"Are you sure this is the right place?" Mrs. Skidmore asked

"It's the right address," her husband replied, "but I can't believe this is the place they're raising a little boy."

All the meetings so far had in public places - and that was good, considering they'd have freaked out if they'd seen a shack covered in barbed wire built dangerously close to the edge of a sheer cliff. They cautiously walked towards the house (if you'd call it that), and knocked on the door lightly. The way the house creaked was as if it would fall down that instant. They watched as the door swung open, and a tall man with 'GARY' scribbled graffiti-style across his ripped t-shirt. he grunted and pointed at a hallway. The two parents stared at the ripped wallpaper and broken photos streaked across the wall. The slowly walked into what probably used to be a kitchen. Mikhail was seated in a chair that actually seemed intact, and beckoned to two more. Mrs. Skidmore carefully seated herself as her husband followed. Mr. Skidmore cleared his throat and began to speak. "About your decision ... we didn't quite understand."

"My choice was clear. I don't think it is proper for the boys to each other again. That is all."

"But..."

"This deal is non-negotiable, Mrs. Skidmore. Now if you will please leave?"

"How can you be so cruel?" Mr. Skidmore interjected. "They have nothing left of their lives except each other, and you're asking that we keep Jonah away from Jordan without a reason?"

"I'm under no legal obligation to do this. Now will you please leave or will I have to ask Gary to escort you?"

A look of pain traveled through their eyes, but the stood up and slowly backed out they'd almost walked out when something - or someone- ran into them.

"Aunt Linda, where are you going?" Jordan asked with innocent eyes.

Her gaze faltered as she bent down and kissed his forehead, then joined her husband outside.
