Love at the Fair

Something has to give

Blake

Watching her hair swish past her butt as she walked down the midway to start her job for the day just made me happy to see her in her element to see her working to see her happy.

I gather my wits about me and headed towards the generator trucks get them started so that the show could begin in an hour I want to do a thorough walk-through of all the rides before I start today I wanna make sure everything is top knot shape while the inspectors are here. Inspection for Indiana that we have for the year and of course I’m here alone to do it without my dad he always made sure he’s present for these but this is the first year I’ve done it by myself. Tony is here of course she always helps me with these little things but this year we agreed that I would do this by myself and she would just be here in case there was a stumble in the process.

I got everything completed that I wanted to do and I started the music on the tilt a whirl and the blaring sound meant it was time for the show to begin I enjoy this part of the work just watching the people come and enjoy the show and the food in the sounds and smells and the laughter I kept myself busy all night between breaks and checking things and having my employees check things as the night wore on I just felt like I was in control for once of the show.

Everything went off without a hitch so confident tonight and we actually broke completely even from fuel to supplies on the first night and that’s so rare. Tony came to me with the final numbers

“for the first time baby boy we actually did it we actually beat your dad in numbers for the first time ever I can’t believe it he is going to be so irritated by the time we get back to him but it shows that you got this bud”

I wasn’t sure how to respond

“that’s that’s amazing “ I had a little jump in my step tonight as I walk to find my girl she was cleaning of course that’s what she does whenever she’s in a frenzy or can’t think straight she cleans it’s one of the things I’m starting to enjoy about her. I’m perfectly content with just conversations with her but watching her work ethic is something I really really love about her and hearing myself say love in context to her made me feel a rush of emotions can I say I love her already or is it too soon?

I’ve know her a month the more I learn about her the more things I find I enjoy about her and it’s crazy to me because when I first met her she annoyed the hell out of me and I can’t explain why and now sitting back looking at the day she arrived she looked sad but happy and now all I see is a happy healthy woman finding herself.

With absolute truth I am telling her I love her today and I don’t care if she doesn’t feel the same way right now but I definitely have a fantastic connection with her and she has become my peace the thing I desperately wanted in my life.
