MILES
I have never seen so many men lined up and drooling
over one woman before.
“What are you watching?” I blink away from the
screen to the three women glued to the reality TV
show. My sister, Coco, my new sister-in-law, Annie, and my
brother Levi’s fiancé, Meredith. They all sit, watching,
laughing, and not hearing a word I’ve said.
I’m not sure why the show even caught my eye. It’s far
from my thing. But I promised my niece, Alice, painting
lessons for her birthday. That was a couple weeks ago.
Lulabelle—her younger sister—turns one this month, and
Alice has reminded me daily that I cannot give Lula a present
when I haven’t truly given her one yet.
“Lane Jonas is gonna get a husband,
” eight-year-old
Alice says beside me.
“Lane who?”
“You know, from The Judys? They sing that song that
Uncle Levi likes to hum. I think it’s called “A Way Out,
” but
he always says the wrong words, so now he just hums. Annie
loves her and Uncle Levi isn’t sure he likes having that in
common with Annie.” Alice’s eyes are glued to the screen
where four men stand around one woman—they’re all
singing to her. Each belting more dramatically than the last.
On national TV. Yikes. My stomach turns a little with the
scene.
“I’m rooting for Broc,
” Alice says, plopping down onto a
kitchen chair. She makes sure her view is directed toward the
show, though she’s looking at me now. She waves a
paintbrush in front of my face as I can’t seem to look away
from the train wreck happening on the TV screen. “Are you
listening to me?”
“Is this appropriate for you?” I wag a finger in the
direction of the very PG-13 TV show in view just feet away.
“I just turned eight, Uncle Miles. I’m practically a grownup now. I know all about kissing and paying bills.”
I lift my brows. “Right.”
“Did you bring the goods, man?”
I break away from the large flat screen on my sister’s
living room wall. This great room has us together and
separated all at once. I pull two bags of king-sized M&Ms
from my backpack. “This or… this?” I ask, pulling out a
bottle of craft paint next.
“Yes!” Alice pumps her little fist and snatches the bags of
candy from me.
“Only one bag up during our lesson. Got it?”
“Got it. I am a sophisticated lady, Uncle Miles. I know
how to savor my M&Ms.” Her blonde head pops up and she
holds one finger in the air. “In fact, I have the perfect fancy
bowl for these M&Ms. Wait here!” She scrambles out of her
chair and hurries off down the hall toward her bedroom.
I cross over the carpet threshold and into the living room,
my eyes super-glued to the TV. It’s flashing the title:
CELEBRITY LIFE
CELEBRITY WIFE
“Is this what you do on Thursday nights?”
Meredith turns her head, seeing me for the first time,
though I’ve been here for ten minutes. Her lips fold in on one
another as if she’s been caught doing something wrong.
“It is,
