this whole concept seems exceptionally intriguing to me so I am most excited to read it and get the full picture of it 🙌🏽
“Shalom!” why did I expect an entrance any different than this? I mean this is just Alfie to a t 🤣
“Nice to see you, too, brother,” “I was quite hurt, I have to admit, that I haven’t received an invitation to your child’s Baptism ceremony,” “To none of the ceremonies, to be exact.” She has so much sass and sarcasm, I love Rosemary already!!!
“Yes, sister,” “The one who caused scandal after scandal so eventually my beloved brother’s patience ran out… And he locked her in an asylum, didn’t he?” WOWWW JACK...you absolutely bastard of a brother ���
“Ah, apparently, you did not know. Pardon," BAHHAHA ALFIE!!! Well done, you just straight up exposed Jack like that in front of everyone 🤣
“So you care more about your reputation than the fact that your husband wanted his own sister to have a lobotomy?” THIS. Susan doesn't seem like the sharpest tool in the shed though 🤭
“Richard won’t become the President of the United States when the whole of America finds out about this scandal!” is it bad I cracked up laughing @ this part? bc lord Susan and her dramatics have me dead 🤣
“Mommy, don’t cry!” “Being a President is not the best job anyway! Look at Abraham Lincoln! It wasn’t good for him, was it?” Cynthia is the absolute cutest and most outspoken of their children and I may have a little soft spot for her 🥺
“Oh, that’s so unlike me, aunt Rosemary!” “I’m a good girl. In fact, I’m daddy’s favorite!” SO DAMN PRECIOUS 🥺
“Doesn’t mean I want my own but I am happy that you’ve got yours. They love you and you love them… You love your family, Jack. Why couldn’t you love me…?” O U C H ☹️😭
“Either way, it was a very pleasant party,” “Despite the lack of the invitation, I hope it won’t happen again,” I love Alfie 🤣 just no fucks given on his behalf.
“Don’t be stupid, Rosemary. I’m deceiving him, can’t you see? We’re going to destroy him, absolutely, bloody smash him to the ground and make him suffer, you bloody witch you. They should name a hurricane after you, you know that, my love?” I LOVE A MAN WHO UNITES IN REVENGE W HIS WIFE 🔥🙌🏽
this was AMAZING and I absolutely adore Rosemary as well as her and Alfie together. her character has such fire and sass that makes it difficult not to completely fall in love w her. I'm so conflicted on the open ending bc I love the way you allow for the reader to conjure their own ideal ending in their own minds, yet I'd kill to read more of this power couple. you truly never fail Lily, thank you yet another stunning fic that I'll definitely be coming back to again and again 🙌🏽
“Family Secret” – Alfie Solomons x OC, Jack Nelson x OC
Tumblr media
[ MASTERLIST ]
SUMMARY: Mr. and Mrs. Nelson throw a party after their youngest daughter’s Baptism ceremony when two uninvited guests decide to interrupt the event. Turns out that Mr. Nelson has been hiding a scandalous secret from everyone… his sister. Now she’s back, married and ready to take revenge.
AUTHOR’S NOTE: It’s an idea by my bestie @solomons-finest-rum​ but she insisted that I should write it, so here we go 😌 It’s so different from the stuff I usually create that it was super fun to write 💗
TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of lobotomy
WARNING: English is my second language.
WORD COUNT: 3,040

shoutout to my lovely friends for all their contributions to this fic. particularly thank you to cam for the amazing project name
warnings: anxiety, hints of bad eating habits
enjoy!
Evan pulls off his scarf and hangs it in his locker.
It’s finally snowed.
It snowed a few times before, October is notorious for it’s random snowstorms, but this is the first time this year it’s stuck. It started snowing Sunday morning and almost an inch gathered by mid afternoon. It was pretty light and uneventful, but Evan still made a point to send a picture of a snow dusted tree to Connor. Connor had replied ‘aesthetic’ and sent a picture of a plant Cynthia put in the living room that was mostly just dying.
Evan hangs up his coat and shoves the mittens in the sleeves. November is ending and only now does he really need to wear a coat to school. And take the bus. It’s hell.  
“So this is why you have a locker,” Connor says.
“You have a locker too,” Evan reminds him.
Connor laughs. “No I fucking don’t, not if I can’t tell you which one it is.”
Evan shakes his head. “You’re just lazy.”
“Yes.”
“But if you ever need to hang up a coat you’re welcome to use mine.”
Connor tilts his head. “Ev, what makes you think I’m weak enough to wear a winter coat?”
Evan stares at him. “The fact that tomorrow it’s supposed to be like six degrees out?”
