Let's pretend


Omaha felt he was definitely in a new chapter of his life. Still, being Ed's best man was the last thing he thought would be happening. Reluctantly, he took his place. Honestly, he had Sheena to thank for that. She reminded him what all Ed and Betty had done for them, from moving into the neighborhood and more.

Still, he wasn't so sure he was that excited about it, especially with thunderstorms lurking. But all went well and he got to see most of the folks on his block and then some.

Yet, he was hoping Taylor and his family might show up. But they didn't. Of course, Taylor was too busy to be at Omaha's wedding. Omaha tried his best not to be moody about it. But he hated to lose his old friend.

"You haven't lost him." Sheena reminded him that they still text each other. Taylor did call occasionally. But getting together seemed impossible this summer. Omaha felt he needed Taylor like family. After all, they'd been roommates, not that long ago.

As life is, it evolves when least expected.
