"For the past two weeks, every time I call Dad he says he's running out the door." "He does seem to be tight lipped about his activities." Ira and Michael were trying to figure out what was up with Jacob when the door bell rang. It was Aaron.
"What's up with your Grandfather these days?" ira prodded. Aaron started to smile and then offered, "What do you mean?" It was obvious that Aaron had turned into Jacob's accomplis. He also lost his poker face. "I'm not supposed to say anything."
Both Ira and Michael crossed their arms and gave Aaron the look. The same look that Rebecca had developed to an art form. "Okay, but don't say anything, okay?" Ira and Michael smiled and agreed. It appeared that Jacob and his next door neighbor Lois had been keeping company. How serious could it be, Jacob had not even mentioned it - then Ira started to smile, "my Dad is Dating?!?"
"Remember, you promised you wouldn't say anything," Aaron said nervously. And they wouldn't.
A couple of weeks later, Jacob and Lois stopped by after dinner. Ira hadn't seen his Dad that happy in years. Regardless of where it went, one thing was for sure, after taking such great care of Rebecca, he deserved some happiness. Both Ira and Michael were happy for him.
