Brenda and Ella watched Paul Gene practically
lifting Seth up.
“Paw I’ll be fine now really because we have work to do”. Paul Gene winked at his youngest boy
showing strength. Then asking, “You sure about working at the bar tonight?”
Standing now Seth replied, “Yeah paw”.
    Paul Gene smiled and he and Seth walked out the back kitchen door, Brenda stood by the screen
door and could see her husband really talking to Seth, as he even put his arm around him.
Brenda smiled holding her locket.
Walking down the driveway, “Do not be long Brenda it’s a Friday night”, yelled Paul Gene.
“We will be there just pipe down old man”.
    Ella actually laughed out, as she was drying dishes.
“Heck don’t have a cow paw, because I think y’all can handle it”.
Ella laughed harder, “Lord let me catch my breath here after Seth took it away”, said Brenda
patting her chest.
    Smiling, “Brenda I think you two are so cool”, said Ella.
Waving her hand, “Oh not that old buzzard”, remarked Brenda smiling.
“Is it okay to ask you something”?
“Sure sugar anything”.
Ella asked, “Paul Gene’s older isn’t he?”
“Oh yes many years older than me doll”.
“Really”, replied, Ella excitedly with a surprised look upon her face, Brenda added, “Over twenty
years older”.
“Wow”, said Ella and thought like her feelings about Saul.
    Ella also thought, Brenda was very pretty and cool she was full-blooded Cherokee Indian.
Brenda wore tight blue jeans with flannel shirts it seemed always. She even wore the same black
steel toe boots her four boys did and sometimes will wear Indian Moccasins.
Brenda looked tough in a way thought Ella, she was medium built, probably 125 pounds or 130,
the most and looked good for having four sons.
Young also and a lot like her one boy, Shane, as they resembled a great deal, he was the only one
who looked almost like her out of the boys.
Ella genuinely liked her and they still talked finishing cleaning the kitchen then Brenda said,
“Well Ella come on, I told you it was all right, besides you’re not drinking or I would kill you”.
“Yes I know the Wiley rule”, smiling.
    Brenda winked at her and they went over to the bar as it was packed, Ella had a funny feeling
about those phone calls.
Where is her friend Dana also? Did something happen between her and Seth Wiley?
Ella had the best time again and as she became the new dishwasher, she and Brenda become like
mother and daughter.
A few weeks pass.
     
Ella had still not heard from her friend Dana and one day decided to call at Dana’s place.
When Dana’s father answered and told her that Dana had to leave town. Ella was shocked and
wondered why?
    Therefore, Ella just let it go, as she had no choice, she also had new friends and Brenda was very
fond of her too.
In addition, glad to have a girl around the house.
The crank calls even stopped and Brenda wondered though if maybe the girl did hurt herself.
Seth was doing better and forgotten about the call.
Chapter 4.
     
Those few weeks seem to fly by and Ella for the first time in her life felt like she had a family that
was around.
    Even though owning a bar they were such decent people not as her friend had told her for
owning a bar. Ella really cared for them all and they felt the same, as she became a part of the
Wiley clan. She even played basketball with Seth, Sebastian and Shane, as they paired up on
teams.
It was Ella and Seth then Shane with Sebastian.
Sitting on the back porch watching the game Paul Gene and Brenda smile at Ella having so
much fun, as she even did a cartwheel after making a winning shot.
     
The boys all watched her smirking, as Brenda actually whistled very loudly and they all
cracked up laughing.
    Brenda told Paul Gene, “You know look at Seth and Ella, they make a cute couple”.
Rocking on the wooden gliding chair Paul Gene gave a big grin carving a big piece of wood.
Brenda sitting on the wooden bench asked, “I know that look,
