And Then Came Love Page #2

---

I even tried that online dating thing.

But frankly, anyone who's our age

who's still available...

-...there's a reason.

-But doesn't it kill you?.

Not knowing who the father is?.

I mean, these kids ain't no blank slates.

Well, I know what I need to know.

He's my son and I love him.

-What's that?.

-That's me and Daddy playing baseball.

-That's stupid.

-You're stupid.

Mommy says you don't got a daddy.

-I do got a daddy.

-Do not.

My daddy's taking me to the Yankees again.

He knows Matsui.

So?.

My daddy plays for the Yankees.

-Does not.

-Does so.

No way, because you stink at baseball.

You're a liar.

No, you're a liar

and my daddy is a Yankee.

Prove it.

HORATlO:

Ow!

-Linda, it's been a while.

LlNDA:
Hi.

Well, I just wanted to say

how inspired I have been by your work.

Some of the people you write about,

they really makes me wanna change my life.

-Wow. And how's that coming?.

-Well, what do you think?.

Of?.

Ah.

-That's quite a start.

LlNDA:
Yes.

Well, they were

my 40th birthday present.

Now, I could've gotten the new Z3.

But these get better mileage,

if you know what I mean.

[CELL PHONE RlNGlNG]

Hold on, sorry.

Hello.

Oh, uh--

Oh, no.

Oh, uh, I'll be there immediately.

No, it's okay. If there's

something wrong, I wanna get right on it.

Okay, thank you.

Uh, I'm sorry, ladies.

Something came up, I have to leave.

Just leave your books with your names.

I promise I will sign

each and every one of them.

Where are you rushing off to?.

You know my friend Joan.

-I'm so sorry to hear about his father.

-Excuse me?.

Well, your mother told me.

Tragic, on your honeymoon.

-I've gotta go, Ma.

-Give her Artie's number.

Mom, I'm happy the way things are,

plus I have a boyfriend.

[WHlSPERlNG] Get your priorities in order.

A child needs a father.

I got here as soon as I could.

What happened?.

Sit down, please, Miss Davidson. Relax.

JULlE:
Well?.

-Jake started a fight.

-With who?.

-With Horatio.

-ls he okay?.

-Jake's fine.

Horatio's a little bruised.

Naturally, his parents have been notified.

Luckily for you, they're very understanding.

-Especially given the situation.

-What situation?.

-This isn't the first time.

-Well, with Horatio picking on him--

He started it.

He told Horatio that his father

was one of the New York Yankees.

-Oh?.

-During the winter, it was the Knicks.

-Why is this the first I've heard of this?.

-Do you have a neurologist?.

What?. Wh--?.

Of course not. Why would l?.

These types of learning disabilities

run in the family.

Oh, come on.

One in three families

has a learning-disabled child.

He's an active 6-year-old.

Come on, none of them can sit still.

-Boys will be boys, right?.
