Langston waited a couple of seconds before the person on the other side flashed an OK hand gesture.

He couldn't help but smile, feeling like he was entrusted with an important mission, a sense of accomplishment bubbling within him.

Beside him, Abigail peered curiously at her brother, who alternated between smiling and staring at his phone. "Who are you texting?" she asked.

"Dad," Langston replied, his attention shifting back to her as he remembered the more pressing matter at hand. He pulled Abigail closer, adopting a serious demeanor. "Abigail, will you listen to your brother?" "Of course!"

"Then you need to promise me that you won't mention anything about Dad in front of Mom. If she asks, just say you don't know, or tell her to ask me."

Abigail furrowed her brows, puzzled. "Why? Why can't we talk to Mom about Dad?"

"Because Mom and Dad have been arguing lately, and it's better not to bring him up."

"Arguing?" Abigail's face scrunched up in concern. "Then we should make Dad come home more and stop them from fighting."

Langston patted her head. "You don't understand, but all you need to do is follow my instructions. Don't worry about the rest."
