Chapter 13
The next day I wake up to someone shaking me and of course my hand makes contact with them. Race: Hey, whatcha do dat for? Morgan: Oh sorry. I turn and look at Race, who's rubbing his cheek. Race: Man, you got a great right hook there. I get up and off the bunk and pull on my trousers. I'm in a long shirt, that's way too big for me. Morgan: So Race who are you gonna sell with? Race: I don't know, but do you want to sell together? Morgan: Sure, I mean Jack's probably sleeping off last night. I roll my eyes now. Race: Would you like to go to the races with me after we sell? Morgan: As long as we can get something to eat after we sell, sure. Race: They got great pretzels there and they don't cost too much. Morgan: Ok, just let me finish getting ready. Race: Sure, meet me in the lobby. Race leaves and I finish getting ready, it doesn't take long and I head downstairs to the lobby. Once I'm there I find Race and we leave with the others. I'm kind of quiet; I'm thinking about Jack and what happened last night when he came home drunk. Morgan: So how many times has Jack come home drunk? Race: Well not much, I don't know, it's been awhile since he did that, so I'm wondering what made him do it. Morgan: I don't know, but it's annoying. Race: I'll have to ask him, see if he'll talk to me about it. Morgan: Well I don't care, I mean it's his business and it's none of my business what he does. Race: True. We arrive at the D.O and get in line. I watch the others and then notice Oscar and Morris looking around and wonder if they are looking for Jack. Crutchy: Hey Lit'l Bit. Morgan: Hey Crutchy, how's your leg? Crutchy: Oh not too bad, it's not bothering me that much today at least. Morgan: Good, maybe I'll sell with you some time soon. Crutchy: I'd like that. The line moves and I'm next, so I get my papes. I get a 100 papes like normal and then sit down to scan the headlines and wait for race. A couple of times it took longer to get rid of them. I can't stand that, but sometimes I have a few left over and then it's ok, since they now have a rule that we get our money back if we can't sell them all. I'm scanning the headlines when Race sits down next to me and looks at his pape. Race: Man, This here says that a cow gave birth to a two headed calf in Nebraska, where's that? Morgan: How should I know! Finally we both finish and head to a selling spot; I'm quiet of course, because I'm thinking up good headlines to sell my papes. I go to the other side of street and start to sell. A few hours later we're almost done, my stomach is growling and I'm starving. Race: Ok I got a few left, what about you? Morgan: Four left. Race: Ok let's try to get rid of them and then we'll head to the racetrack and get those pretzels. Morgan: Ok. No such luck, we take the papes with us and head to the racetrack. We buy a pretzel from the corner guy and I almost devour mine in seconds. I buy my second one and then get some water and drink that up. Morgan: That was the best pretzel I ever had. Race finishes his up and drinks his water. Race: Ok, let's go look at the horses and bet on them. Morgan: Ok. We get to the races and Racetrack gets the sheet with the horse’s names and we look at them. Morgan: Can I pick one? Race: Sure, which one? Morgan: Fickle filly, number 7. Race: Ok, I'm picking Sidewinders even. We finish and then give the man our money, which I only bet a little bit of mine and we sit down to watch the race. Once the race starts I get excited and stand next to the fence shouting to my horse. Race just smiles at me and shakes his head. Morgan: What, this is fun. I continue to shout and scream and then I jump up and down when my horse wins. Announcer: Number 7 has won, fickle filly has won. I grab Race and hug him, I stop and smile. Morgan: Come on let's get my money. Race rolls his eyes and we go to collect our money. I hand the guy the piece of paper and he counts out the money, which is ten dollars. I hand Race five dollars. Race tries to hand it back. Race: No, it's yours. Morgan: It's ok Race. Race: No, keep it; you never know when you might need it. Morgan: Ok. I stick the money deep into my pocket and then smile. Morgan: You're right Race. We start to walk back to the L.H. Morgan: Maybe we should keep my winning to ourselves. Race: Only if you want to. Morgan: I'll think about it. Race smiles at me and then grabs my arm to stop me from walking. Race: Morgan. Morgan: What Race. Race: You're the first girl I ever took to the races. Morgan: Really? Race: Yeah and I just wanted to say that I had fun, do you think we could do it again anytime soon?While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
