Chapter 132

“Mommy said I’m the oldest.” Unfazed, Colton gave concrete evidence.

Thomas sulked.

“Why haven’t I heard Mommy talk about it before? It doesn’t count since I heard nothing of that sort. I came to your rescue. My awesomeness proves that I’m the older brother.”

“You can refute all you want, lil’ brother, but there are certain things that can’t be changed in life,” Colton patiently explained.

“I don’t care. You’re the younger brother!”

“We’re in desperate times right now. Why don’t we figure a way out of there, and leave this question to Mommy when we get out?” It was not the time and place to argue about this with Thomas. What if his abductor returned? It would put Thomas at risk too. Hence, Colton proposed an idea.

Colton initially planned to wait for the adults to arrive. Now that Thomas was here, the boy would not leave if he did not go along with him.

It was there and then that Colton decided to go on an adventure with his chatterbox brother.

“Deal!” Thomas readily agreed to the suggestion.

Thomas believed it was not wise to debate the issue right now. Although Thomas was the older brother for sure, it was best to leave the subject alone for now since Colton was injured and abducted.

He started to plan with Colton for their escape.

Thankfully, Thomas did not come unprepared.

Thomas proudly pulled out a foldable skateboard from his backpack.

He skillfully unfolded the skateboard and fastened a rope to one end of the board.

“Come on, Lil’ Brother. I’ll pull you.

“Mommy should be here any minute since she noticed us missing. We can just look for a good hiding spot. I saw a small cave not too far from here on my way here…”

Thomas gleefully showed off his gear to Colton, practically asking to be praised.

“You’re smart, Thomas.” Colton played along as Thomas gave him a look of anticipation.
