My Story III

Now that the formalities are out of the way, lets continue.

I forgot to add that Anthony's mother watched him right after graduation when my girlfriend, my best friend from Michigan (where I grew up), and I went to Las Vegas after graduation. Just wanted to mention that to reiterate the fact that she had watched him recently so the trip to the mountains didn't seem like it would be a problem.

Moving on, my girlfriend and I got back from a wonderful trip to the mountains and I went to pick Anthony up at our normal meeting place. His mother was there along with her husband and they were both smiling as I picked him up. I mention this, because they never are happy to see me. Usually they are scowling and not very friendly, but this time they weren't. I didn't think about it at the time, but it all made sense later.

When I picked him up, he seemed lethargic and introverted, which is unusual for him. He is hyper and very outgoing to the point of uncontrollable behavior most of the time, so this was very unusual. I just thought he was tired, because he didn't act like he had any energy or felt like playing like he usually did. A few days went by and I got a phone call at school that someone from child protective services wanted to talk to me. I of course called the woman back and she asked if I could come in and speak with her concerning Anthony. I immediately wanted to know what it was about, but she would not tell me over the telephone. I coudn't meet her for a couple days due to scheduling and in the mean time I called his mother and asked her. She told me she didn't have any clue, but of course I accused her of lying and wanted to know what was going on. She, as you have already probably guessed, wouldn't tell me a thing.

Finally the day arrived to meet with the child protective services woman and I was totally shocked, sick to my stomach, and dumbfounded when she told me what it was about.

Until next time readers....
