A Serious Talk
The following morning, over a quiet breakfast, Michael and Loretta revisited the troubling events. Michael laid it all out—the repeated bruises, the strange silences, the uneasy feeling he couldn’t shake. “Something’s off, Loretta. This just doesn’t add up,” he said as he stared down at his coffee.
Loretta leaned in, her concern growing with every word. “We can’t just keep hoping it will stop on its own,” she replied firmly. “We need to find out what’s really going on before it gets worse.” Both of them knew time was of the essence—and that doing nothing was no longer an option.
