Chapter 38


The rest of November ended quickly, as the dark clouds and cold winds of
December came rolling in. Dan's court hearing was scheduled for the
second Monday of the month. The District Attorney encouraged Rick to
attend, while discouraging Kyle's appearance. Rick agreed to come and
purposefully kept it from Kyle. The D.A. was clear that Dan wasn't going
to take a plea deal, which meant that Kyle would have to testify
eventually.


Rick was also given notice of Ronda's sentencing. It was scheduled for
the next day, and he wasn't certain he wanted to attend it. He hadn't
spoken to his soon-to-be ex-wife since the day he found out about Will
Parker. He brought Kyle and Charlie to the jail, but let them do all the
visiting, while he sat back, avoiding eye contact. The visits were mostly
for Charlie, anyway, since Rick and Kyle were pretty much done with her.


The Friday before Dan's hearing, Rick met with his attorney, Rebecca, to
finalize his divorce and Kyle's adoption paperwork. Rebecca had reviewed
and sought a consultation regarding Will's custody agreement, and she
couldn't find anything fishy about it. Once Ronda was sentenced, Rick
would be Kyle's legal father with full custody, while Will would have
visitation every other week, so long as he paid child support and helped
provide for Kyle with other expenses. Will would also pay all of Rick's
legal fees regarding Kyle's adoption, the divorce and custody
arrangements.


A nagging feeling kept gnawing at the back of his mind. Will's proposal
and his too-easy-going attitude kept rubbing him the wrong way. There was
just something slimy about Will he couldn't figure out.


Kyle and Ry sat together at lunch. Neither of Ry's parents had come for
him nor tried to contact Rick. Ry didn't know how to feel about it, so
depression had kicked in. Kyle pointed out that Ry's parents never really
seemed that involved in his life, anyway. "I mean, they spent all their
time in their room whenever I came over." Ry acknowledged the point, but
despite Kyle's attempts to point out the obvious, it only hurt Ry more to
realize the neglect.


"What's up?" Cody said in passing. Since the start of swimming season,
he had spent most of his time with the team. Kyle tried responding, but
Cody only moved on.


"You two break up?" Steve asked. Kyle had taken to running his vampire
game during lunch as a means to kill time during the crappy weather.


"I don't know, maybe," Kyle relented.


"I think my cousin is gay, if you're interested," Jamie said.


"Thanks, I think?"


"What makes you think your cousin is gay?" Ry asked.


"He dresses really nice and likes to go to clubs."


"I don't think that makes you gay," Donny said.


"Yeah, my mom likes to get dressed up and go dancing, and she's
homophobic as fuck," Danny said. Unfortunately, Mr. Nader walked by and
gave Danny detention for swearing.


Rick picked the boys up, since Kyle had his second visit with Will. They
drove back to the house, where Ry was to be dropped off. Ry was warned to
not make any more bets with Charlie, and Ry grumbled his agreement. Lydia
was in the house to make sure they boys behaved themselves.


"It's great to see you again, Kyle," Will said in his usual,
over-friendly demeanor. He shook Kyle's hand before taking a seat
opposite at Rebecca's conference table. "How have you been since we last
spoke?"


"Fine, I guess," Kyle said, a little off put by the man's jovial
attitude.


"Well, Fine is better than not, I suppose," Will said, maintaining his
smile.


The conversation was light. Will talked more than Kyle, who only gave
brief responses. He talked mostly about his side of the family,
especially his father and grandfather, who made their fortunes in the oil
industry. Will took his inheritance and went to college to study computer
science. It was in college that he met Ronda and they started dating.
"Your mother was gorgeous, with a passion that blazed like a wide fire.
If you ever thought she was a fighter now, I can tell you some stories
that would floor you." Kyle noted a glint in the man's eyes, then the
briefest moment of sadness.


"Did you love my mom?" Kyle asked.


"I loved your mother, very much...at least early on," Will replied.
"We were both very young, and I don't think we knew what love really was
until you were born. I wasn't the perfect husband, but I did try to be
the perfect father to you. One day, when you meet a girl you like, I'm
sure you might understand."


"I'm gay," Kyle said.


"I wouldn't have guessed," Will said.


"Is that a problem?" Kyle asked, with a slight attitude.


"Not at all," Will said, unbothered by Kyle's tone. "In fact, you have
an uncle who is also gay, an aunt who is a lesbian and a transgender
cousin. Despite the conservative history of our family, my generation
seems to have started a new trend of liberalism. I don't have any issues
with you be gay, Kyle. My only concerns are your happiness and
well-being. Besides, I'm not in any rush to be a grandfather, since I
haven't had a chance to be a father, so you being gay will only delay
things all that much longer, if you know what I mean."


Kyle wasn't sure if he was being mocked or not, so he let it go. He
thought that Will meant no harm, but somehow, he couldn't shake the
feeling that he was just insulted.


The topic changed to the video game system that Will gave Kyle. Will then
brought up that he had never really been into video games. He had
preferred playing tabletop roleplaying games, which instantly brightened
Kyle's mood. The rest of the visit was spent with the two discussing the
highlights of their experiences. Will promised to look for his old books
for the next visit.


As Kyle got ready to leave, Will asked Rick if the child support payment
was on time, which Rick affirmed, while checking his messages. There was
a frantic message from Lydia. Ry's mother had come to the house looking
for her son. Lydia said that the woman seemed to be on something. Lydia
told her that Ry wasn't there and to come back when Rick got home. Lydia
had Charlie and Ry hide in Kyle's room. Ry's mother was still out front
yelling her head off, and Terry was sitting with her. The message was
left only 5 minutes before, so he called her back.


