Flip Flops

KC sat at the dining room table, elbows on the table with his chin propped in his hands as he watched Cassie arranging bluebells and long stemmed white roses in a crystal vase. “Why are you taking that old farmer flowers anyway? He’s always mean to me.”

 

Cassie glanced at KC and then shook her head. “You know why he’s mean to you. You snuck onto his land and fished in his pond without permission. On top of that, you put a toad on his poor little grandson when he came to tell you that you were on private property. It’s a wonder you didn’t get fined or put in jail. Farmer Sam’s wife is a patient of mine or you probably would’ve. Now, go get that book I bought to go with the flowers. I left it on the coffee table in the living room. Then, you can go with me to take these flowers to the hospital.”

 

“I am not going to the hospital to take flowers to Farmer Sam. I’m not a hypocrite.” KC stood up to go get the book. “Anyway, I have plans. Wayne promised to teach me how to make truffles this afternoon.”

 

“You are so going with me to the hospital. The flowers are for Farmer Sam’s wife anyway. If you don’t go, I’m going to tell Jo Ann. Remember the promise we made to her. We’re supposed to spend at least a couple of hours together on Saturday. I let you off last Saturday because you had an appointment to get your legs and pubes waxed. If you renege today, then you’ll be in trouble. Anyway, I know that Wayne has to work until 5 this afternoon. It’s barely two. Now, go get out of that denim skirt and pink silk halter. Put on something decent to wear to the hospital. They stare at your bright pink fingernails and lipstick anyway. No need in them gawking at your clothes.”

 

Throwing the book down on the table in front of Cassie, KC propped his hands on his hips and huffed before saying. “I am not changing clothes. Anyway, this is the only shirt I have that goes with my new pink flip flops. Also, the sequins on my halter match the ones on my flip flops. It’s not like the old farmer hasn’t seen me in a dress.”
