GI Blues Song Chapter 28

Posted on | May 15, 2006 |

Dear Daylene, I am sorry to hear that you are leaving the club but you know it is probably for the best anyway. I don’t know but I am sure you can get some jobs singing commercials and all. Speaking of singing… I went to a USO show last night. It was great, it almost made me forget where I was. I am sure the baby is getting real big now. I know that he will be born when I come home I can’t wait to hold him.
How is my mother treating you? I hope she is being nice. I know sometimes she is rude but that is the way she is. I really can’t see you being a check girl at the Piggly-Wiggly, that is one picture I would love to see is you in your uniform. Haha. Okay well I am looking forward to your next letter.
Love Always, Jason

She smiles at this new letter. She gets Jess to take a picture of her in work uniform and she places the picture in the envelope with her new letter. “Only three more months, little one and you will be here and so will Daddy,” she tells her stomach. She sits down and writes him a return letter.

Dear Jason, Things are really good here. I talk to your mom once a week. Since you aren’t going to be here, she is coming to stay with me until I have the baby. I am kind of looking forward to it but I am not at the same time.Well at least she can help me out. But what I am glad is that me and Jess are coming pretty good friends. She is helping me out a lot.
I got my friend from New Orleans to take over my singing at the club. She’ll be here next week. She’s has some loose ends to finish up or something. So I only got a couple more weeks there. Hell some days I can’t even show up at the grocery store for work but some how I do anyway.
I got Jess to take a picture of me in my uniform since I will be long from the Piggly Wiggly when you come home. I am sure it will make you laugh a little.
Well I have a doctor’s appointment soon. I can’t wait until you are home. I love you so much.
Your baby’s mama
