Adams POV
When I got to the morgue, it was very dark and dismal looking. It had a look and feel to it that was just plain creepy. I got to the desk and told the lady that was behind it that I was Adam Banks and I was here to identify my parents. She gave me a look of complete pity and showed me to the doctor.
The doctor gave me a quick, well- rehearsed speech that I could tell he's told a thousand people, something about preparing myself for the worst.
He opened the drawer for the first body, and removed the sheet. It was my father. I just nodded at the doctor. He knew that meant yes. He quickly closed the drawer and opened the one right next to it. He removed the sheet. It was my mother. Again, I nodded. The doctor shut the drawer.
I asked the doctor if I was done and left the room. I didn't cry. I like to hide my feelings. There would be plenty of time to cry later, when I was alone. For now, I'll put on my happy mask and pretend that I'm fine.
I simply waved to the lady at the desk on my way out. Then, I drove over to Ducksworth, Savor, and Gross.
As I walked into Ducksworth office, that loser coach of the Ducks bumped into me. Ugh, Gordon Bombay, my day can't get any worst. On the up side, maybe he's getting sued or something. He is in a lawyers' office. He looked shocked that the person he bumped into was me. He looked almost afraid of me. You'd think I just lit his house on fire or something. I rolled my eyes and stalked by him. I believe I mumbled "fucking moron, like my day wasn't bad enough." I heard him say a quick I'm sorry. Whatever, I don't need that jerks sympathy.
When I got to Ducksworths office, got buzzed right in. There were 3 people in the office. One was Ducksworth, the other two I didn't recognize.
"Hi Adam, please sit down."
"Hi Mr. Ducksworth," Adam sat down
"I wish we could be meeting over better circumstances. This is Ms. Donavan, a social worker, and Ms. Ross, a grief counselor. They're going to help us today, and be here for the will reading. Is that alright with you?"
"Yeah" Adam said
"Since your Aunt couldn't make it down right away, we will read the will without her. She can hear it when she comes down, or over the phone. Usually we would wait, but we feel it necessary to place you with your guardian, As soon as possible. Are you ready to go ahead with the will now."
"Yeah, I'm OK."
"Good, we'll start with the financial assets. They left you with a trust. Basically they left you with all their financial assets, but you can't spend it all. You get a certain amount per month. It's like getting a paycheck. It works that way until you're 21. Then, you get control. The house, their cars, and the boat will all be sold. The money will go into your trust. They left personal belongings up to you. Your mom wanted you to pick some things and give it to her sister, along with her jewelry, with the exception of her engagement and wedding ring. She wanted you to have those to one day give to your wife.
"OK"
"Lastly, there's your guardian."
Ducksworth looked at Ms. Ross, the grief counselor.
Ms. Ross began, "This is very difficult, Adam. In a perfect world you would not be hearing this from us. We have a letter from your mom and dad. We'll give you that in a minute. I'm just going to come right out and tell you. Phillip wasn't your biological father."
"What, That's not possible!"
Ducksworth started, "I'm sorry, Adam, He may not have been your biological father, but he loved you with his whole heart."
Adam was furious. "You're lying there's no way. What the hell is wrong with you people? I haven't been through enough shit in the last two days? You want to add more to the pile. Go to hell!"
Ms. Ross put her hand on my arm to calm me down.
"Get your hand off me!" I shrugged her hand off, and started to storm out of the office.
Ducksworth started again. "Adam, why would I lie? I was one of Phil's best friends. I've watched you grow up. I know this is a lot to take in."
"Why didn't he tell me?"
"He thought you would think less of him. He was terrified you'd disown him if he told you." Ducksworth said.
"He raised me, I wouldn't disown him."
"I understand that this is hard, Adam, but can you sit down, there's more."
"Fine, I guess"
"Your guardian is going to be your biological father."
"Who is he?" Adam asked.
"First, he was your mothers' boyfriend before your father. She left him,and he never found out about you, until today.
"OK"
"You kind of know him. Gordon Bombay, coach of the Ducks."
"No Way!! How could he be my father? This just keeps getting better and better." Adam said sarcastically, "You're telling me that my biological father and the man that I have to live with for the next two years is Gordon Bombay. The Gordon Bombay that yanked me out of the Hawks, resulting in me being torn away from my family and friends for the last six years. Let's add to that pile that I just called him a fucking moron not twenty minutes ago. My life is just one sick joke.
Ms. Donavan started, "Gordon has agreed to take you. You will be moving in with him, his fiancé, and her son."
I felt defeated. "OK, I guess"
"I will warn you." Ducksworth started, the son is one of the Ducks. I know there is quite a feud there."
"Which Duck," Adam asked vehemently.
"Charlie Conway" Ducksworth answered.
Adam took a deep breathe, "Great."
Ms. Donavan spoke again. "I'll give you the rest of the night alone, to sort things out, and deal with things. Gerald will call Gordon and tell him to meet you at your house at nine AM tomorrow morning.
"Fine, whatever"
"Gordon's a good man. Hopefully you can put the past behind you and build a relationship. Phillip was a great dad, but he's gone now. I know Gordon will never be able to replace him. He can take on a whole new role, if you let him. Oh and before I forget. Here's the letter from the will."
I practically ran out of Ducksworths office. I couldn't get to the car fast enough. When I got to the car, I just took a couple of deep breathes. I held back the tears for when I was alone.
The first thing I did when I got home was call Scott. I told him that I needed to talk. He said he'd pick up a pizza and be right over.
OK, I hope you guys liked it!!!! Please Review !!!!
