Wishes


A few days after the milk expedition, Dad called.


"Ever since the other day, all I've been hearing from your mother is 'buh-pup-buh, buh-pup-buh, buh-pup-buh'. Like a damn broken record. Even up here, I can hear her still."


"You're up in your room?"


"I had to get away from her. I can't take it anymore."


There was a pause. A companionable silence.


"Y'know, that's another reason I don't want her in the same hole. All I'll hear for eternity is bu-pup-buh, buh-pup-buh, buh-pup-buh."