“We die like men,” Connor says simply. He pulls Evan’s spanish textbook out of the locker and hands it to him.
“You die,” Evan says pointedly. “And your hands are freezing.” Evan stuffs the textbook into his bag and zips it shut. “Do you own gloves?”
“Cool fingerless gloves because it fits the aesthetic,” Connor says, wiggling his fingers.
Evan closes the locker. “You’re the worst.”
Connor bumps their shoulders together. “Come on, Ev, admit they’re cool.”
Evan shakes his head. “They really aren’t.”
“Don’t lie to me,” Connor says as he opens the door to the stairwell.
“Do you think I lie to you?” Evan asks, stopping to look Connor in the eye.
Connor stares at him.
Evan holds his breath. He doesn’t lie to Connor. Nothing he does is a lie. The question is will Connor figure that out. And if he does, will he hate him for it.
Connor rolls his eyes. “You just haven’t seen them yet. They’re cool.”
“Whatever you say,” Evan mutters. He starts down the stairs. “Has Jared started yet?”
“Started what?”
Evan opens the door at the bottom of the stairwell and holds it for Connor. “He has your phone number right?”
Connor frowns. “Yeah? Is something horrible about to happen?”
“What’s your definition of horrible?”
“Evan.”
“What?” Evan stops walking. “Don’t you go down?” He nods to the stairs.
Connor shrugs. “Yeah, but I can go the long way with you. What is Jared going to do?”
“Thanksgiving is Thursday,” Evan says slowly.
“Thank god. I don’t know how we’re getting through Wednesday but I’m fucking dying.”
“We have a half day, Connor.” Evan steps closer to him to squeeze past a group of students crowded around a locker.
“Who cares.” Connor looks down at him. “Anyway, what shit is Kleinman up to? And what does Thanksgiving have to do with it?”
“What happens after Thanksgiving?” Evan asks.
“People try to kill each other over jeans?” Connor suggests.
Evan snorts. “I-I mean, yeah, but it’s Christmas—”
“Jared is Jewish,” Connor interrupts. “I’m also Jewish. You’re Jewish.”
Evan glances up at him. “I know. He has this playlist of Christmas songs that he blasts in his car. I don’t know why. But he also has a playlist of Jewish parodies.”
“I’m sorry what?”
Evan sighs. “There’s one that’s called Shalom and he sang it for like a week. Basically, December is Jared’s favorite time of year because he can be an asshole under the guise of being ‘festive’.”
Connor groans. “Please don’t say he’s going to send me links to all these videos.”
“He will. I’m warning you.” Evan pauses. “Uh, this is my stop.” He motions to the classroom to their right.
Connor nods. “Cool. I’ll see you later, I have to go block Jared’s number.”
Evan smiles as Connor walks away and takes a deep breath before he goes into the classroom and sits down.
His pocket is light.
It’s Monday. Connor didn’t pay him today.
Evan rests his chin in his hand and hides his smile.
Maybe Connor just forgot. But it feels nice. Like this is real.
That’s what Evan wants.
—«·»—
“I’ve been talking to Baz,” Alana says, flipping through her notebook as she walks. Evan nods. “I think she might be a good advisor for the club? Students typically feel relatively comfortable talking to her and I know she’s discussed mental health at the beginning of the year before.”
Evan tightens one of the straps of his backpack. “Okay. I, um, we need a name before we talk to her?”
Alana shakes her head. “I think we can just discuss the idea with her, even if we don’t have all the details solidified yet. If she’s against the idea, regardless of the current state of the details, we have to find a new advisor.”
“Oh.” Evan steps away from Alana to let someone pass between them. “Do you… Like… Does it ever feel…not worth it?”
Alana furrows her eyebrows but doesn’t look over to him. “What do you mean?”
“You won’t even be around for the club, n-not really?” Evan shrugs. “It’s…a lot of work for something you won’t be around to see, I guess.”
“Well…” She slows her steps. “I mean, hopefully it’ll start next semester, and if not we can always say we took the step to start a discussion of mental health in the school but…it could help other people?”
Evan’s ears burned. “I didn’t mean—”
“I know you didn’t,” Alana says. “I’ve wondered it myself. There’s no glory in getting the details perfect if you aren’t there to run it, but if we help other people, I think it’s worth it in the end.”
Evan walks up to his locker and puts in the combination. “Y-you’re right, sorry I just— sorry.”
“Don’t be. It’s valid to think about.” Alana taps her nails against her notebook. “Now if only we could come up with a name…”
“A name for what?” Connor asks.
Evan looks up at him in surprise. “Isn’t your next class on the other side of the school?”
