There were certain moments in life that you never forgot. One of those
moments was when your mother casually announced that she was
getting remarried barely more than three years after your father had
passed.
My silverware clattered to the plate after she made the announcement.
She looked around the table, beaming at my brothers and me like we were
supposed to be happy for her. While happy wasn’t an emotion I was overly
familiar with, I knew I sure as hell wasn’t feeling it right then.
“You’re what?” I asked, incredulity ringing clear as a bell from my tone.
“Why?”
My mother gave me a fond smile, the crow’s feet around her eyes deep
but not that bad yet. “Richard and I love each other, honey. Neither of us are
getting any younger and why wait, right?”
Why wait, indeed. Perhaps because you were married to my father for
thirty years and you’re still pretty young, but hey, what do I know?
My three younger brothers exchanged a look, their expressions
morphing from shocked, to unconvinced, to joyful in sixty seconds or less.
Finn was on his feet first, pushing his chair back and striding around the
table to throw his arms around the happy couple.
“Congratulations, you guys! This is awesome news, and yeah, why
wait?” He glanced at our youngest brother, who was hot on his heels as he
remained bent over with his arms around their shoulders. “Get a picture of
this, would you, Corbin? We need this moment captured for posterity.”
I frowned, but Corbin dutifully slid his phone out of his pocket and
snapped the requested picture before joining them. Embracing them in a
group hug, he raised his phone once more, grinning into the camera as he
took a quick selfie of them all together.
“Say cheese, people. Look alive! Come on, this is going on my socials
as a night to remember.”
Asher, brother number three, laughed as he got up to join them. “What
is it with you two? The world would keep turning if social media disappears
tomorrow. You should try to live in the moment.”
“As if you’d know,” Mom teased, lifting her arm a little higher to make
room for him in the hug. “You would all perish without those websites and
you know it. So let’s just accept that we’re living in the age of ‘pics or it
didn’t happen’ and hope you’ll never have to find out what will happen if it
all disappears overnight.”
“Look at Mom, knowing more about the real world than you, Ash,”
Finn joked as he finally straightened out of the hug. “Just make your peace
with it, man. Listen to your mother and accept the age we’re living in.”
I rolled my eyes, casting a glance at our oldest brother in the process.
Like me, Zachary wasn’t exactly leaping for joy. I loved our mother and I
knew he did too, but this was a damn bitter pill to swallow.
Trying to keep up appearances for her sake, I reached for my wine glass
and lifted it for a toast. “To Mom and Richard. May you be happy.”
