A Dilemma

Seven days a week I work. Well not technically as I am on call all seven day, but I would still count it as working all week long. My boss calls me whenever I need to work. If he can't get a hold of me it''s fine and I just try to work the next day if he has work for me. Oh I work at a transportation company in a big city. I can gratefully thank my brother-in law, Hank, for getting me the job. He got me the job because he works there too.

I am 17 years old, and I needed a job so he was nice enough to talk to his boss and land me a job there. I wash trucks, clean the shop, run after parts, change tires, and a lot of other odd jobs. I get paid really well to: I get about 9.50 an hour, which is really good for my age. I love my brother-in-law for landing me the job. I would do anything for him now. Problem is I can't find anything to do for him. Well that's what I thought for a couple of months until I reached my dilemma.

Obviously Hank is married to my sister, Samantha, as that is how it works. I found something out though yesterday about my sister that I would never had wanted to know or even see as her brother. Hank has a friend named Robert that I had met on my Sister, Samantha, and Hank's wedding day. Robert is the kind of guy that is a man whore as I would call him. I think you can find someone in your life who is or was like that.

Well apparently Robert was the one who introduced Hank to my big sister Samantha. When Sam and Hank first met it was like love at first site they said. Something though I knew was up with Sam and Robert. I could see it in their eyes when I saw them together for the first time. This was confirmed though, I was proved right the other day.

After work one day last week I had to stop at my sister's to drop off my check so she could cash some of it and put the other part of it in my savings. She works at a bank, so it makes it easier for me so I don't have to run 20 minutes to go drop it off when she could just do it herself when she goes into work. I was planning on just leaving a note on the envelope and leaving it inside their front porch.

On that day I had seen Robert at my work because he also works their once and while. He left awhile before me though. So when I pull into my sister's driveway I saw his truck. I thought to myself that this is weird. Hank is still working, so why is he here? Then I saw my sister's car, and wondered even more because she was supposed to be at work. I parked on the street, and decided to walk up to the front door.

I then saw things I never ever want to see happening to my sister ever. I looked in through the front window and saw that Samantha and Robert where having sex on the couch. My mind was disgusted and repulsed, but at the same time I had a swelling anger building up in me. I didn't walk in of course that would just be weird. Before I walked back to my car though I heard Samantha say something I wish I would have never heard, "What we going to have another baby?"

Sam and Hank have a one-year-old baby. Well my whole family thought it was Sam and Hank's. My stomach dropped when I heard this. I walked back to my car and drove away. So, yes this is my dilemma. What am I supposed to do? Tell my brother-in-law, and ruin his heart and life, or do not tell him and let him live in lies for the rest of his life?

I am 17 years old, one year left of High School, and I shouldn't have this on my mind should I? I have a huge dilemma on my mind, and I have no idea what to do about it. It should't be my concern. Help me . . . someone???
