“No; I …” He studied me for a moment; then said; “Im going to visit David。”

“Uncle David?”

He walked toward his truck; saying; “Thats right。 I …I should be back around noon。”

“But Dad; why today? Its Sunday。”

“I know; sweetheart; but its a special Sunday。”

I turned off the spigot。 “Whys that?”

“Its his fortieth birthday。 I want to see him and deliver a gift;” he said as he held up the paper

I picked it up。 It wasnt a painting—it was much too light for that。 Plus; it made a strange;

muted rattling noise when I shook it。

I was just unrolling the top to peek inside when my father came back through the front door。 I

dropped the sack and straightened up; and when he

slid behind the wheel; I said; “Its okay with you; isnt it?”

He just looked at me; his hand on the key in the ignition。

“I … Im not ruining your day with him or anything; am I?”

He cranked the motor and said; “No; sweetheart。 Im glad youre ing。”

We didnt say much to each other on the drive over to Greenhaven。 He seemed to want to

look at the scenery and I; well; I had a lot of questions;
