His Water

as reply to waiting on that man to come through

Marc Love sat at the dinner table. 

"You want some water? Or something?" Sammy said. Then he went to help his mom with something and they whispered some things back and forth. 

"We got some milk too or beer?"

"Waters fine." Marc replied. 

"Ice?" Sammy said. 

"Yeah, thats great. " Sammy went up to the sink and poured water making sure it ran a little to be cold. He then went to the fridge taking out a plastic tray from the top shelf he twisted and cubes popped out of their places. 

"Here you go." 

"Thank you sir." Marc replied. The ice creaked and cracked in his cup. And they stood there in silence. Then Sammy went back, filling his own cup and drinking big gulps. Then he went back to the sink refilling the used ice cups, finally placing it back in the freezer. 

His mom moved around around, then called him near. 

"Oh yeah." He said, and rushed to get plates, then silverware, and finally napkins. 

He carefully laid out the places. 

"No, no outside remember silly. " His mom said. 

"Don't forget the table cloth."

Marc Love looked at his watch. He was thinking he should leave in an hour. Just after dark. 

Or later might be better? He sipped his water.
