A Matter of Trust
“He was unsettled, and maybe the mystery exuding from the moon only added to that feeling. He didn’t know why he’d told Carrie everything he had about his childhood.
Those had been dark times, a past he never shared. The memory was a giant ripple that affected the bond between Ben and his brothers.
The fact was that they’d come through so much, and his parents were happy now. Those bad times were years past, and he believed his father felt bad for how he’d treated their mother and them. As Ben s...tared up at the sky, he tried to remember what had made their dad come back to them. He still remembered the day his dad had driven in with his suitcase and his mom had opened the front door. Nothing had been said as they watched each other, and whatever it was that passed between them in those moments had terrified him. But then his mother had taken a step back and let his father in. They never spoke about it to Ben or his brothers, though the boys had wondered, of course.
Maybe one day Ben could take his dad out and the two of them would sit with a couple of beers and talk.MoreLess
