Let My Love Open the Door to Your Heart

I'm sitting on the couch watching straight Rhythm with Mike on my lap. Blake came and pats my head making me look at him.

"Can we talk?" He asks.

I get up and go to the kitchen with him.

"What up?" I ask.
"I know I told you that I stay for the whole month," He said.
"You want to go home?"
"I miss my girlfriend. Mike also doesn't like me around as much as he did before."
"I'm sorry."
"It's not your problem. I'm leaving on Monday. I see you at the wedding."
"Right."

He hugs me and I sigh and look at him.

"I'm just letting you know Ken is coming to the wedding," I said.
"Got it," He said.

I nod my head and walk over and sit down next to Mike.

"Uncle Ryan isn't in this?" Mike asks.
"Yeah but Marvin is,” I said.
"I like him."

I nod my head. He moves and sits on my lap again. Blake sits down on the other end of the couch. Once the races are over, I get Mike off and turn the computer off.

"You need to paint the wigs," Mike said.
"I need to go get the paint," I said.
"Let's go do that."
"Ok. Is Uncle Blake coming?"
"Yes,” Blake said.

I nod my head and we get our shoes on then go to the car. I drive to the store and get Mike out. I get him in a cart and make sure he's sitting like the doctor's want him to and go to the paint area.

"What kind of Paint do you want?" Blake asks looking at the paint.
"Paint for Wood," I said.
"Got it.”
“Colors are close to the real colors."
"Which is the hard part."

I nod my head and start gets some black and white to write the team names. Blake hands me a green.

"This can be for the Kawis," He said.

I grab it and nod my head.

"That red one for Honda," Mike said pointing.

I grab it and nod my head and grab an orange one with a yellow one.

"What other colors do we need?" I ask.
"Blue," Mike said.
"Yes we need the Yamahas."

I grab the blue one that is close the right blue and look at the paint thinking I got everything.

"Can you think of anything else Mike?" I ask.
"Nope," He said.
"Paint Brush?" Blake asks.

I nod my head and look and grab one that is thicker than the ones I have and brought them. We go to the house and Mike took me to the box.

"I need to make dinner," I said.
"Uncle Blake can do it."

I laugh at him and look at Blake.

"I make dinner," Blake said.
"Now you paint."

I nod my head and get a paper and draw up the lay out and label the teams.

"Kawasaki’s factory team should be black or Green?" I ask.
"250 should be green," Mike said.

I start painting the hauls with Mike's input. My phone rings. I went to grab it but see Mike did and he already answer it.

"Hello Uncle Ryan," He said.

I grab it form him and put it on speaker.

"Hey Ryan," I said.
"Hey what are you doing?" He asks.
"Painting the pit area," I said.
"Having fun?"
"So much fun."
"How's Blake?"
"He's cooking dinner and Mike is supervising me."

Ryan laughs and he starts talking to Mike. Mike hangs up when they are done talking. I look at the pit area seeing its finish and smile.

"Ok I do the names tomorrow if the colors look deep enough," I said.
"Ok mommy."

I get up and grab the paint brush and water that I dipped it in. I go to the kitchen. I stop when I hear a phone ringing. I turn around and see Mike still has my phone in his hand.

"Mike who are you calling?" I ask.

"Hi," Ken said.
"Hi Ken," Mike said.

I wash my hands fast then dry them running over to Mike. He smiles at me.

"Give me my phone," I said.
"Ken. Mommy wants to talk to you," Mike said.
"Ok," Ken said.

I grab it form Mike and turn it off of speaker.

"Hey," Ken said.
"Give me a minute?" I ask.
"Got it."

I put it in my pocket. I sit down and look at Mike.

"Mike you can't call people on my phone without asking," I said.
"Ok."

I kiss his forehead then smile at him.

"It's ok. Go bug Uncle Blake about taking so long for dinner," I said.
"Got it."

He runs to the kitchen. I get up and grab my phone and put it to my ear walking to the garage.

"Hey," I said.
"Take it you did not let him do that?" He asks.
"Yeah. He was talking to Ryan and just did it."
"What were you doing to not play close attention to him?"
"Washing my hands of the paint."
"What did you paint?"
"The Pits in the box thing Blake built."
"That's fun."
"Yeah. Blake is going home on Monday."
"Excited?"
"Yeah something happen at the races and now Blake and Mike don't get along."
"Taking his cookie?"
"Maybe. I really don't know. Getting that out of Mike is impossible."
"I want to see a picture of the pits."
"It's not done. I need to paint the team names after I see how the color is taking."
"That's cool. Adam enjoys going over there and eating cookies."
"He tries to tell Mike no but he can't stand for long. I need to go."
"Ok. Call me tonight?"
"Yeah video chat."
"Great bye."
"Bye."

I hang up and walk in the house and see Mike lining the paint on the coffee table.

"Mommy Uncle Blake said he's almost done," Mike said.
"Thanks."

I go to the kitchen and see Blake is messing on his phone.

"Pizza?" I ask.
"Yeah, it should be here soon."

I nod my head and sit down and start talking about what's going on with him at home.
