I checked my planner, and realized Herschel's birthday was just three days away.
It didn't feel right to burden him with heavy news on his special day, so I decided to deliver my gift early. That way, I could skip the festivities altogether without feeling guilty.
But before I could act on my plan, Dustin showed up out of the blue.
I hadn't seen him since we left the amusement park, and I almost didn't recognize him at first glance.
"Guess I'm a bit of a coal miner now, huh?" Dustin joked, referring to his disheveled appearance.
His comment made me think of Ernest, and I couldn't help but smile. "Your mom would have a fit if she saw you like this."
"Nah, she thinks I look more rugged this way," Dustin said, trying to lighten the mood.
I bit my lip, agreeing. "Definitely adds to your manly charm."
Dustin rubbed his face, "I thought so too."
Despite his efforts to keep things light, I found myself at a loss for words.
Remembering my intention to visit Herschel, I asked, "How are your folks doing?"
"They miss you," Dustin's words tugged at my heartstrings.
I used to visit the Wagners every day after work, but since moving out, I hadn't been back once.
"I was planning on dropping by today," I paused, "to talk to your dad about something."
"Today isn't about persuasion; even if it gets me in trouble."
His words puzzled me until he continued, "I know why you left, even giving up on the amusement park. How could I ask you to return?"
Dustin smiled. "Besides, I know you too well. You wouldn't come back just because I asked, so why bother?"
He was right. My bond with Dustin had always been stronger than the one I shared with Conrad. Conrad was kind but enjoyed scaring me with pranks, while Dustin never did. He was always protective, much like a real brother.
"So, Herschel is okay with Conrad's antics?" I asked, referring to Dustin's earlier mention of Herschel's awareness of Conrad's actions.
"No, Dad gave him a piece of his mind and warned him about stepping out of line again," Dustin assured me, and I believed him.
