the way to somewhere. So I was startinghere. Carl was just along for the ride, and something told me that was how heā€™dlive the rest of his life. Along for the ride. I wasnā€™t sure if I was okay withthat or not.

ā€œYouā€™re with me. Thatā€™s all he needsto know. Iā€™m a big girl.ā€

ā€œI wouldnā€™t say big. Iā€™d say curvy,ā€œhe said and winked at me. That hand crept higher, his fingertip brushing undermy short skirt, under the elastic band of my panties. I let him. When the tipof his pinky finger tickled at my clit, I held my breath. ā€œWhatā€™s he do,anyway?ā€

ā€œStained glass,ā€ I said. ā€œCustompieces. Heā€™s been doing it since I was a kid.ā€

ā€œMake a lot on that?ā€

I shrugged. ā€œYou can. He has. Churchwindows and local dedications for big buildings. Funeral memorials and folksā€™houses. Heā€™s done okay.ā€ I drifted my crappy Chevy ā€˜79 Chevy Malibu with itā€™ssagging headliner into Gilā€™s driveway and sucked in a deep breath. Carl pressedmy clit again so that my pussy worked up around nothing and I made a sound inmy throat. Then he chuckled softly and pulled his hand back. ā€œHere we are,ā€ Isaid.

ā€œHere we are,ā€ Carl echoed.

For whatever reason, my stomach rolledover nervously. My skin tingled and my heart felt a few sizes larger in mychest. Why was I so fucking nervous? Maybe because once I went in that house Iwas now in my home. A home without my mother. She had left. Left Gil and leftme. But at twenty-eight, should I care? Probably not, but I did.

ā€œIs that him?ā€ Carl asked.

I brought myself back from spacing outand looked at the small front porch. Gil caught my eye, gave me a half grin. Hecrushed out his cigarette in a coffee can I knew would be full of kitty litter,though my parents didnā€™t have a cat, and took the steps slowly.

ā€œThatā€™s him,ā€ I said. ā€œMy father. Sortof.ā€ But for all intents and purposes, Gil was the only dad Iā€˜d ever known.There when my real dad wasnā€™t. In fact, Marian had never truly copped to who myreal dad was, just that heā€™d left us. But it was Gil who had taught me toparallel park and to change a tire (not that I could still do that). It was Gilwho picked me up when Gary Grace
