"You just couldn't leave well enough alone could you?" His dad asks from behind him. "What do you mean?" Caleb asks getting up and facing his father. "That's the reason you went to Atlanta wasn't it?" "What are you talking about dad?" "You know exactly what I'm talking about son. I got a call from your uncle, now I don't care what state he's in but as long as he's still breathing I need you to return him to your uncle." He said in a stern tone.
"Why are all of you still trying to protect that piece of trash? He tried to rape Janice in our home and you're all still trying to protect him?" Caleb asks angrily. "He's not the one we're trying to protect son, now do as I say." His father said turning to leave.
"And if I don't?" Caleb asks in a low tone which stops his father in his tracks. His father turns slowly and fixed him with an ice-cold glare. Caleb took a step back and grabs his phone from his pocket. "I'm making the call now." He said in a nervous tone. Without saying anything his father turns on his heels and walks out the door and nod a greeting at Samson who was on his way in.
"Wow, you actually fear your father?" Samson said with a mischievous grin on his face. "But why it's not like he's going to knock your lights out or beat you black and blue with a leather belt." Samson chuckles. "He may not do that now but when I was twenty years old I made the grave mistake of disobeying my father.
He knocks me out with one punch, when I woke up I was on a plane on my way to my grandfather's boot camp in India. I was on lockdown for three weeks, three weeks man, no contact with the outside world, no phone, no women, and worse of all no sex, for three weeks! Ain't no way in hell will I ever make that mistake again." Caleb said shaking his head.
"So you're going to return him then?" "Already done." 'You do know that you were the one he's trying to protect, right?" Samson asks. "You sure about that?" Caleb snorts. "Seriously dude, do not make me hurt you, have it not accrued to you that you could get in serious trouble going after people like this?" Samson asks.
"Yeah but I'm careful besides....." "Besides nothing," Samson said cutting him off. "He's your father, he's always going to worry about you. The verse I have for you right now is; hey don't you roll your eyes at me. The verse is Proverbs 20-vs 22 Don't take it on yourself to repay a wrong. Trust the Lord and he'll make it right."Samson said turning to leave. "Alright, fine I get it, o holy one, so um...base on that little foreplay on the plane, can I go ahead and say that things are better between you and the wife?" Caleb asks.
"Mmm-hmm," Samson said nodding his head and biting his lips. "Yeah, that good?" "Oh hell yes, haven't been this good in a long time and I'm loving every minute of it." Samson said with a bright smile." "Alrighty then, I'm happy for you, maybe you should go away alone more often. Now let's get back to the baby shower, shall we."
"Oh no, I'm not going back in that room with all those drooling women," Samson said shaking his head. "Why not? I for one love getting them all hot and bothered." Caleb said grabbing the front of his pants. "But I do not, but don't let me stop you, go ahead I'll be right in," Samson said making a u-turn to the kitchen instead.
"I'm on to you little lady." He said over Mrs. Melissa's shoulder. "Oh Samson, hi, how're you?" She asks with a bright smile. "Oh, I'm good." "And how're things at home?" "Great, I'm hoping they stay that way for a long time." "I'll pray that they do." She said taking up a tray of muffins and turning to leave the kitchen but he took the tray from her and places it on the counter.
"Before you go, do you know what this is?" He asks holding up a wad of cash wrapped with an elastic band. "That's money Samson, you know that little thing we used to buy food and pay bills and all that, now I should really get back, they must be wondering what's taking so long." She chuckles stretching to take up the tray but he places his hand on hers to stop her.
