Jack had just graduated from high school after turning 19, and he was really looking forward to getting out on his own and living on campus far from home.
He still lived at home with his mom, Abby, who he loved very much, but his dad split shortly after his birth. He never heard from him again, not even a card on his birthday.
His mom wanted him to attend the local university. So, he could live at home with her while going to school, but Jack was really looking forward to campus life with all the girls and parties.
Of course, he wanted his mom happy. So, he told her he'd applied to the local university as she wanted, but he lied. He didn't want to risk his mom finding a letter of acceptance in the mail. It would be much harder to accept an offer from another university under those circumstances. So, he just didn't apply thinking "If she asks about it, I'll just tell her I didn't get in, and threw the letter away."
However, he applied to several out-of-state universities. Most were several hours drive from home, and he was happily accepted into a few of them.
As he went through the various offers, there was one that stood out. Since he was an excellent student, it came with a full tuition scholarship, but it didn't cover room and board.
He knew his mom wasn't rich. That's one of the reasons she wanted him to go to the local university which also came with the added advantage that she could postpone the empty-nest syndrome she'd been dreading.
However, the full tuition scholarship was very enticing financially. Since he apparently hadn't been accepted locally, this was the next best thing.
Then his mother realized something, and said "You know, if you go there, you can live with Granny. She's only about a 30-minute drive away from the school. That's an easy enough commute."
Jack thought "Shit!!! I forgot about Granny, or I wouldn't have applied there," and he said with little enthusiasm "Yeah, that would be great." All his dreams dashed in a single second.
His mom then said "Wonderful!!, Then it's settled, and, you know, since you'll be staying with granny, I'll have a free place to stay when I visit!"
Even though he loved his mom, Jack thought "Shit! Could this possibly get any worse?!"
Then his mom added "You could also give Granny a hand on her ranch. You know she's got a lot of work to do since Grandpa died, and she's no spring chicken anymore."
Then Jack thought "Bingo! It just got worse! Shit, I would've been better off going to school here!"
**** Jack Moves Into Granny's House
As registration approaches, Jack packed, and got ready to go to Grandma's house. All he lacked was a red riding hood.
After driving about 4 hours, he finally arrived. He pulled in the half-mile-long gravel driveway that leads to her house. Since there were no houses as far as the eye could see, the view was nice driving down her drive.
There's nobody around. No neighbors. No family... No one, but there stood granny waiting for him to arrive. She stood there in her typical attire... a huge dress that looked like a tent. She was about 5'5" tall, and had long gray hair she kept tied up in a bun, and she appeared to be surprisingly overweight considering the work she did.
All in all, she was just his granny, and looked every bit the part.
Once he got out of the car, she ran up, hugged him, and said "Hey, hon. I'm so glad to see you. You've grown so much." The last time they'd seen each other was a couple of years ago at Grandpa's funeral.
He hugged her back not actually getting his arms all the way around her, and said "Hi, Granny. I've missed you so much. It's been too long." As much as he wanted to be on campus, he still loved his Granny, and was happy to see her. Although, he wished it was just a simple visit.
Once the pleasantries were done, she led him in to her old farm house. It wasn't much on luxury. It was out too far for amenities. All she had was a land-line phone, and an old tv that only picked up the channels that still broadcast over the air.
Once inside and properly greeted, she helped him with his bags, and she told him she'd prepared the first room down the hall on the left. It was a large farm home, and her room was a couple of rooms down on the right.
His Granny, Molly, lived on a cattle ranch where she raised black angus beef cattle. It was originally a farm where she and Grandpa grew different vegetables depending on the time of year, but when Grandpa got sick about 3 years ago, they converted the fields to pasture for cattle. It was less work, and easier for him to manage with the help of his wife.
It was less work and stress on her since she didn't have to handle much. All that was required was to feed and water them, and keep them healthy which was mostly done by the veterinarian at her request. She also had to move them around from pasture to pasture, breed them with her bulls, let nature take its course, then eventually, they'd be sold.
The only downside is that you never get a day off. Not even Christmas. The animals always needed tending, and they come first.
Although, Jack loved his granny very much, he wasn't looking forward to helping her with the cattle. It just wasn't something that appealed to him. Fortunately, he, his mother and his Granny all agreed that his school work should come first.
**** The First Night.
The bathroom was down the hall on the right between his room and hers. Not even her master bedroom had a private bath. So, they had to take turns sharing something she wasn't used to doing. She hadn't had to share a bathroom since the death of her husband.
She also had to make several concessions since she'd be sharing a home for the first time in years. She had to remember to close the door to the one bathroom and her bedroom for her privacy and his comfort.
That was no problem for Jack since he was used to living with his mom. He was used to closing the door for his "personal" time.
The first night, she and Jack sat down on the couch to chat and catch up. There was no need in trying to find something to watch since she only got four channels.
They had a nice chat, and they both enjoyed catching up. They had fun remembering Jack's grandfather. They had lots of funny stories to tell, most of which they'd heard a hundred times, but they still enjoyed them.
After a few hours, granny suggested "We better get to bed since we're going to have a big day tomorrow," meaning he had lots to learn about the ranch. He hadn't been there since it was a farm.
Before Jack went to bed, he knew he had to go to the bathroom. When he got there, the door was open and his Granny was sitting on the toilet. She apologized, and said "It's had been a long time since I had to worry about anyone walking in on me."
It really didn't matter. She was still wearing her dress that looked like a tent, and, not only did it cover her, it also covered the toilet. It looked like she was just sitting floating in air.
**** First day. Time to Learn.
Granny was up when the cock crowed. She always headed to the kitchen to make breakfast which usually consisted of bacon, eggs from her chickens, toast, and coffee.
Jack woke to the smell of bacon and coffee. So, he quickly dressed, and headed to the kitchen for breakfast.
