GRANNY
Granny Price had worked at Mike’s Pub for a week and was getting used to coming home after three in the morning, especially on the Friday night shift. She’d done bouncer work before, and Mike’s place was typical. She’d broken up two fights and tossed out an obnoxious drunk who kept spilling his beer on people he didn’t know. It was another day at the office, only this weekend she got her first paycheck. She could finally give Angie and Chris rent money and not feel like a moocher. She was thankful to have the work, especially with her limited labor skills, but a vague inner torment had churned in her gut since she’d started the job, and tonight she finally figured out what the problem was. Because of her late-night hours, she rarely saw her new family, and she missed them.
