Taking me out of school for a couple of days was out of the question, so she asked me if I could stay with a friend of ours (I'll call him Jerry) f...r a few days. Jerry was an older man that was a widower we knew for years. He agreed to take care of me while she was out of state. Wednesday night he came over, he and mom got everything together, and instructions for dropping me off and picking me up Thursday and Friday at school. Mom hugged me and told me to be good and listen to Jerry, and. Dressed, he pulled out his personal cell phone and dialed Courtney's number."Hey, Matt," she answered."I'm ready," Grigsby stumbled out.

I saw that my house was still locked. I called my father he said that he is also in a party and after that he have to return to the hospital as the emergency doctor has gone out of station so dad has to be there in his place and as he was alone mom preferred to be with him in hospital itself that nite so he asked me to lock the door.
