But what little disappointment he felt was eclipsed by the anger towards his mother for thinking to fire anyone that worked for him. “ Enough, I’ve listened to you quite enough. My personal life is no longer your concern and is not up for any discussion and I am happy that my brother finally found someone to share his life with. You had absolutely no right to fire anyone that I employ and first thing tomorrow I plan on asking her to return,” hoping his mother would quit while he still had some control of his temper. Chris ’s father started to clap saying “Bravo, it’s about time my sons grew some balls and started taking charge of their personal lives; let’s go have a drink honoring this festive occasion.” He watched as his mother opened her mouth, but before she could get a word out his father cut her off. “Not another word from you, I suggest you shut your mouth before you alienate both of our sons.” Grabbing him around the shoulders and hurriedly walking from the room he whispered, “Let’s hurry and get the hell out of here before the shock wears off and she gains her second wind. He laughed astounded by the fact his father agreed with him and that they left his mother standing speechless, he thought there’s always a first for everything.
