My Brother's Best Friend
"Watched some football and hung out."
Yeah, at his secret restaurant.
I smile, but it doesn't reach my eyes.
"Where is Cade?" he asks, buttoning his uniform.
"In the back," I say, turning on the computer. "He's all better, finally got his cast off."
Johnny nods, still working his buttons. Pursing my lips, I continue to scroll over appointments, and say, "I wish they would have found the thugs that did that to him. Scumbags."
Johnny finishes his shirt, and gives me a smile. "Yeah, he didn't deserve that."
