After we hung up, Daniel sent a message.
“Mom, can I come tomorrow?”
I waited until morning before answering.
“Come after lunch.”
He arrived looking exhausted.
“I’m sorry, Mom.”
I let him sit at the kitchen table.
“Tell me what you’re sorry for.”
“For asking you not to come.”
“Why did you do it?”
“I thought keeping Jessica happy would make everything easier.”
“For whom?”
He stared into his coffee.