Connor shrugs. “Who gives a shit?”
“A name for our club,” Alana says, fixing her glasses. “It has a focus on mental health and starting a conversation about it in our school.”
“This club,” Connor says. He tugs on the strap of his bag. “What are you working with for names?”
Evan and Alana exchange a glance.
“Nothing,” Alana says after a moment. “I was thinking maybe we could have the word ‘project’ in the name, but I haven’t come up with anything that’s stuck. Do you have any suggestions?”
“The Fuck Project,” Connor deadpans.
Evan covers his eyes with a hand.
“We are not calling it the Fuck Project,” Alana says.
“It’ll get people’s attention,” Connor points out.
“Not in a good way,” Evan mutters. He drags his hand down his face and looks at Connor, who’s grinning at him.
“We do need to get this approved by the principal,” Alana adds. “And that name will give people the wrong idea, that is absolutely not what this club is about.”
Connor shrugs a shoulder. “Temporary name, congrats, I helped out.”
“Not really.”
The warning bell rings and Alana glances over her shoulder.
“I should go,” she says, “but I’ll text you about Baz?”
Evan nods. “Y-yeah that’s— okay yeah. I’ll see you later?”
Alana smiles and hurries down the hall.
Connor watches her leave. “Baz?” he asks, raising an eyebrow.
“Um, yeah.” Evan grabs the books he needs and closes the locker with his foot. “We need an advisor and Lana thinks Baz might be willing to help? Have you had her?”
Connor shakes his head. “Baz teaches the CP kids, usually. I’ve been, uh, honors.”
Evan blinks. “Oh yeah, I forgot college prep was a thing. She taught regular english sophomore year.”
“You had her?” Connor asks.
“Uh…kind of?”
Connor furrows his eyebrows. “What do you mean?”
“Bad semester,” Evan mutters. “I, uh… There weren’t a lot of classes I…went to?”
Connor nods. “Got it.”
“Don’t you have class?” Evan asks quickly. His head is starting to spin.
“Yeah, I just.” Connor steps closer and Evan’s heart skips a few beats. “I’m sorry I forgot this earlier.” He presses a bill into Evan’s hand.
Evan closes his eyes.
Right.
Right. Right, of course. Connor just forgot. He didn’t mean anything by it. He’s sticking to the agreement.
Evan feels sick.
He crumples the bill up in his fist. “It’s fine, don’t worry about it,” he mumbles.
“It won’t happen again,” Connor promises.
Evan’s hand feels like it’s on fire.
—«·»—
Jared tosses his bag onto the couch and disappears into the kitchen. “Have you gotten any better about keeping food in your house?” he shouts.
Evan rolls his eyes. “Why do I need t-to buy food when you do it for me?”
Jared leans out of the doorway. “Fuck off, man, you never buy the chips I like.”  
“Exactly.”
Jared glares at Evan and ducks back into the kitchen. “Hungry?”
“Not really.” Evan reaches into his pocket and grabs the ten dollar bill Connor handed to him earlier. “Meet me up in my room?”
“Sure, stealing this chocolate, B-T-dubs.”
“I can’t stop you,” Evan mutters. “Bring up your bag! Don’t leave it on the couch!”
“Don’t tell me what to do!”
Evan leaves Jared to pull apart the kitchen and heads up to his room. He leaves his backpack on his bed and pulls open his closet, pushing aside sweatshirts to get to a shoebox he’s buried. He pulls the ten out of his pocket and stares at it for a moment before he takes the top off the shoebox and puts it inside. Then he covers it back up with his sweatshirts and closes his closet door.
Now he can pretend it doesn’t exist.
When Jared kicks open the bedroom door with popcorn in one hand and chocolate in the other, Evan is sitting on his bed with his laptop open.
“Wow, lame,” Jared says. Evan glances up at him. “I’m kidding,” Jared says quickly. “That’s exactly what I did yesterday.” He drops down into Evan’s desk chair. “How’d you spend your weekend?”
Evan shrugs. “Same. S-some homework and uh…spent Friday with Connor.”
Jared opens his bag of popcorn. “I’ve been fucking dying to know, what have you spent all that money on? Murphy has to have given you a shit ton at this point.”
Evan stares at his laptop screen, rubbing his hands on his pants. “N-nothing yet it just…it feels weird.” He can feel Jared’s eyes on him and feels a panic build in his chest. “It feels weird! It’s just— it’s in a box in my closet.”
“Sweet.” Jared stands up.
“Jared!”
“Okay, okay, yeah, that was kind of dicky.” Jared falls back down into the chair. “I wasn’t going to take it, I was joking. Your money dude, you earned it with your weird uh…situation.” Evan makes a face. “Don’t fucking do that with your face, you know this is weird.”
