'Tsk, I cannot see Daniel for the second day. I thought life would get much better once I moved in with him and got to live with him. But so far, he feels even more distant than he usually does. Was this a mistake?'
Sharon cursed as she picked up some food, only to drop it on her plate seconds later. She continued to do this until her appetite ran out, and she pushed the food away from her plate with a disappointed expression.
James noticed this, and he looked worried for his mother.
She felt distant the past few days, making him want to ask what happened.
But for whatever reason, these words would not come out of his mouth, no matter how much he tried to. Every time he opened his mouth, his throat felt clogged, almost as if someone was squeezing it to prevent any sound from escaping him.
It felt frustrating, and it made James's mood drop as well.
