“You need to get your shit together, kid. This is a family business. My
grandson is set to inherit this team and I’m not going to be shamed by your
shenanigans,” Wayne Valen, the owner of the Mischiefs, says to me.
It’s not every day you get a call from the owner of the team demanding a
meeting with you at his home. That’s what I woke up to this morning, and it
was only slightly better than the drama I woke up to yesterday. Or the day
before when my father called about his most recent session with his shrink.
Not to mention, the day before that, my daughter had a diaper explosion in
her crib sometime in the early morning. The shit continues to rain down on
me, both literally and figuratively.
There’s no point in telling Wayne that what happened this time wasn’t my
fault. It wasn’t, but given my reputation, he probably won’t believe me.
Hell, I don’t believe it myself, but it’s the truth.
My one-year-old daughter Jasmine bounces in my arms and reaches for
Mr. Valen’s long, beak-like nose. He lets her pull on it until she’s had
enough and drops her hand. I run my hand through her dark curls and she
calms down.
“Explain yourself, Son,” Wayne demands. He crosses his bony arms and
leans against his big mahogany desk. His home office is a mess of old
newspapers and pictures of our basketball team on the cover of a magazine
from last year when we won the finals.
“Mr. Valen, this time it really wasn’t me,” I begin. “What happened was
—”
“Oh, poppycock,” he says. “I don’t want excuses, and don’t for a second
think you can spin some grand story. Don’t even think you can lie to me.
I’ve raised seven daughters and have sixteen grandchildren. I know when
someone is lying.” I want to interrupt and tell him that he doesn’t know as
much as he thinks he knows because I’m telling the truth. “Every goddamn
day you’re involved in some kind of scandal, and they all involve women.
In my day, a man knew how to carry himself and not bring shame wherever
he went. Do I need to wire your zipper shut?”
If I was a smartass, I’d ask him what century he thought we were in. Or
I’d remind him that his generation thrived on sexually harassing their
secretaries and having secret families on the other side of town. That men
like him from his generation thrived on keeping others who weren’t from
his social circle out.
