Marcia Butler: You better stop meddling with our family affairs. None of you have the right to be interfering.
Mike Williams: What kind of family disowns their own blood because he’s gay? That is just wrong.
Marcia Butler: You have no respect. I pity you and your support for this sin.
Mike Williams: I pity your bigotry.
CHAPTER 18:
We got up and started walking since the sun was already low in the sky. Our dinner time was still two hours away. There was nothing left to do. Nicole refused my offers to go inside.
“Caleb, I don’t want to be indoors.”
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m so sick of it.”
“I can tell,” I said. She slapped me on the chest.
“It’s like every day the walls get closer and smaller.”
“That’s because they are getting smaller,” I said. “Do you not hear the construction that goes on during the night?”
“Since when did you become a comedian?” she asked.
“I’m not a comedian.”
“That explains why you’re not funny,” she said.
“I’m hurt,” I said, feigning a shocked expression.
“Yeah, no you’re not,” she said, rolling her eyes. “Hey look, it’s that guard. The one you were talking about.” We saw him walking in our general direction. “He looks a tiny bit smaller than the other guards.”
“Maybe he’s a trainee?”
“Oh, a future douchebag, I get it now,” she muttered.
“Maybe I should try talking to him again?”
“After you just said that you would wait a while?”
“I can give it a try,” I said. “He’s right there and there are no other guards in the area.”
“He could beat you to a pulp,” she warned. “That’s just because you were probably looking at him in a funny way.”
I shook my head. “I don’t think he’s the type.”
“If this guard is undercover, I don’t think he’ll blow his cover just to avoid hurting you.”
“Fine, just follow my lead,” I said. She moved in closer to me as we walked towards the guard. He stopped in his tracks when we got close enough. We stopped walking as well.
“What are you looking at?” the guard said. His voice sounded strained and raspy. It was like he was making a conscious effort to change his voice.
“Uh, nothing,” I said, looking away.
“Are you new here?” Nicole asked. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you here before. You don’t have a name on your uniform.”
“That’s none of your business.”
“But I know you from somewhere,” I said softly.
“No, you don’t,” he said harshly. “Would you like me to report you for harassing an employee in a homosexual manner?”
