I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
HELLO
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
How did you as a human being change while growing up?
After a few moments he returns.
I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Yes sir it is.
Is homosexuality an excommunicable offense in Christianity?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Sure no problem officer.
I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