“Shut up,” Evan mutters. He could go into a coma right now and that would be fine.
“We can start a list of things you could buy with it.” Jared throws a piece of popcorn into the air and tries to catch it in his mouth. It bounces off his right lense and lands on the floor. “I’ll get that later. Anyway. List.”
Evan glances to his closet.
“One, not shitty sneakers. Two, shirts that aren’t polos. Three, so much candy. Four, a video game. Five, multiple video games even, I don’t know how much money you have. Six, something nice for your mom cause you’re a real momma’s boy. Seven, a fuck ton of yugioh cards—”
“Yugioh cards?” Evan interrupts.
“Yes.” Jared throws a piece of popcorn at Evan. “Let me finish.”
Evan shakes his head. “I think I get it.” He closes his laptop and swings his legs over the side of the bed. “You don’t want the money sitting in my closet.”
“No shit.” Jared tosses Evan the chocolate bar. “You can have half. But yeah, you’ve got money, dude, it’s not gonna fucking collect interest if it’s in the back of your closet or anything. You’re spending all this time doing this bullshit job, why not actually use what you get paid?”
Evan opens the chocolate bar and breaks it in half before handing the half in the packaging back to Jared. “I-I already told you. It feels…weird. I don’t know.”
“You know,” Jared says as he takes the chocolate, “this is kind of a sugar daddy situation.”
Evan immediately goes red. “Oh my god.”  
“Minus the sex stuff,” Jared says casually. “And the age difference, cause I don’t think Murphy is that much older you, is he?”
Evan is ready to melt into the ground. Or die. Or both. Both would be perferrable. “Jared, please—”
“Sugar buddy,” Jared says, snapping his fingers. “Connor is your sugar buddy.”
“This is the worst.”
Jared takes a bite of chocolate. “Do you have a better name for this?”
Friendship? Evan wants to just call it friendship. That’s totally not the case but—
“We can call it platonic prostitution if you want.”
“If you say that again I am kicking you out of my house.”
Jared holds up his hands in surrender. “Valid. That is totally valid.”
Evan starts breaking up his half the chocolate bar into smaller pieces. “I just… I don’t know. It’s weird. It’s a weird situation. But let’s not call it…that.”
“Yeah,” Jared agrees. “Fucking weirdass… Kind of regret helping out with it, honestly. It feels like a trainwreck I can’t look away from.”
“Really comforting there, Jared,” Evan mutters.  
Jared spins in the desk chair. “I’m just saying, what started out as a funny ha ha losers thing has gotten decidedly less funny.”
Evan furrows his eyebrows. “What was this funny?”
“Dude, come on, at least the first week was fucking hilarious,” Jared says with a crooked smile. It seems forced, but it’s still there.
Evan grimaces. “It wasn’t.”
Jared loses the smile. “Okay. It wasn’t funny, my bad.”
Evan makes a strangled sound. “Do you talk to Connor?” Some of the chocolate is starting to melt. He pops a piece of it into his mouth.
Jared snorts. “Hell no. We coexist, are you really going to ask more of us?”
“No,” Evan admits. “But if I tell you something, you won’t tell him?”
Jared gives him a weird look. “Tell him?”
Evan stares at him with wide eyes. “You’re already judging me!”
“No I’m not!”
“Yes you are!”
Jared throws his hands in the air. “I don’t even know what I would be judging you for!”
“I want Connor to stop paying me.”
Jared stares at Evan.
Evan’s hands start to sweat and his heart races. He looks down at the chocolate in the palm of his hand and eats it before it can melt any more. He wipes his hands on his pants. Then he wipes them again.
“Yeah, no shit,” Jared says once the silence is too long and too awkward and too uncomfortable.
Evan groans and collapses on the bed. “I just—”
“Want to be friends?” Jared offers.
“Um…yes, but also—”
Jared sits up straighter. “You didn’t.”
Evan pulls on his fingers. “I…what?”
“You’re in love with him!” Jared shouts.
“No!” Evan almost falls off the bed as he scrambles to his feet. “No, I don’t—”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes! It’s just— it’s just a crush oh my god, Jared.”
Jared raises his eyebrows. “You said crush.”
Evan’s face gets hot. “Uh, yeah I— it-it’s not… I mean… I don’t think… It’s not like a big…deal? Or anything?”  
Jared stares at him. “Evan, it’s a big deal.”
Evan laughs awkwardly. “W-we don’t have to make it one.”
Jared squints. “Okay… I still have to kick your ass in Mario Kart. You ready?”
