Sarah closed her eyes for a brief second, then opened them, her gaze icy.
“No,” she said flatly. “Mom has things to do.”
A pause.
Then, Alex’s confused voice. “Huh? Mom said no.”
Arnold’s response was just as indifferent. “Uh–huh.”
Alex seemed unsettled. “Oh… okay. Then, Mom, bye.”
“Bye.”
The call ended, and Sarah stared at her phone, her mind strangely numb.
Back at the house, Alex placed the phone down and looked over at Arnold.
“Dad,” he said slowly, “Mom seems… angry.”
Arnold, who had been sipping his coffee, didn’t even glance up. “Hm.”
Alex tilted his head. He wasn’t sure why, but he suddenly had a bad feeling.
For the next few days, Sarah worked from home. She kept herself busy, answering emails, reviewing documents, and attending virtual meetings. It was easier this way–she didn’t have to leave the house, didn’t have to see anyone unless she chose to.
Her injuries from the accident had mostly healed, but she still felt an occasional dull ache in her wrist when she typed for too long.
Alex called her every day. His concern was evident in the way he asked about her well–being, but he never once mentioned coming over to see her.
Sarah wasn’t surprised. She had already guessed he wouldn’t.
But then, one evening, Alex’s voice came through the phone with an unusual request.
“Mom, can you take me to the hot springs?”
Sarah frowned slightly. “The hot springs?”

“It’ll be good for your health too,” Alex added quickly, as if sensing her hesitation.
She wasn’t particularly interested, but before she could refuse, Alex continued, “If you don’t want to, I’ll figure out a way to get to the outskirts myself.”
Sarah exhaled. He was baiting her. He knew very well she would never let him alone to a remote area.
“Fine,” she said, rubbing her forehead. “I’ll take you tonight.”
“Great! I’ll ask Dad to come too.”
Sarah’s fingers tightened around the phone, but she said nothing.
That night, Sarah picked Alex up, but Arnold was nowhere to be seen.
“Dad said he’d be late,” Alex explained as they drove.
But when they arrived at the hot spring estate, Arnold still hadn’t shown up.
Alex tried calling him several times, his brows furrowing deeper with every unanswered attempt. His shoulders slumped slightly as he pocketed his phone.
Sarah observed him quietly. Unlike Alex, she was perfectly calm.
