After a year and a half in a big city he had forgotten how muddy a country road could be. The mud made walking difficult, but he didn’t really mind. It was better to think about the mud than to think about his reason for coming back.Suddenly he had arrived.The old place didn’t change much. His eyes noticed every detail: the farmhouse that needed paint, the barn, even the old glider----a kind of swinging seat for outdoor use. How many times he and Travis had sat on the glider, swinging back and forth, imagining that it was an airplane! He and Travis had been much younger then.He looked out across the fields, expecting to see Travis working there. Then he remembered and looked away.After a pause, he went to the kitchen door. Footsteps came toward him. The door swung open. For a long moment they just stared at each other.“Hello, Papa.” He said. He stepped inside and his father shut the door.“The funeral was held three days ago.” There was no emotion in his father’s voice.“I know.” He looked around the room he and Travis had shared. There were things missing. Painfully he realized what they were. Travis’ old jacket was gone from the hook, and all his airplane books from the shelf. It was like walking into a wrong house.“Then why weren’t you here?” his father asked.?On the day of the funeral, he had gone to the airport and watched the big jet planes, losing himself in the roar of their engines. He sighed, “I don’t know why I wasn’t here.”His father was looking at him coldly. He glanced down at himself, then realized what his father must be thinking about his long hair and his old jeans.?“How’s Mum?” He asked, looking away.“Not well. She took it hard.”He wasn’t surprised. Travis had been her world. He looked for a place to hang his coat and saw there wasn’t any.Coming back had been a mistake. All his old wounds were opening again. 26.
