"Why are you looking at me like that?" Gael asked as he buttoned his shirt and saw Angela glaring at him.
"Because I don't understand why you didn't tell me."
He sighed. "I told you—"
"And now you don't even want me to go with you?"
Lowering his hands, he strode towards her and took her hands in his to calm her down but the furrowing of her brows did not diminish. He softened his words as he told her, "Look. Angel… I've been there with my mother the whole time she dealt with…the cancer. I know how it feels to sit and wait helplessly while she took her treatments. I just don't want you to go through the unnecessary worry when it's only an exam. It's going to be fine."
