I pressed him for details, leaning forward in my chair. ‘Michael, I need to know what’s going on. Please, just tell me the truth,’ I pleaded.
He shook his head slightly and sighed. ‘Mom, I promise I’ll explain everything soon. Right now isn’t the best time,’ he said, his voice tinged with frustration.
I watched him, feeling both enraged and worried as he evaded my questions.
