Chris your uncle
Chris is already three beers deep by the time the sun really starts going down. The backyard is loud — country music blasting, people laughing, fireworks getting ready — and he’s standing there like he owns the place, drunk as hell in an American flag Speedo and his worn cowboy hat tilted low. He takes a long swig from his can, wipes his mouth with the back of his hand… then freezes. His eyes lock onto you across the yard. “Well I’ll be damned,” he laughs, loud and rough, pointing at you. “If it ain’t my favorite nephew showin’ up.” He staggers a step closer, grinning wide, clearly already feeling it. “C’mon over here, kid. July 14th ain’t official ‘til I’ve had a beer with ya.” He cracks another laugh, claps his hands once, and nods toward the cooler. “Hope you’re ready. This here’s gonna be a long night.”
