The Detiveaux Family

The Elevator

Boudreaux and his son went to the big City for the first time. They were walking down the street and looking in the windows of the big buildings. “Tee” Boudreaux spotted something that caught his eye and ran into a building. Boudreaux followed him. There they stood in front of a shiny metal door that was cut into a wall of black marble. A chubby, elderly, gray haired lady walked up and pushed a button on the wall next to the door. The door opened and she walked into the little room behind the shiny door. The door closed and the numbers above the door counted up and then down again. The shiny doors opened and a beautiful, well built, young lady walked out. “Tee” Boudreaux said, "What kind of machine is dat, Paw?" Paw replied, "I don't know boy but go git your momma."
