Season Two - Ep. 3
I drove up to Conteticut today...
After school I called myparents to tell them.
My mom said, "If your going to go up the summer house, at least come home tonight. Your father and I are going to the New York Opera in a few minutes."
I drove up, and on my way, called my brother's cell.
"Yeah?" he anwsered.
"yo, are you gonna be home tonight?" I asked.
"Yeah, i'm gonna have some friends over."
"Fine, but I'm not gonna be home 'till tomorow. I'm going to the summer house." i told him.
"See yah." he said, and hung up.
I finially got up there, parked the car and went through the gate to the back yard. The lake looked perfect, just as it did last summer, the summer before that, and so on...
I went to open the back door. I looked in my pockets for the keys, but they weren't there. I went back to my car and searched everywhere.
"Fuck..." I said. They where on my dresser. I forgot to take them.
I got in my car and started it up. I drove out the drive way and back home.
______________________________________________________________
I arrvied home and was greeted by the pitch dark of the sky.
I got the door opened and went upstairs to my room. But across the hall in my brother's room, I heard mummurs.
I went to go and say hi, but when i was about to walk in, I saw Alexis and him, sitting with their back to me on the bed.
I stopped and listened...
"I have to tell him..." Alexis whispered.
"You don't...he doesn't know about it..." I heard my brother's voice.
"Yes...I think he has a pretty good idea..." Her voice was shaky, like she was crying.
"What do you mean...you told him?"
"No...all I said was 'Your the father...But I'm not sure.'"
Then silence.
"He knows...oh god..." My brother.
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!" Alexis yelled.
I stopped. I stopped breathing. I stopped moving. I just re-thought the words just spoken...
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
The words kept replaying in my head like a virus...infecting every part of my body.
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
My brother had fucked Alexis...My own flesh and blood...
And he knew I loved this girl.
"I can't have a kid now..I'm dating some one..." My brother stumbled.
"Me too...your brother. He doesn't know it's you...but when he does...Oh god, I can't even think what he would do..." Alexis trailed off.
I had to leave...I had to get out of there. I ran into my room, grabbed the summer house, went downstairs and opened the door...my impulse told me to queitly leave, but I wanted them to know..so I slammed the door shut and ran outside in my car. As I started the car, I saw Alexs and my brother run outside to see what the slamming noise was. Alexis saw me...
She saw the fury in my eyes and put her hand over her mouth...
...a tear strolled down her cheek...
My brother looked at me...he didn't look sad nor happy...his face was blank...
I drove off...
With the words of Alexis still with me...
"But I didn't tell him...he doesn't know you're the father!"
