John 17:17 Sanctify them by the truth. your word is truth
"It's been...so long," Peter smiled "How's your daughter?"
Coach Henry hugged Peter and then look at the red-headed father with the glasses, he hasn't seen Peter for over 20 years, he knew his brother, but he knew him very well,
"Oh, she's fine, she's married, and she and her husband are going to have a baby..." Coach Henry smiled "And I don't think I'm ready to be a grandpa, can't you imagine your 24-year-old kid who has kids of their own and then those kids call you grampus or Grammy even though you're only in your late-30s,"
They both chuckled and laugh and then Henry ended it with a joyful sigh
"How are Johnny and Matthew doing are they with you?" The coach wondered
Peter took his glasses off and then cleans them and put them back on, he's so happy to see his old friend again,
"They're fine, they're just in the bathroom right now. Why did you ask?" Peter asked
"I was just wondering, how can you take care of them without a mother figure around, it must be hard...is it?" Henry asked "And I'm so...I mean, from the bottoms of my heart, I'm so sorry about your loss..."
Peter stopped smiling and then looked down to his feet like he did something wrong, Coach Henry noticed this and felt bad and try to comfort him, he puts his hand on to Peter's arm, Peter pushes Henry's hand away from him, he felt bad about ten years ago he did do something, but he didn't want his sons to know about it, because if he tells them, be afraid that they might not talk to him again.
"About that...There's something that I haven't told Johnny or Matthew about this, but my wife...is not really dead." Peter finally told the truth
Coach Henry jaw drop as Peter still looks down looking like he's about to cry
"What?" the Coach gasp "W-Wh-Why did you-"
"I didn't want my sons to think of me as a cured man who hates women, I mean, I love women desperately and I love my sons dearly but-" Peter tries to speak
"But what!?" Henry worried "What happened to her?"
The red-headed father was trying his best not to cry, he quickly hides his tears away from Henry, he covered his face.
"She ran off..." Peter sniffed "And I don't know why?"
"DADDY!" a voice from behind
Johnny came running out of the bathroom with a worried look on his face, Peter saw it, he started to sweat, he was afraid that his son heard his and the coach conversation.
"What is it?" Peter asked nervously
"It's Matthew, he won't get off of the toilet," said Johnny
Peter sigh in relief that Johnny didn't hear his and the coach conversation, but still, he panics about his other son is still in the bathroom
"What happened?" the father wonders
"He's having Diarrhea!" Johnny replied
Peter turned red as everyone looked at them, he's so embarrassed,
"Not out loud...S-S-sorry, H-H-He's n-not usually t-this loud..." Peter stuttering and chuckling
"Oh no, it okay, when my daughter was 5 she shouted out that I'm urinating in the men's room, and guest what she was in the men's room with me." Coach Henry chuckled "I'll see you later,"
They both waved goodbye to coach Henry as Peter went followed his son to the bathroom, they stop at the entrance of the restroom and Peter knock on the door,
"Occupied," Matthew responded who was still on the toilet
"Matthew it's us, Johnny told me about your..." Peter pause and then clear his throat "Anyways, you're probably just nervous about the voting prompt, don't worry you won't be after we make you and your brother's suit."
Matthew finished up and then flush and goes to the sink and washed his hands, after that he came out of the bathroom. Peter paid for the ties, they got out of the store, got in the car, and then they drove back home.
