Hitting the Curve Read online

  The crack of the bat is one of the sweetest sounds in the world. Right up there with the punch of my fastball into the catcher’s mitt and Charity saying my name.

  I don’t bother looking, because I felt it in the reverberation of the bat in my hand. I begin to do my victory lap around the bases. When I glance over, Charity has her nose buried in her laptop, but there’s a smile on her face.

  When I get back to the dug-out, I grab my phone. Two new messages.

  — Hurry up. I need you for research.

  — PS. You can research me anywhere.

  That night, I threw my first shut out.

  It’s a night of a lot of firsts. For both of us.

  I wouldn’t have it any other way.
