A couple of weeks ago, we bought our son(M 19) a 100 Thieves Valorant jersey for Christmas. I(M 55) didn’t know why, 100T are clearly past their 2020 prime and honestly aren’t even that good anymore, but we bought it for him anyways since his grades are pretty good. We also stopped seeing it after a bit so I assumed he finally realized the mistake.
Well, I figured it out just yesterday. What happened was that his mom, my wife(F 53) finished making dinner for all of us, and called my son to the living room to eat. But he didn’t show up, we figured he was playing video games (He always plays Genshin Impact or this game called ZZZ or something) and was just finishing something up. But after 15 minutes and him saying nothing, I was furious and barged into his room.
What I saw still is shocking me, and I see it every time I close my eyes. He was wearing a black mask, the type you’d wear during the pandemic, long pink socks that went all the way up to his thighs. But the jersey was worse. It was was entirely white, every bit of color it had looked like it was painted over white.
When I had barged into his room, I let out a shriek as I saw him standing over it, hunched in a way that didn’t look natural. He turned around trying to tell me that it wasn't how it looked. But it was exactly how it seemed like. When he picked it up the fabric looked ruined and discolored in places, it made a heavy, wet sound when he lifted it off the ground.
We have now disowned him, and he has ran away to his friends house. We also want to throw the jersey away, but we are too disgusted to even remotely get near the damn thing. We don't know what to do with it, we want to call 911 but are afraid we might get fined if they think we are overreacting, or just simply laughed at and hung up on. We have barricaded his room with spare furniture just to stop the smell taking over the house.
