He thought she was getting angry.
Mommy, Im sorry, he whispered uneasily as he looked up at her.
Can I stay here for a few days more?
Why? Rachel asked straight and remained calm. She already had a vague guess on why Joey was adamant about spending more time here.
Her eyes fell on the dried bloodstains on his clothes.
Joey lowered his head and clasped his hands together on his stomach.
He then only stared at his toes without responding to her.
Joe, you Rachel was almost certain after seeing his reaction.
She knelt down and stared at him. After a brief pause, she asked the thing that worried her the most.
