Chapter 91 Clearing Things Up

When my mother came in, I was staring blankly at the ceiling. She placed the pumpkin soup she had made beside me and looked around my bedroom before asking, “Where’s Idris? Did he leave?” I shook my head. Feeling an emptiness in my stomach, I sat up and began sipping the soup on the chaise lounge. My mother seemed hesitant to speak as she watched me eat. I looked at her and said, “Mom, if you want to say something, just say it. Otherwise, you’ll feel uncomfortable holding it in.” After a pause, she said, “Since Moore came back from Old Manor, she’s been smashing things in her room. Just now, Little Sanchez mentioned that Idris went there. Is that true?” I nodded. My mother already knew all she needed to know, and I had nothing to hide from her. Her brows furrowed tightly. With a grim expression, she tried to control her temper and said to me, “Today at the Youngs, I thought I misunderstood Idris and Moore, but now…” She took a deep breath, suddenly stood up, and left my bedroom.
