She nodded.
“You lied while I was asking you directly where you were.”
“I know, Mom.”
“You don’t get to scare me like that because you’re doing something kind.”

“Okay.”
“You lied to me.”

“I don’t think she was only coming for me.”
Maddie shot her a look.
“No, please don’t…”
I looked at my daughter.
“What does that mean?”
Nobody answered immediately.
