Brian sat in a
recliner holding a little girl about two years old. Luckily, she was finally
sleeping. It had been a LONG day. The sounds of Boyz II Men were coming
from the stereo, but his mind wasn't on the music. He was wondering what
he was going tell Kevin when he got there. The doorbell rang.
She stirred a
little "Shhh..." he soothed as he stroked her hair. Brian laid her on the
couch and covered her with a comforter so she wouldn't get cold. He walked
over to the door and opened it.
"Hey Kev," he
greeted.
He looked tired,
"What the hell is so important Rok, that you had to see me three days before
a tour that couldn't wait?!"
"Could you be
a little quieter, you'll wake Anna." Brian asked him calmly.
"When did you
start calling Leighanne Anna?" Kevin looked confused.
"I didn't! As
for what I called you over for, she's sleeping on the sofa." he answered.
"What? You want
me to meet your new girl that you slept with or something?" Kevin was getting
annoyed.
"NO! Just come
in here!" he dragged his cousin into the living room. "THAT," he whispered
loudly, so not to wake her, "is what I called you over here!"
Kevin seemed to
observe her closely from a distance. Brian knew what he was probably thinking.
The girl had curly brown hair about his shade, and you couldn't really
see her face, for it was hidden in the curls. Kevin then turned towards
him.
"Please tell me
she isn't yours."
"Well...”
