Summary
Buck frowns, knees relaxing, “Eds, do you not know what a gift means?”
“Yeah, dad, don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.” Christopher calls from inside the Jeep, extending a hand for the bag housing the donut, “I thank you very much for your gift, Buck.”
“See,” Buck turns to give Chris the donut, “Chris knows what a gift is.”
Eddie rolls his eyes, “Chris, you just read the Odyssey, you know that looking a gift horse in the mouth is exactly what you should do.”
If Eddie looked the proverbial gift-horse in the mouth he would probably see all of Buck’s ooey-gooey feelings disguised as Dunkin branded coffee and donuts. Buck does not want Eddie to look the gift horse in the mouth.
“Eddie,” Buck extends the holder, Eddie’s pecan vanilla latte closest to him, “take the latte.”
“I’m going to CashApp you the five dollars.” Eddie says it like a threat, taking the cup and a paper-wrapped straw.
(Or: Buck uses Dunkin coffee as a love language)
