Journal Of A Gay Teen : Day 10

11-6-08 “Journal # 75”

I’ve gone a while without writing in here, but I should really tell what happened. Well when Ricky’s father tried to get them to release them to him, my mom flew down to the hospital and nearly kicked his drunk ass off the radar. When your mom get’s into a fist fight with a big guy like him and she’s winning and it takes 4 security guys to pull her off, yea i’ll look at her differently. Well the judge released custody of Ricky to my mother after they proved that Ricky was beaten by his father repeatedly over the years, after his mother died.
“Now look boys, I don’t want any hanky panky, clear?” mom said on the way home.
“Yea.” Me and Ricky said.
We got home and my brother who is only one year younger than me, was home early from school.
“Why are you home so early?” I asked.
“Clutzy Debbi accidently set the chem lab on fire, so they released the school early.” he said so calmly.
“Debbie you clutz.” I said to myself.
I walked upstairs to check on Ricky and was shocked.
