“Please, my grandfather hasn’t stopped riding me since you’ve been gone,” Devin retorted. “Life’s been dull without you, brother.”
The conversation then turned to Curtis’ wife. “Speaking of, where’s your wife tonight?”
Devin answered with a dismissive wave, “We’re having a boys’ night. She’d only rain on parade.”
