Me & Jack (2011)
“I was still mad about this afternoon. Prater and his stupid wristband. I should never have given it back to him after what he did. The phone rang in the other room, and I heard Dad pick it up. After a few seconds, he raised his voice and sounded angry. I wished people would leave him alone about the air force. My thoughts drifted back to Prater and his guns. He probably pictured himself as a gunslinger—or a cowboy with his horses.
I heard Dad put the phone down hard. He came into the living roo...m and he didn’t look happy.
“Joshua.” He snapped off the television and sat on the chair next to the couch. Leaning forward, he pressed his right fist into his other hand. “I just got off the phone with Bruce Prater.”
My back shot up ramrod straight.
“He says you threatened his son—”
“What?”
“You sicced the dog on Alan.”
“No way! He’s lying! He pulled a gun on me!” My whole body tightened. I rushed into the story about the fort and finding the wristband and going over there to confront Prater.MoreLess
