So what ? Why does he and Harley butt in on the time Richie was going to spend with his brother ? Why doesn't their mother or the manipulative bastard tell them Richie wants to spend time with Andrew, and they can go to the amusement park together on another day? And Gabe is a useless, bigoted friend who just want to set up Richie with Freddy, so he can keep his distance from the gay boy.
As I predicted, Richie is being worn down, but at least he's still living with his new parents. But I bet he'll end up back with his siblings and 'reconciled' with the sperm donor. Please warn me before it gets that far, so I can stop reading.
