"Sir? It's Daniel. Sorry to call at dinner hour--I'm in the car right now, bringing Haven to stay overnight. I'm sorry about the short notice--I--We--...Father, can I... talk to you when I get there?"
Sergio had been setting the table when he received the call. Â His brow furrowed at his sonâs tone and he spoke gently, hoping to calm him.
âDanny, of course. Â You know weâre always open to you staying here. Â Weâre just setting up for dinner - Iâll get another place ready for you. Â Whatever it is, Iâm here for you. Â Please, tell me everything when youâre here.â
