The Fridge Hides My Brother, No One Dared Speak

Synopsis

My parents were getting divorced, and in court, they were fighting tooth and nail over who would get custody of me. My mom, Helen Brooks, sobbed uncontrollably, "Lucas should be with me. I'm his mother." My dad, William Cooper, said, his eyes red from crying, "I can give him a better life." The judge looked at me. "Lucas, who do you want to go with?" I looked at my mom, then at my dad. "I choose Dad." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was all settled now. Just then, I turned to the judge and asked seriously, "Can the boy in the fridge come with me, too?" The courtroom went dead silent. The judge dropped his pen, and Helen went pale as a sheet.
