Bankruptcy Court:
The day had finally arrived and we were to be at the Bankruptcy Court by 10:30am. This actually worked good for us, we were able to get the kids on the bus and based on what they attorney told us, we’d be home in time to pick them up from the bus. The attorney had requested that we meet him at 10am for a final review and some coaching.
As we drove to the courthouse we both stayed silent. Everything that could have gone through my mind (in that ride) did. Like, why is she so quiet? Is she that disapointed in me? What would the judge ask us? I wonder if we’ll get our next tax return. Did I disclose everything? Why isn’t she saying anything?
Then out of the horizon (or the right from the parkway) we saw it. The Courthouse. It stood as tall as the sky would allow and the parking lot was sea of cars. She reached over and took my hand and said “we’ll get through this together” and like that I found a spot and parked my car.
