Collier Landry

It was like a diamond that slid back and forth in a shaft. It was a diamond slide ring. And, you know, I played with the radio control car and then I packed it up and my father and I were leaving and I get in his truck and I look through the windshield and he's making out with her. And I'd never seen that before. And I'm like, oh man.

And so my father gets in the car and we're driving home and he goes, okay, bumper, which is my nickname as a kid. He says, I need you to do me a favor. I need you to tell mommy that I took you to my office and I gave you the radio control cars as a present for getting good grades this year. Don't tell her about Sherry. Don't tell her. And I was just like, okay.

And of course I'm terrified of my father. So I'm not going to say anything. You know, but I'm also feeling like, okay, because I grew up and I always, I think everyone who grows up with their childhood, like this is a normal childhood, right? Like this is a normal childhood. And so I just think, okay, this is what it is. And then to see that.

my father kissing another woman, I'm thinking back to myself, like I had friends whose fathers cheated on their mothers. And so I started thinking, okay, this is, um, this is okay. Hold on. Like I'm now experiencing what my friends have told me about when their parents got a divorce.

11-year-old Collier had just witnessed something that he knew was very wrong. But his father, the man that terrified him, told him not to say anything about it. So Collier was torn. Later that night, he and his parents would go out to a Father's Day dinner as if nothing happened. But the thought of his dad kissing another woman continued to haunt him.

And eventually, Collier knew he had to tell his mother the truth. One day, while he was playing with his remote control car in the driveway, he said he was overcome with guilt. So he went inside and called his mom over to finally tell her what he saw.

I come in and I asked my mother to sit down. I said, mommy, I have to tell you something. And I started telling her about Sherry and how I saw him kiss her and about the ring and how I met Sherry a couple of months earlier at the memorial day and this whole thing. And I said, I think he's having an affair. I don't know. I saw him kiss her and she said, well, thank you for being honest with me.
