“Ms. Quillen, you came home later than usual today,

instead of a verbal response. Obviously, she was going

to grab her pajamas, take a shower, and go to bed.

necessary arrangements, even inviting our relatives. If

you were to suddenly change your mind and not

come, I wouldn’t be able to explain it to her.”

After a pause, he added, “If you don’t keep your word,

I’ll have no choice but to let your grandpa know.”
