A WEEK LATER, MITCH’s dad was home from the hospital resting comfortably with a pissed off Estelle off in Switzerland, and I was taking Mitch back to see our foster parents. Actually, a well-armed Richard was taking us to see them. I knew that Mitch stayed in touch with them somewhat – birthday cards, Christmas gifts, and even flowers for Mother’s Day for Dorey. As nice as all of those things were, I knew they’d love to see him in person because, to the best of my knowledge, they hadn’t seen him since he left their home at fifteen years old.

As for me, they were the only family I had. They came to my graduation from basic training and I stayed in touch with them while I was in the service. I visited them when I was on leave and I started spending holidays with them once I got out of the service. Howard and Dorey became Mom and Dad to me. Oddly, I never brought them up with Mitch the entire time I worked for him. I would tell Howard and Dorey about him when I came home for holidays or when one of the other guys filled in for me so I could have a weekend off. I’d seen the gifts he sent them when I visited, but I never once mentioned my visits back home to Mitch. Why? I didn’t want to make him feel guilty? I didn’t want to share them? Or, was I protecting my heart? Maybe I didn’t want to take Mitch back home to them unless it was meaningful. I didn’t just want him to visit as my former foster brother, but the most important person in my life. Did that even make any fucking sense?

All I knew for certain was that Howard and Dorey were going to be thrilled to see him. They remained in Bakersfield, but they moved to a smaller home once they retired from being foster parents in their mid-sixties. Of course, Mitch knew they moved because he had their address, but I doubted he’d ever seen their new ranch home. I was sure he’d figure out where we were going by the interstate signs, but for the time being he was content to sit back and let Richard whisk us off somewhere away from the stress of being hunted by a killer.

The only thing we’d learned about Timothy’s service was that he had indeed showed signs of unraveling toward the end. There was no particular incident showing how violent Timothy would turn out to be, but there were definite indicators that he needed help. Mostly, he was fighting and being insubordinate to his superiors. He was given a medical discharge but it seemed like the army didn’t seem to worry about follow-up care for him. Perhaps I wasn’t being fair, I mean, they couldn’t make him get mental health treatment. He had to want to get better too.

His time in prison was a whole different story. Vic’s contact
