Seven Months of Rent Receipts Proved What My Son Had Taken From Me
Beside each monthly entry, I wrote the exact cash withdrawal envelope number from my Columbus credit union statements.
On the top line of the page, I wrote the date April twelfth: eighty-five thousand dollars transferred from my house closing check directly into Mark’s main account.
I reached into my cardigan pocket and pulled out my dark blue flip phone.
I opened the camera menu and turned on the small flash beside the lens.
I held the phone six inches above the yellow paper, keeping my wrist steady until the blue focus square stopped moving.
I pressed the center button and heard the soft shutter click inside the plastic casing.
