Chapter 93

“What made you choose Myrtle Beach?”

“It kind of chose us. We were just heading north. You remember that heap I used to drive?”

“Well, Myrtle Beach is where the coolest thing on four wheelsgave up the ghost. By that time, we were flat broke, so there we were, with not even a high school diploma and no chance of a job.”

“And I was pregnant.”

“Pregnant? I’ve got nieces and nephews?”

“Four of ‘em, and except for the oldest, they all have their momma’s green eyes.”
