Brewster - Plot & Excerpts

It wasn’t a good time. He had to watch Gene. His old man would be back soon. I’m sorry, man, he’d say.
    OK, I’d say.
    Behind him I’d see Gene sitting on the couch, his legs sticking straight out into the air.
    “So how’s the runnin’?”
    “Good.”
    “Yeah?”
    “Pretty good.”
    “I’d give you a beer but since my old man’s been suspended—”
    “I heard.”
    “Really?”
    “Karen told me.”
    He nodded. “It’s just I never know when he’ll be back.”
    “Everything OK?” I said. “You know.”
    “Listen, you been back to Jimmy’s?” he said quietly, like the porch could hear.
    Over his shoulder I could see Gene sitting on the couch holding a plate over his head, laughing.