Evan takes a breath. “You’ve never been able to beat me, Jare. Especially since you keep choosing Rainbow Road.”
Jared jumps out of his seat. “Hell yeah I do, I’m going to mop the floor with your blood.”
Evan smiles. “Okay. If you say so.”
—«·»—
Jared loses. He swears aggressively as he reaches for his wallet to buy dinner.
“I hate you,” he hisses as he shoves a box of mozzarella sticks at Evan.
“Thanks,” Evan says. “Let me know when you want a rematch.”
Jared flips him off and grabs his sandwich off the table.
—«·»—
Heidi comes home as Jared is getting ready to leave. “Jared!” she says in surprise as she puts her bag down on the kitchen table. “I had no idea you were coming over.”
Evan and Jared look up from the television.
“Hey, Heidi, just wanted to steal your TV.” Jared tosses his Wii controller onto the couch.
“Your bag is still in my room,” Evan reminds him.
Jared shoots a fingergun at him. “Thanks.”
“Don’t leave on my account,” Heidi says, pulling her hair out of its ponytail.
“Nah, I have homework,” Jared says. “The moms want me home soon anyway.” He checks his phone and makes a face. “Yeah I should go, but thanks for letting me invade your house.”
“Anytime, Jared,” she says.
Jared grabs his bag from Evan’s room and bumps his shoulder against Evan’s as he goes to leave, wiggling his eyebrows.
Evan rolls his eyes. “Shut up,” he whispers.
Jared mimes zipping his lips. “See you tomorrow in hell.”
When Jared is gone, Evan finds his mom doing the dishes in the kitchen. “Can I help?” he asks.
She holds out a pot. “Dry and put away?”
Evan nods and takes it from her.
“It’s nice that you’re hanging out with Jared again,” Heidi muses. She washes a cup and sets it aside for Evan.
“Hm?” Evan dries off the pot and puts it in the cabinet next to the oven.
“You and Jared. You haven’t really spent a lot of time with him lately.”
“Oh.” Evan grabs the cup. “He’s been over. We…hang out and stuff.”
“That’s great.” She smiles at him. “It’s good that you have a friend.”
“Friends,” Evan corrects quickly, feeling guilt twist his stomach. He should be better at this. This friend thing. He should be making more progress than he has.
Heidi looks at him in surprise. “You’ve never mentioned anyone else before.”  
“Uh, yeah.” Evan keeps his eyes on the dishes he’s drying. “Connor.” He says it and then tries not to think about it. “And um…Alana?”
“Oh!” Heidi puts down the dish soap. “Well that’s great! We should try to have dinner with them sometimes.”
Evan ducks his head. “Mom.”
“I want to meet your friends!”
“I— uh…okay, I’ll um, ask them about it.” Evan decides he should never speak again. He keeps digging his holes deeper and deeper.
Evan talks with Connor by his locker. He walks with Connor in the halls. He smiles and laughs and pretends his chest isn’t constricting.
Connor looks at him and sometimes it feels real.
The ten isn’t in Evan’s pocket anymore, but Evan can still feel it’s presence.
They sit together at lunch and Connor pokes at Evan’s jello with a straw and Evan tries to keep his heartrate under control. Connor rambles on about something that happened in AP Lit — which is apparently the only class he pays attention to in any way — and Evan mostly just nods. Connor keeps looking at him and he kind of feels like dying.
Evan feels like he’s dying and then Connor smiles at him and better and it’s worse and Evan hates every part of his existence.
Connor bumps his shoulder against Evan’s and the butterflies in Evan’s stomach fluttered.
—«·»—
Evan sits at his desk and does homework. He hates it but it gives him something to do. His phone buzzes from where it’s plugged in next to his bed. Evan glances at his Spanish textbook. He gets up and checks his messages.
From: Connor To: Evan      can i call?
Evan’s throat immediately feels like it’s closing him. There’s an anchor wrapped around him and it’s dragging him down. Down down down—
He tries to type out a response but his hands are shaking.
Another message pops up on the screen.
From: Connor To: Evan      fuck its not bad shit i just realized how that sounds      im home alone and larry just got back and i dont want to talk to him      if im on the phone hell probably leave me alone
Evan takes a deep breathe and presses his palms against his eyes. It’s fine. It really is fine.
He replies as fast as he can, but it still takes him a minute to calm down.
From: Evan To: Connor      YEah fo course sorry for takin g so long to rpely
Connor’s response is almost immediate.
From: Connor To: Evan      you didnt take long at all ev youre fine      sorry if i scared you      gonna call now
Evan stares at the screen of his phone. As soon as ‘Incoming call from Connor’ pops up, he hits answer.
