NICO LIFTED THE FRONT of the farm truck and I slid a stack of bricks
under each front tire. The only light we had was from the street lamps
above. It didn’t matter. I was a vampire. Nico was the first vampire, now a
Ghede Loa. We could see better in the dark, anyway.
“How long has it been since you changed the oil on this piece of crap?”
Nico asked.
I chuckled and shook my head. “This is Ellie’s truck. We share it.
Knowing Ellie, she probably hasn’t changed the oil once.”
Nico grunted as he slid on his back under the front of the truck. “Slide
me the oil pan.”
I took the wide aluminum pan that we’d bought at the auto store, along
with several pints of 10W-30 engine oil. I kicked the empty pan toward
Nico.
Nico didn’t have tools. He didn’t need them. He was strong enough to
unscrew the oil plug with his fingers. It took him a few minutes to get it
loose. I heard a plop as the first of the old oil hit the pan. “Damn. This shit
is as thick as crude oil. It’s a wonder this truck ran at all.”
“Ready for the new filter?”
Nico grunted. “Yeah. Toss it to me.”
I grabbed the box labeled Fram and reached under the truck. I set it in
Nico’s waiting hand. “I don’t know how you ladies got along without a man
in the house all this time.”
I huffed. “Excuse me?”
“I’m not saying women don’t know how to do this kind of thing.”
“That’s exactly what you were saying.”
“Fine. I shouldn’t have said it. I’m sorry. Still, would you have done this
at all if I weren’t here?”
“It’s not like there are many places you can get your oil changed after
dark.”
“My point exactly. It’s not because you’re a woman. You just weren’t
taught how to do this kind of thing.”
“We have Tommy. He’s a guy and he doesn’t know shit about cars.”
“That’s my point. What I meant to say before is that it’s a wonder you got
along in this house so long with no one who knew squat about fixing shit,
or doing basic maintenance. How long has it been since you changed the
furnace filter in the house?”
I gulped. “The furnace has a filter? Shit.”
Nico sighed as he slid back out from under the truck. “We’ll take care of
that next. It’s ready for fresh oil. You bought a funnel, right?”
I bit my lip. “I had Ellie buy this shit during the day. She brought it over.
I forgot to mention a funnel. I think we have one in the kitchen.”
Nico grabbed a pint of oil and twisted off the cap. “Never mind. I’m a
man. I know how to aim.”
