Lucas had run out of patience and did not want to continue the conversation. He thought that his father would just leave if he fell silent. To his bewilderment, Mr. Woods sat down on the couch and looked at him. "Come here. Let's talk."

"What's there to talk about? Just say what you have to say." Lucas walked over in annoyance.

"Your mother called me." Mr. Woods watched as his son approached him. "Did you block your mother's number? She said she can't reach you, and when she tried to call you using a different number, you won' pick up."

"Yeah, I blocked her number," Lucas admitted. "Is there anything else?"

Mr. Woods took a few deep breaths and said, "Your mother was in tears when she called me. She told me that—"

"I don't want to hear it." Lucas interrupted him. "If that's all, I'm going back to my room."

She told me that you two have been arguing a lot, and you won't listen to her. She felt like she was no longer capable of educating you, and she only made such a decision because she didn't want you to go down the wrong path. If she had tried to discuss this with you, you wouldn't have listened and might have even run away from home."

"She sure knows me," Lucas said sarcastically.