“Hello?” Evan sits down on the edge of his bed and grips the blankets.
“Hey,” Connor says. He sounds kind of tired. “Sorry if I freaked you out, didn’t think before I sent that.”
“It’s fine,” Evan promises. He doesn’t want to think about it anymore. A moment of panic. They can move on. “W-what do you want to, um, to talk about?”
“Don’t really know,” Connor admits. “Nice to talk to you, you sound different over the phone.”
Evan smiles. “So do you.” Connor’s voice sounds a bit deeper. Maybe rougher. “Someone thought I was a dad once when I had to call to cancel an appointment.”
“What?” There’s laughter in Connor’s voice and it makes Evan’s head spin. “How the fuck?”
“I don’t know. I-I just— I was trying to cancel and they were like ‘the patient’ and I was confused but was too scared to ask and then they asked my relation to the patient and were like ‘are you his father?’ and I was just kind of like… Well no, I’m the patient.”
Connor snorts. “Amazing. I’m proud of you for cancelling your son’s appointment.”
Evan leans back on his hands. “N-no they— we sorted it out. I almost threw up afterward but uh…probably could’ve gone worse.”
“Phone calls aren’t your thing, huh?” Connor asks. “Sorry for making you do this. If it’s easier for you we can stop.”
Evan shakes his head and then realizes that Connor can’t see him. “No it’s fine. Really, it’s okay with you. It’s nice.” Whoops that was more than he was supposed to share.   
“Okay, if you’re sure. Let me know if you want to hang up.”
“Of course,” Evan murmurs. “Uh… I asked you this like…three hours ago, but how was your day?”
“Pretty shit,” Connor admits. “Right now I’m uh….eating grapes.”
“Well that’s good. You didn’t eat lunch.”
“I never eat lunch.”
Evan hums. “Okay, that’s true.”
“What about you?” Connor asks. “Have you eaten anything today other than shitty cafeteria food?”
“Uh…no,” Evan says slowly. “I’m not super hungry.”
“Get a drink or something for me.”
Evan smiles. “Are you trying to parent me?”
“Fuck, Zoe’s rubbing off on me, isn’t she? How the fuck?” Evan imagines Connor dragging his hand through his hair.
“Her and your mom,” Evan points out. “They aren’t that similar, you know.”
There’s a slight pause. “I guess you’re right. I don’t notice that shit. Zoe’s just…Zoe. I don’t know.”
“Outsider’s perspective,” Evan suggests. “I also don’t live with them, so I might be wrong.”
“Huh.” There’s a pause. “Okay but hydration.”
“I’m going,” Evan promises. He stands up from his bed and heads down the stairs. “Are you staying hydrated?”
Connor clears his throat. “Uh…” Evan smiles as he hears Connor’s bed squeak as Connor stands up. “Yeah of course.”
“You’re going to get a drink, aren’t you?” Evan asks. He walks into the kitchen and pulls a cup from the cupboard.
“No,” Connor says quickly. “Definitely not.”
“Okay.” Evan fills the cup with water and takes a sip. “So uh…sports?”
Something on Connor’s end shuts. “I’m gay.”
Evan rolls his eyes. “Okay. Then you choose the conversation starter.”
“Okay. Did you know that eggplants are fruits?”
“Yeah.”
“Fuck there goes my fun fact.”
Evan laughs. “I’m sure you can think of something else.”
“Don’t have faith in me, Ev, it’ll end badly. But give me a second.” Evan drinks his water as Connor thinks. “Okay. Want to hear lots of random shit about Ancient Egypt? Zoe and I had a phase.”
Evan sits down in a kitchen chair. “You know I do.”
“Well get comfortable, because this is going to be a while.”

The Chase Files Daily Newscap 6/10/2019
Good MORNING  #realdreamchasers! Here is The Chase Files Daily News Cap for Monday 10th June 2019. Remember you can read full articles for FREE via Barbados Today (BT), Barbados Government Information Services (BGIS) or by purchasing a Daily Nation Newspaper (DN).
