Friday night was full moon, so aunt Cathy called up Zeke Wednesday evening. His girlfriend answered the phone. Cathy was polite but not friendly. When Zeke came to the phone she told him the still was ready to be emptied. Zeke said he'd get the boys together and they'd be over Early Friday to pour off the 'shine. They'd take the dogs and go coon hunting Friday night. Cathy allowed as that would be fine, that Old Duke and Jezebel needed a good hunt--they were starting to aggrevate the dickens out of the cat. Zeke said he'd bring some big catfish fillets if Cathy would fry them up. She heard his girlfriend snort in the background.

"Tell that stupid woman she ain't got a thing to be concerned about!" Cathy snapped at Zeke. "If I still wanted you I'd have you, but I don't."

"Aw Cathy, don't be sayin' that. You know you still got a soft place for me in that heart of yours."

This time it was Cathy who snorted. She ended the call and headed upstairs to get ready for Wednesday night choir practice.
