<p><span>June 1996, my grandparents, my parents, my girlfriend and I spent a weekend in Laughlin. The guys spent one evening at a pay-per-view boxing event featuring Oscar De La Hoya against Julio Cesar Chavez. We had a fun time - it was the first time that I can think of as an adult spending time alone with my father and grandfather. My grandparents wanted to go to bed earlier than the rest of us (YEAH, BABY!) so my grandpa thought we should meet for breakfast at the hotel's all-you-can-eat restaurant before returning home in the morning. That sounded like a great plan at the time, but when the morning came, I just wanted to sleep. So my girlfriend, Laura went to meet everyone without me. When she returned from breakfast she told me that my grandpa was asking about me. I asked her what she meant – she didn't say anything specific yet she made a point to mention it as though he were very disappointed. Then she told me that he asked what time I went to bed, asked how many beers I drank the night before, asked if I was feeling alright, and even where and what I would eat before taking that long trip home. I was really stunned that he wondered so many things about myself - I don't even wonder half of that about myself - AND I'M AS SELF-CENTERED AS A PERSON CAN GET! According to Laura, that is. I figured that maybe I should - he didn't have to worry about me, I rarely ate breakfast anyways and I'd be fine. I dropped it from my mind at that point. </span></p><p> </p><p><span>We packed up and went to the lobby. My grandpa walked up to me and the first thing that he did was inform me that I missed breakfast. I assured him that I understood and i'd be fine for the next couple of hours, since it would be at least 2 hours before I would have any chance to eat. I'll never forget the way he looked at me and smiled, "Just let me know when you get hungry," he said with assurance. We then walked to the car, everyone piled in, and I landed next to my grandpa for the long drive home. My grandpa would smile at me every so often and I knew each time he couldn't wait until I got hungry so he could obviously spring his surprise on me - I wasn't used to seeing my grandpa behave so eager. Then, about half and hour before we were near anyplace that sold food, my grandpa asked rather than just smiled. "You hungry yet there, Pal?" This time I gave in - I couldn't ruin his opportunity to show me that he was thinking of me, plus the thought of bacon, or perhaps a muffin or danish was beginning to sound like a great idea.… "Yeah, I am pretty hungry now." I smile back at him this time, rather than the quizzical replies that he had been receiving from me since our newly developed bond was created. I then realized I shouldn't be such a cynical person. The thought of my grandpa worrying and caring about me so much that he even brought a stash of treats so that I wouldn't be hungry - now that's a heart-warming moment. As I sat there awaiting his presentation, I noticed his smile was even bigger than mine – in fact – it was HUGE! At that moment, I felt as though I must have won the lottery or something - YEAH, I'M READY FOR YOUR GIFT, LAY IT ON ME. Then came his offering: "We had eggs, and there was bacon- cooked just right - barely any fat on it… same with the sausage… I can still hear it sizzling on the plate. Mmmmm.... Oh, and all of those muffins,… orange juice - freshly squeezed… we were in heaven in there - tell him about the omelette bar Cheryl... HIS SMILE WAS SO SLY!!!</span></p><p><span> THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!! Everyone was laughing at me - EVEN ME! I don't recall the rest of the ride home - except maybe a glimse and a smile from each person every once in a while as they thought about the look on my face as I realized I had been set-up.</span></p><p> </p><p><span>THINKING BACK AT THIS MOMENT...</span></p><p> </p><p><span>Those smiles he was giving me to help sell the concern, they seemed so genuine - but how could they be??? I was tricked. Was he some kind of great actor? When I think back at those smiles now - I know he wasn't acting at all. Every one of them was a truly genuine smile. The smiles that pass as innocence and wholesomeness - two traits that I believe he is entitled to claim. Without these two characteristics, he wouldn't be able to sell such an act of deception. The other half of ingredients that you'd need is to be a very clever person with patience and true thoughtfulness - that's the only way this could have been pulled off. That was only one of many memories that he had provided me during his unobtrusive reign as head of the family. My grandpa has been a huge influence in my life. We never exchanged many words, but I always felt safe around him and he always brought a smile to my face. Thinking back to that day is a much richer gift than if he did pull out hands full of bacon, sausage, and muffins...</span></p><p> </p><p><span>THE END</span></p><p><span><br /></span></p><p>Erik Jurado</p>
