the free gift page 5 by ric Gustafson


Kirby wondered how the young man knew his name and that he lived in California.
" Uncle Kirby".
He turned to see his four year old nephew smiling and holding a spoonful of mashed potatoes.
" Do you know what Tony the Tiger thinks of smashed potatoes?".
Kirby took a bite of sweet potatoes. " What does Tony the Tiger think of them?".
" Their Grreat".
Kirby smiled.
" So little brother" Mark asked as he put some butter on a dinner roll. " What actually happened with that Internet company you invested in?".
" Boys it's Thanksgiving" Helen quietly replied. She took a bite of cranberry sauce and then wiped her mouth with a napkin. " Kirby will tell us when he's ready".
Evelyn took a sip of water. " Kirby, what 's the name of your new employer?".
" Heaven's Gift Wrap".
" Gift wrap" Mark exclaimed with a loud snicker. " What kind of job is that?".
Helen shook her head. " Kirby, when do you start?".
" Tomorrow".
