Ian P.O.V. ~
A few weeks had passed and Anthony and I never looked at the paper, but today I finally picked it up.
Court Date: August 14, 2012
Time: 5:00 p.m.
Where: Sacramento Court House
Fine: To Be Determained by Jury
Today was our court date.
I handed the paper to Anthony. "This is just great," I said sarcastically.
"Don't stress to much. It'll be fine. We have our savings and we still get paid by YouTube."
"Yeah, I guess. I should be getting dressed."
"Me too."
We both went to our rooms to get changed. It was only 4:00 but I knew it would take about 20 minutes to get there. I was worried about Anthony. Anthony acted more like a parental figure than I did. Anthony was always there for Tony. I knew this was hard on him.
On the way to the court room I could tell Anthony was having trouble accepting the fact our son hated us.
"It'll be okay." I told him whe n we were about half way there.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Yes you do. You can't stand the fact that Tony hates us."
"He doesn't hate us. We raised him."
"You're in denial."
"No I'm not! He doesn't hate us! He can't!" Anthony started crying.
I pulled the car over to the side of the road.
"Anthony. Anthony stop. Please stop crying. I know you love him. I do to,but he knows we aren't his real parents. You can't expect him to act like he's 5 years old again."
"I know. I'm sorry. Let's just go and get this over with. Please."
"Okay." I said as I started driving.
