We asked for a public witness and one man raised his hand to speak up against these horrible injustices and theft.
Last week an incident took place in our home that alarmed everyone and not just because it hit so close to home that it was in our own kitchen, right on our own countertop, but it was really bad because it was thievery, and it happened, and somebody did it, and we couldn't figure out who. Finally, a witness has stepped forward in the case that may blow the whole thing wide open.
The star witness stepped forward luckily and the case against the alleged perpetrator is starting to take shape. We knew "somebody" stole the cake, likely somebody who has the ability to reach counter tops, so we already suspected it was, I don't know, my dad or perhaps my mom, but there was no witness and no confirmation.
The uncertainty ends now, because when the question was raised, Dominic raised his hand to step forward and do the right thing. It isn't easy to rat out your own mother, as this junior Dominic fellow did, but that's what it's come down to.
Left - He sounds garbled when he talks, but I think that's just his historically poor articulation, but this is the star witness who swears he witnessed the theft of chocolate cake firsthand.
It's taken a lot of courage on the part of Dominic to nark on his own flesh and blood, but I admire him for it. I think he's done the right thing here, though it wasn't easy.
Fortunately, Dominic has done the right thing. The cake thief has been identified, and that's mama. She's a mad cake freak, I guess, and it's embarrassing to know we're harboring such a criminal type. It's hard to admit when one of your own turns bad, but sometimes it's just how it goes, I guess.
Mama is now in treatment for her choco-cakey addiction and she's struggling like crazy with her first step, getting past the denial. She denies she took the cake and says that maybe the star witness had something to do with it, but it's easy to point fingers when you're already convicted by a jury of your children so, there you go.
