CHAPTER 6

RESULTS

After practice, Dominic got into the car without saying goodbye to anyone — even ignoring Johnny and Nathan.

Grandpa could tell something was wrong right away. “How was practice today?” he asked.

“I don’t want to talk about it,” Dominic replied. “I just want to know how Caleb’s doing.”

“We haven’t heard anything yet, but they should be calling any minute,” Grandpa said. “There’s a soccer game on tonight. What do you say we watch it while we wait?”

Dominic smiled. At least it would be a distraction. “Sure thing, Grandpa,” he replied.

As soon as they got home, Dominic and Grandpa grabbed a snack from the kitchen, but before they could do anything else, Grandpa’s phone rang. Immediately, Dominic felt his stomach get tight with worry.

“Hello?” Grandpa said into the phone. Then he paused for a minute.

Dominic stood still as he watched, almost afraid to move.

“Oh, thank goodness!” Grandpa cried. He wiped tears from his eyes, but Dominic could tell they were happy tears.