Tumblr media
BWA REPAIRING A 12 INCH BURST MAIN AT JEMMOTTS LANE – The Barbados Water Authority would like to inform the public that on Sunday, June 9, it has sustained a burst on a 12-inch main at Jemmott’s Lane, St Michael.  This burst may result in water outages or low pressure mainly  to the Jemmott’s Layne area. Crews have been mobilized and are addressing the issue. Motorists and pedestrians should make every effort to cooperate with the traffic wardens and where possible avoid this area. Water Tankers will be dispatched to assist essential services first.  Therefore the delivery of water to the other affected areas may be delayed. The Barbados Water Authority regrets any inconvenience to its valued customers.  (BGIS)
DEMS DISCUSS GOVERNMENT’S FIRST YEAR – Scores of Democratic Labour Party supporters have gathered at the St Michael School for the party’s public meeting. Several members of the party including party leader Verla Depeiza are expected to address the audience. So far new party members Ryan Walters and Andre Worrell have spoken on issues like proper communication and the present state of the economy in Barbados. (DN)
TIMES UP – Time’s up for delinquent Barbados Investment and Development Corporation (BIDC) tenants who have racked up millions of dollars in rental arrears over the last decade. And while not disclosing when action will begin, BIDC chairman John Rocheford told the media yesterday the state agency would begin a lock-out because the six-month grace period announced last August by Minister of International Business and Industry Ronald Toppin and its subsequent extension, ended on May 31. “It cannot be business as usual. BIDC is also a business and we must run it as a business,” Rocheford said. “The money that we spend on various projects and other aspects of our business we have to get revenue from somewhere to keep those projects and so on, going. Therefore, we can no longer sit down and allow people to not pay the rent that they have agreed to pay.  (DN)
WANTED: Ryan Oneal Corbin – The Royal Barbados Police Force is seeking the assistance of the public in locating a wanted man.  He is 42-year-old Ryan Oneal Corbin alias 'breadfruits' or 'fruits' whose last known address is Grenville Way, Cave Hill, St. Michael. He is wanted for questioning in connection with serious criminal matters. Corbin is of a dark complexion, approximately 6 feet tall with a slim build. He has a low hairstyle, small eyes, protruding large ears and has a gold cap on his bottom front tooth. Ryan Oneal Corbin is advised that he can present himself to the Drug Squad, Oistins Police Station, Oistins, Christ Church accompanied by an attorney-at-law of his choice. Any person, who may know the whereabouts of Ryan Oneal Corbin, is asked to contact the Drug Squad at 416-2631 or 2632, Police Emergency at 211, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIPS (8477), or the nearest police station.  The public is reminded that it is a serious offence to harbour or assist wanted persons; any person caught committing this offence can be prosecuted. (Dn)
BRAZIL WOMEN BEAT REGGAE GIRLZ 3-0 – Brazil’s Cristiane became the oldest player to score a hat-trick in the Women’s World Cup as the former finalists sealed a superb 3-0 victory over debutants Jamaica on Sunday to kick off their campaign in convincing fashion. At 34 years and 25 days, Cristiane eclipsed the record of American Carli Lloyd who was 32 years and 355 days when she scored three times in a 5-2 win over Japan in the 2015 final. Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo holds the men’s record, having scored three goals in a 3-3 draw with Spain in the 2018 World Cup in Russia at 33 years and 130 days. Victory at Stade des Alpes in Grenoble meant Vadao’s Brazil maintained their perfect record in World Cup openers and also snapped a run of nine straight defeats in the lead-up to the tournament since a 2-1 win over Japan last July. Cristiane, starting in place of fellow forward Marta who was ruled out of the game with a thigh problem, gave Brazil the lead in the 15th minute by meeting Barcelona midfielder Andressa’s cross from the left with a header past Sydney Schneider. The South Americans continued to create chances and could have doubled their lead after earning a penalty for handball by Jamaica defender Allyson Swaby, but Schneider saved Andressa’s tame effort on goal seven minutes before the break. Cristiane tucked in her second goal from a tight angle following the restart as Andressa provided the assist again, before she completed her hat-trick with a powerful freekick that rattled the underside of the crossbar and landed in. It was the first hat-trick for Brazil in the women’s World Cup since Sissi and Pretinha scored three goals each in a 7-1 thrashing of Mexico in 1999. Brazil, who are aiming to surpass their best-ever finish in 2007 when they were beaten by Germany in the title clash, take on Australia in Montpellier in their next Group C contest on Thursday. Jamaica play Italy in Reims on Friday.  (DN)
