“Oh man, that’s great! You’re gonna be a dad! Shit, I’m gonna be an uncle!” Johnny said over his coffee.

“I know, man! I’m scared, though, if you want to know the truth.” Vince said.

“Whaddaya got to worry about? You two’re gonna make great parents. Remember when you babysat my sister’s kids? They loved you two!”

“Yeah, I know that. I’m worried about how I’m gonna pay for a kid working a shit job at an apartment complex.” Vince said.

“Give it time, bro, give it time. You’ve got plenty of time to worry about that. For now, just be happy that you’re finally having a kid!” Johnny said, smiling.

“Yeah, you’re right. Thanks, man.” Vince said, sounding relieved.

“You’re damn right I’m right! Mary, more coffee please!” Johnny yelled.

“Crazy bastard”, Vince said. “Hey, you think Jared could get me on some of those jobs he’s always doing?”

“S’worth a shot. Ask him tomorrow.” Johnny answered.

“I’ll do that.”
