Then he ruined it by lifting his hand off her shoulder and set it atop her head, ruffling her, until just then, neatly combed hair.
“But don’t over do it, okay?” he grinned, “Remember, you’re their sister, not their mother. Leave the parental lectures to me.”
He laughed as Virginia shrieked and batted his arm off her head. It had taken her an hour to get her hair just right! Her father ignored Virginia’s irritated glare and headed towards the door. “I’m going to your uncle’s for a few days.” He said as he turned the knob. “I’ll take New York so you two don’t kill each other on your way out.”
Virginia did not deign to reply to that.
“Oh, and we’re holding off Michigan’s birthday party until the rest of the South come back.”
There it was again. “Father,” she began, but America continued to talk as if he had not heard her.
“We don’t want anybody to miss the celebration. See you later!”
With that, Virginia’s father strode down the hall and out of her sight. From the other room she could hear New York jabbering off now that he had America all to himself. Within seconds they were out the front door and on their way north.
Virginia did not move from her father’s study, trying as she was to understand her father’s mind. He was not stupid, even if she wasn’t his daughter and obligated to speak highly of him, she knew that while certainly rash and abrasive, America could exercise great mental capabilities at the drop of a hat. So what was his problem? Was he in denial? Talking as if the succession was just the South blowing off some steam?
We’re holding off Michigan’s birthday party until the rest of the South come back.
“Father,” Virginia said quietly, “Don’t understand? The rest of the South is not coming back.”
I am in love with you
