Slacking
xxx.
“Mr. Strickland calls everyone a slacker,” George chuckled, collecting Marty outside the office after his parent-teacher conference with the principal. He pushed his glasses up his nose. “He thinks everyone is like that.”
Marty said nothing.
His dad was like that.
George had no ambition, no drive, no dreams. He just… existed. And he didn’t care enough to break the cycle. Meanwhile, the son in his shadow felt so trapped he was frantic for anything that meant he wouldn’t become his father.
Marty opened the Nova’s passenger door, brushing peanut brittle off the seat.
Maybe Strickland saw something he couldn’t.