"Are the boys safe?" Rick asked, desperation setting in. He could feel
Will's eyes on him. The last thing he needed was for Will to think that
his place wasn't safe for Kyle.


"They're shaken, especially Ry. That bitch is still freaking out. Do you
want me to call the cops?" Lydia asked. She sounded stressed and
desperate.


"No, not yet. I'm on my way," Rick said before hanging up.


"What's wrong?" Will asked, concerned.


"It's nothing," Rick said.


"It doesn't sound like nothing, Rick. Are Charlie and Ry okay? What's
going on?"


Rick sighed and told the room what was going on. "We're coming with
you," Rebecca said, telling Antonio to grab the camera.


"Here," Will said, handing Rick his keys and pushing buttons on his
phone.


"What for?" Rick asked.


"My car is a lot faster than your truck. I'm calling an officer friend
of mine who will give you an escort to your place. He owes me for a job I
did. Just get there as fast as you can."


Rick didn't have time to argue, so he left as fast as he could, leaving
Rebecca to bring Kyle. Will's car was a sports car, and it took him a few
minutes to adjust after having had his truck for several years. Within a
few minutes, a police car, sirens blaring and light flashing, zoomed in
front of him. Rick hoped it was Will's client as they sped through town.


The cop and Rick arrived to see Mrs. Doernbecher grab a large rock and
throw it at the living room window. Fortunately, she was too intoxicated
to do it properly and she fell along with the stone. Rick assumed she was
either very drunk or on meth. He had a few former employees who used the
drug and noticed similar twitches and spasms.


The cop called for backup and allowed Rick to run into the house. Terry
was in the living room with his bat and said that Lydia was in the boys.
Rick went to Kyle's room and found Lydia holding both boys, who were in
tears. Charlie rushed into his dad's arms, nearly taking them both to the
floor. Rick bent down, and Ry came running over as well. He kissed both
boys on their wet cheeks and tried to calm them down. Lydia explained
everything in more detail, but there wasn't really anything major that
wasn't in the message.


Antonio came in a few minutes later and said that Rebecca and Will were
outside. At first Rick was pissed that Will had come, but then remembered
that Rick took Will's car. Rick let the boys go and told them to stay in
the room. Lydia offered to stay with them as well, which Rick thanked her
for.


The scene outside was chaotic. Two more cop cars arrived. The police
officers had managed to tackle Ry's mother and cuff her. She was sitting
in the back seat of a cruiser still screaming and thrashing around. Mr.
Doernbecher was talking to one of the officers. He looked like he hadn't
bathed since Rick last saw him. Will was talking to the officer who
escorted Rick, while Rebecca was talking to the officer-in-charge. Rick
didn't know what to do, so he stood on the porch waiting for someone to
call him over.


A crowd of neighbors, mostly the elderly ones, started to gather around
the police line. Little, old, gossipy women always annoyed him, but there
was nothing he could do to stop them.


Detective Dunham arrived on the scene. Rick assumed that it was because
his address was flagged. Thoughts of moving the boys out of state crossed
his mind. The detective walked up to Rick and asked for a word inside.
She greeted Terry, then said, "Is Ryland Doernbecher here?"


"Yes," Rick said. "He's in Kyle's room."


Terry interjected, "My wife didn't want him going with that crazy
junky."


"I understand," Dunham said. She asked Rick to bring everyone out, so
she could speak to them. Rick came back carrying Charlie and holding Ry's
hand. Lydia moved swiftly to her husband, who held her tightly. Detective
Dunham took everyone's statements, and was very professional.
Towards the end of the interviews, Rebecca came into the house.


"Where's Kyle?" Rick asked quietly.


"He's with Antonio. He's shaken and worried about Ry, but he's okay,"
She said.


Rick introduced his lawyer to the detective. They exchanged business
cards and had a private conversation in the kitchen. About this time,
Will entered the house. Rick almost lost it, but remembered what was at
stake.


This is not good," Will said somberly. He looked at Ry and said, "I'm
sorry this is happening. I can't begin to imagine what you must be going
through."


"What do you want, Will?" Rick said.


"To help anyway I can, of course."


Rick handed Will his keys and said, "You can start by leaving."


"Yes, I can understand why," Will said. He turned to walk away, stopped
and turned back. In a low voice he said, "I know you don't trust me. I
wouldn't either, if I were you. However, this doesn't change the
arrangement. Clearly Ry's parents have issues that are unrelated to Kyle,
you and Charlie. If there's anything, and I mean ANYTHING, do not
hesitate to call me."


"Thanks," Rick said. He heard the sincerity in Will's voice, but
still....


Will made to leave a second time but came to an abrupt stop as he almost
collided with the officer-in-charge. "I need to speak with Detective
Dunham before we proceed."


"What is it, Sergeant?" Detective Dunham said, coming around the corner
from the dining room.


"We need the Doernbecher boy to come with us."


"What?" Rick asked. "Why?"


"His father is taking him home," the sergeant replied.


"Excuse me, Sergeant," Will said, "I'm William Parker, the boy's
attorney. I'm afraid I'm going to have to object." Rick nearly strained
his neck with how fast his head spun around. He watched as Will produced
a business card and handed it to the cop. "My client was the victim of
domestic, physical abuse at the hand of his father, and his mother is
clearly on something and needs to detox, before she can take custody of
young Ryland." Rick couldn't believe what he heard. How the fuck did he
know about Ry's situation?


The officer examined the card and said, "I'm gonna have to check this
out."


"By all means," Will said, returning to his cheerful state. "My state
bar number is on the card, and you can find the directory online or call
the 1-800 number."


The officer walked away, and Will turned to Rick and said, "I hope you
don't mind me staying a little bit longer."
