Shelby came home for the weekend to surprise his 3 month pregnant mother.Christmas had passed and he hadn't talked to his parents lately.
He walked through the front door and set his bags down,no one appeared to be home so he walked into the kitchen to grab a bite to eat.Well, he found his parents making out in the kitchen counter."Uh...hey guys."he said in a awkward tone.They jumped at the sound of his voice and pulled apart, Reba hopped down from the counter quickly.To try and not traumatize her son more she ran over to his and hugged him tightly."Oh Shelby I missed you!"she squealed."Missed you too mom."he could barely breath she was hugging him so tight.When Narvel finally pried her off of him Shelby was laughing."Didn't know you missed me that much."He said half joking.The other half of him was being serious, ever since they almost lost the baby Shelby had been almost invisible.He got the fact that it was their kid, but so was he.Shelby wasn't about to let his mother know how he felt so he changed the subject."So I know I just got here, but whatsoever we have to eat." "Shelby you eat more than I do!" Reba joked.I'm a growing boy ma."he replied smirking."Your already grown.Are you sure your not the one who is pregnant?" Narvel quipped in.'Here we go another baby reference.' Shelby thought to himself."You okay?" Reba asked.She must have notice his facial expression drop."Oh yea I'm fine.Just thinking about food..."he said walking to the fridge.
Shelby had made himself a sandwich and was offered help by Reba several times."Mom, I got it."Shelby said the last time she asked.Tears welled up in her eyes."Oh.mom I'm sorry." He thought that she was crying because of something that he said or did."No, it's just that you don't really need me anymore.Your a grown man." "Aw ma, I'll always be your mamas boy."he comforted while hugging her."We at least we'll have this baby."she said meaning it as a joke,but Shelby took it to heart.He broke,storming out of the house. "Shelby!"
