Chapter 4

Cody

Jesse had a plan and it sounded like it would work. I mean what were my choices. Killing Sue and her lover was not one nor was paying alimony to a cheating wife for the rest of my life while she lived rent free in my house. I was not going to pay child support for a kid that is not mine either.

Jesse knew I always helped on that charity ride and that would fit in with the plan for me to disappear. I halted the ride at the edge of the river telling everyone I would cross first to make sure it was safe. I made the horse rear and I fell into the river. I quickly swam underwater to the deepest part then stayed under until I reached the cave that Jesse and I had discovered when we were kids. I swam inside then surfaced and sat on the rocks. People searched the river, but no one knew about that cave but Jesse and me.
