Who: Alma and Open.
Where: The Diner she works in, Park City Utah.
When: Last night. Any time after, say 9 P.M.
Warnings: None.

She'd been there a couple of hours. There wasn't a whole lot to what would now be her second job. She got people coffee mostly, refilled coffee and brought and took away the occasional plate. It was dull, slow and dull all over again but it was feeding her and Drew and keeping them in the apartment. So she wasn't going to complain. She took it with stride. Sighing as she saw someone sit out of the corner of her eye she finished totaling a bill and set it in front of it's client, walked over without looking up, dating a new bill.

"Hi, can I getcha somethin'?"

Alma was still a moment, she didn't expect any sort of apology. She'd been taught very young to never second guess Ennis, even after the divorce, it had been something her mother had been very adament about. After the moment seemed to fade she moved up away from him, wetting her lips as she sat again, ignoring that topic despite how badly it nagged her. "How's Jack?"

	"Jack's..." Ennis tilted his head. "Nothin' much changes, with Jack." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alma laughed softly at that. "Reckon I ought t'have known that." She sighed a little, checking around to see the place was pretty much empty aside from them. That was good. She wound her hands in her lap, chewing her lip. "Don't reckon I wanna be bringin; Mark by, if'n you've been inna swingin; mood." It was ligt, meant as a joke. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ennis shook his head. He sipped his coffee and sighed. "I ain't gonna take no sucker shots at 'im, Junior. Only if'n he makes me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Nah, he's lots different from Bobby." And that? Was an understatement. "He's real nervous t'meetchu." She sighed. "B'honest w'me, were y'ever in love with Mama?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ennis rubbed his hand over his face. "Th'honest truth? I still love yer mama, Junior. Ain't no typical kinda love. But I always loved her." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddysliljunior 2008-02-29 12:59 am UTC (link)
	Alma nodded, looking down at her nervous hands yet again. "Don't seem like we Del Mar's can have any kind of typical love." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I reckon not." Ennis sipped his coffee. "Reckon that's'a legacy y'ma and I left for you. Wonder if Jenny's faired any better?" It ws the first Ennis had mentioned his second daughter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alma sighed deeply, settling her head into her hands, watching thoughtfully out the window. "Jenny? Sh'wasn't concerned 'bout boys, Jenny got a real big scolarship, went t'college." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	quiet_cowboy 2008-02-29 02:39 am UTC (link)
	Ennis nodded. "Well, 's right good, I reckon." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Alma glanced at him and back at the window, sighing. "Yeah, sure is." her voice did everything to betray her resentment toward her sister. She hadn't made it into college on account of the essay she had to write for her application, they'd said her grammar wasn't up to par, so she'd worked hard into her marriage to Kurt, and could speak and write like any person who use 'proper' grammar could.

"Been thinkin' 'bout gin' m'self."

	"Goin'...back t'school? T'college?" Ennin leaned back in his seat as if the idea shocked him. "I think that's a mighty good idea, Junior." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddysliljunior 2008-03-01 02:58 am UTC (link)
	Alma just shrugged. "Aint likely I will. Got th'baby t'be takin' care of when I aint workin', maybe when he's older, and we got a good standin' inna place. Or if'n down th'road th'finances get split somehow." It wasn't an allusion to any plan to get married, but she wasn't opposed to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"An' y'know y'can always leave th'baby with me and with Jack. Hell, his daddy ought ta be showin' some responsibility." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddysliljunior 2008-03-01 03:46 am UTC (link)
	She shook her head. "Bobby aint a bad daddy, Pa. Bobby's good w'th'is boy. If there's somethin' he's good at, 's bein' a daddy." She sighed deeply. "Can't just dump him off w'th'you, sides, I'd still have t'find a way t'pay f'school." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Way I hear it, y'got a job. Ain't like there ain't nothin' f'Rudy t'do on th'ranch. He ain't no bother, Junior, y'know that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alma chortled. "I got two, I got this one an' workin' f'Carlos days. Th'money I make goes to rent an' groceries and m'tips here are goin' toward Drew's birthday present this year, 's comin' up." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	quiet_cowboy 2008-03-01 05:20 am UTC (link)
	I reckon I can help y'out, Junior, if'n y'need it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, Daddy, now aint a good time. It can wait a bit. (Reply to this) (Parent)
