βYes. Iβm looking at Bβs. Well, Mr. Schmidt,Iβm sorry to have bothered you. Iβll handle him on my end, and youdo what you have to on your end. Thank you, sir. Good-bye.β
I heard the receiver land in the cradle.Sounded like a bomb. Then, my dad said, βMargaret, takeBetty Ann and Johnny up to Powellβs Drug Store and get them a milkshake.β
Of course, my perfect little brother andsister giggled and hopped up the like coiled springs.
βBobby, go to your bedroom and wait for me,βDad said in his normal voice.
βYes, sir,β I mumbled, pushing from thefloor on rubber legs.
As I bring this escapade to an end, let mesay, I received one of the worst βbelt on the buttβ whippings Iβveever had. I was restricted for six weeks, no sock hops, no phoneprivileges, and lots of farm work and homework. I completed extracredits in class, studied hard, and got my grades up to Bβs for thefinal grading period. I did play summer baseball. We finished insecond place to the Creeds Indians. It was a great summer, and Ilearned a lot. One: Be honest. Two: My dad was a wise man. Iβllalways love him. And I miss him every day.
THIS GRADING PERIOD HAS ENDED.
