It’s the weekend! I hope you’re having a great one. 🙂
Here’s another snippet from my work in progress called “The Artist’s Mechanic.” Forgive any typos, etc.

My little brother complained that I was a fuddy-duddy at the ripe old age of thirty-five. I never dated, never did anything fun, as far as he was concerned. Only thing I did was work. Oh, and hound his ass about staying in school and cleaning up his damn, funky room. Had our parents been like that when they were still alive? It’d been so long ago, I barely remembered.
As I answered a cheeky text from the runt, who’d just gotten home from his summer job at the local fair, I heard the door to the classroom open. I looked up and saw the art teacher enter the room, even better-looking in person, and a smile that would make even the most hardened cynic melt.
That wasn’t me, though, nuh-uh. I was completely in control of my reactions and was only here to prove a point to my pain in the ass sibling.
Yup.

Love it! Great fun, even though you can’t help feeling for the guy forced to be mature and responsible before his time.
Indeed!
LOL methinks he protests too much. 😀 Great snippet, J.D.
Thank you. 🙂
Aww, his prickly denial is so adorable!
He has no idea what’s coming! 🙂
Hmmm… somehow I don’t quite believe him…
Me. either! 🙂
Just who is he trying to convince? LOL
Even he doesn’t know! 🙂
Yup…heheheh…sure! 😉
We’ll see how long that lasts! 😀
