“Welcome aboard, Coach.”
I set my pen on the contract I’d just signed. “Glad to be
here.”
Kurt Howard, athletics director and my new boss,
stretched an arm across his desk.
As I shook his hand, I hoped like hell this hadn’t been a
mistake.
One year. I’d agreed to be the head football coach for the
Treasure State Wildcats for one year. If after this season I
realized Mission wasn’t the right place for Joey and me, then
we’d pack our bags and find somewhere new. As long as it
wasn’t Seattle, I was game for just about anywhere.
“How’d the move go?” Kurt asked as he stood, leading the
way out of his office.
“Not bad,” I lied. “Moving company made it easy.”
They’d packed everything from my house in Seattle and
loaded it onto a truck. While Joey and I had been on a plane
destined for Montana, they’d hauled our belongings and my
new Silverado over the interstate.
Getting to Montana had been relatively simple. The hard
part was going to be settling in now that we were here.
The moving crew had arrived one day after us to unload
the semi. Unload, but not unpack. That job was on me, which
meant my house was full of boxes and randomly placed pieces
of furniture.
This morning, I’d spent an hour searching for coffee cups.
Finding a single, white ceramic mug had required me to riffle
through five boxes full of kitchen shit I hadn’t used in years.
It was tempting to only unpack the necessities. Part of me
wondered if it would be smarter to stick with the essentials
only, at least until the season got underway. After some
practices and a game or two, I’d have a better idea if this could
become a long-term gig.
If not, well . . . less stuff to repack if I just kept the boxes.
“How’s your daughter?” Kurt asked. “Is she excited to be
in Montana?”
“Definitely,” I lied again, following him down the hallway
of the administrative section of the fieldhouse.
Joey didn’t want to be in Montana. On the flight out, she’d
refused to speak to me. She’d been sweet as pie to the flight
attendants, but other than the occasional glare, I might as well
have been a stranger in seat 2B.
She was only nine, but her mother had taught her how to
deliver one hell of a cold shoulder.
Joey’s room was the only one I’d fully unpacked—it
hadn’t scored me any points. Even though her things were
there, it wasn’t home. Not yet. We just needed time. Time on
our own. Time in the new house. Time in Mission.
