We stepped outside the gym with the two officers right
We stepped outside the gym with the two officers right
behind us.
When we stopped, the older one looked at Caleb.
“Son, what’s your name?”
Caleb glanced at me before answering. “Caleb.”
The officer looked at the guitar.
“And your dad was?”
Something in Caleb’s expression closed again.
“David.”
The officer’s face changed.
He looked at his partner. “I knew it.”
My heart started pounding.
“You knew my husband?” I asked.
The officer removed his cap.
“I’m Officer Marcus. This is Officer Alvarez. We knew David.”
“From where?”
“Our local youth center.”
Caleb looked up. “My dad went there?”
Marcus
almost laughed. “Went there? Your dad practically lived there some Thursday nights.”
I honestly thought he had the wrong person.
David had worked in IT.
He managed networks for a regional insurance company.
I knew he occasionally volunteered, but I had assumed it was mostly technical help.