BFPA CELEBRATING 65 YEARS – A mysterious series of fires at the Barbados Family Planning Association last year was not enough to destroy the will of employees to provide quality healthcare to Barbados’ most vulnerable groups. On Sunday morning, the board, management and staff celebrated 65 years as Barbados’ oldest Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), with a service at the St Paul’s Anglican church. President of the Association, Revered Ruth Phillips told the congregation that despite the challenges, the BFPA has not deviated from its mandate of facilitating the growth of strong families in Barbados. In fact, she reported more than 60,000 services were delivered to Barbadians in 2018. “Despite the challenges of 2018, the BFPA accomplished several things. We were the winners of the prestigious West Wing Award for Empowerment and we received this award from the International Planned Parenthood Federation and Barbados being so small in a western region, we are a force to be reckoned with…So, we in Barbados have a lot to be proud of with the work that the Barbados Family planning association is doing,” Phillips said. A fire of unknown origin crippled the association’s services last April costing $5 million in repairs. However an abundance of donations helped to keep the entity afloat “during its time of great tribulation”. “I am proud to be a part of this entity with a wholesome and responsible social work with diverse groups of people in the Barbados community and one that has grown from strength to strength with an increasing number of people who are assessing its wide range of high quality, affordable and confidential service,” she said. (BT)
SIR ASSAD’S MOMENT – Founder of Chefette Restaurants, Barbados’ most popular fast food company, Sir Assad John Haloute, was last night formally presented with his insignia by Governor General Dame Sandra Mason after being knighted in the Queen’s 2019 New Year’s Honours List. At the ceremony held at Government House, Cynthia Joan Williams, Reverend Hughson CarlosInniss and John Wayne Anderson Watts received their Order Of The British Empire (OBE) awards. The late Dr Frances Chandler, who died in February, had also been named a Member of the BritishEmpire (MBE) for her work in agriculture and sustainable development. Her niece Stephanie Barnett accepted the award. Following the ceremony, Sir Assad said he felt “happy” and “honoured”, as he thanked the Chefette staff and his family for their support.  (DN)

He survived the Holocaust, only to be struck and killed by a car in Oregon
https://embed-prod.vemba.io/vemba-embed.js
A Holocaust survivor who was trying to make sure the world never forgot what happened fell short of finishing his life’s work.
Alter Wiener, a 92-year-old from outside Portland, Oregon, was struck and killed by a car on Tuesday evening, Hillsboro Police said.
Wiener had been walking just before 5 p.m. when a driver hit him, Hillsboro Police Sergeant Eric Bunday said Wednesday. He was walking outside the crosswalk and wearing dark clothing on the rainy night and the driver didn’t see him. The driver will not be charged or cited, Bunday said.
“I’m just very sorry. He was an incredible man with one impressive legacy,” Bunday said.
A life of struggle turned into a legacy
Wiener had been the only member of his family to survive the Holocaust.
His father was killed when he was 13, according to his autobiography. He spent three years in concentration camps, including the infamous Auschwitz camp. When he was liberated in 1945, he weighed only 80 pounds.
CNN profiled him in September.
Wiener detailed his experiences in a 2007 memoir, titled “From A Name to A Number: A Holocaust Survivor’s Autobiography.”
Wiener was one of the last remaining survivors in the Portland area, where he had lived since 2000. He shared his life story with nearly 1,000 groups at schools, churches, synagogues and more.
He was working to persuade Oregon state legislators to create and pass a bill that would mandate educators teach students about the Holocaust and genocide. It was dubbed the Genocide Curriculum bill.
Wiener recently shared his desire to educate, inspire and spread love throughout America with the Oregon State Senate Education Committee.
“Be better, rather than bitter,” Wiener told the committee in September.
A community in mourning
Cynthia Peterson, an outreach librarian in Hillsboro, said she had the pleasure of knowing Wiener for the past decade. She brought books to him at his home.
“I’m devastated. It’s hard when we lose any of our patrons, but Alter was an author and he has a huge story to tell and he wanted it told,” Peterson said. “It meant the world to him to educate all of Oregon. We all adored him, and this is a huge loss.”
“To me he’s immortal because he has left these pieces for us and we must use them to educate the next generation,” she added.
The Hillsboro Public Library also shared a tribute to Wiener, who spoke at the library many times, most recently in May 2016.
“His story is at once moving, heartbreaking, and hopeful, and should be watched and shared by everyone. Rest in peace, Alter,” the library wrote on Facebook.
The Jewish Family & Child Service of Portland said Wiener was a beloved member of its Holocaust survivor community.
“His passing is a great loss to the Jewish community. Alter was one of only a small number of lasting Holocaust survivors in the greater Portland area,” the group wrote on Facebook.
The Facebook page for Wiener’s memoir shared a moving tribute from Alter’s family.
“At 92 and with so many ailments we did not expect dad to be immortal but are still reeling from the shock of the way that he did leave this earth,” his son wrote. “His reputation in the community preceded him; the officers who called me from the Hillsboro PD were very compassionate and one even commented ‘it’s hard to believe he survived the concentration camps only to die in this way.’”
A memorial service for Wiener has been set for Friday at Congregation Neveh Shalom in Portland.
