A promise to reveal
He promised to reveal everything soon and implored me to give him a little more time. ‘I know it’s hard, but please believe me, Mom.
I’ll explain everything, just not today,’ he said, his eyes begging for my patience. ‘How much more time, Michael?
’ I asked, feeling the weight of uncertainty crushing me. ‘Just a bit longer,’ he responded. I nodded reluctantly, hoping his promise would soon turn into the answers I craved.
