Waiting for results is an unpleasant job. I've submitted the results of the account check I've submitted to Thomas. But they still need time to decide everything.
I returned to New Jersey for Thanksgivings days. Fulfilling my Aunt's kind hearted expectations.
At USA Thanksgiving, it falls on the 4th Thursday of every week in November, and of course that means a long holiday. Holidays are valid from Wednesday to the end of the week. Flights are busy and at their peak, everyone wants to get home as soon as possible.
Luckily I had a place back when my parents were gone. That's what I tell myself every thanksgivings. I flew back to the west coast from the east coast of the USA.
Aunt has two children. Both men and I became a woman. One is married and has one son. One year younger than me and not married. Sometimes I feel like she thinks I'm her daughter. Having an aunt like her is what keeps you going.
Aunt smiled broadly as I knocked on her door.
"Finally you're here, what's your flight delay baby." He hugged me warmly.
"Ah Aunty, that's normal in a season like this. Jonas and Ben are here?"
"Already, they're working in NY both, so they're back from last night."
"I tried to get back last night, too, but I couldn't get the last flight ticket."
"What matters is that you've arrived."
I said hello to Uncle and chatted with him for a while. Before rejoining chat with Aunt.
"Auntie you're shopping for tomorrow."
"Of course, my fridge is already full of food supplies and materials." This dear aunt is good at cooking, all the things I learned how to prepare food from her.
"I haven't been with you for a long time."
"Yes, Sunday I have to go back."
"Ohh yeah you remember Robert. Our neighbors are two houses from here, who are infatuated with you when you're high school."
"Yes, what's wrong with him."
"He asked you. He might want to see you later." I grimaced at Auntie. "He's got a Ferrari baby, it seems he's been successful in his efforts."
If in thought I've seen too much Ferrari in LA, until I think it's kind of a mandatory car in LA, surely the sales very much get a commission.
"Perhaps Aunt's seizure, bought at a bargain price." I laughed at the possibility.
"You can't think a little positive about other arrogant girls. He must be pretty good, even if it's a confiscation it still costs quite a bit."
"What can you do for Auntie, my job is to find fault with others. I can scrape anything if you sit in front of me. Maybe he didn't even realize I was scraping him.
"Sit down in front of her and date her."
"It's no use dating him, I don't like Ferraris anyway, expensive cars are noisy." Aunt folded her hands with her face slurred on me. I'm laughing now. Her life goal now might be to have me date and marry only. So I stop looking for trouble.
"Alright, later if he comes again I won't scrape him okay. I'm just gonna ask where the Ferraris are from. Don't be her fencer."
"Nephew's too smart, I'm sorry I let you go to psychology school." I'm laughing now. I grabbed him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Dear aunt, I brought you a present you want to see."
"You always bribe me with gifts. You sly nephew. What are you buying now?" He was instantly distracted the moment I called the gift. My aunt is weak in heart.
