The bus was quiet again that night\u2014peaceful in the way only a post-chaos tour bus could be. The engine hummed softly as it rolled through the outskirts of town, the stars high and bright above Ohio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jonah sat curled up in the back lounge, hoodie pulled over his head, earbuds in. He wasn\u2019t listening to music, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was playing a voicemail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cHey baby\u2026 it\u2019s Mama. I saw the newspaper. Your daddy saw it too\u2014he didn\u2019t even finish his coffee, he just stood there starin\u2019 at it like it was magic.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Her voice trembled, warm and proud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cWe always knew you had somethin\u2019 special in you, even when the pots and pans were dented and the neighbors complained about the noise. You gave us music when we didn\u2019t have much else, Jonah.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
He closed his eyes, pressing a hand to his mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cAnd honey\u2026 what you did for your friends? That\u2019s love. That\u2019s the good kind of rich. Keep making noise, baby. The good kind. We\u2019re behind you all the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
There was a pause. Then\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cAlso, if you get this before you leave Columbus, stop by the house\u2014I made those little peanut butter cookies you like. And tell that nice werewolf boy I said thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Jonah laughed, wiping his eyes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
