April finished putting sandwiches on the table when Joel and Todd walked into the kitchen. When she’d gone out earlier to look for the boys, she’d overheard Joel and Todd talking. She’d quietly backed away and rushed inside the house. The last thing she heard was “Tell your mom.”

“Lunch is just sandwiches and cookies, but I’m told I make a mean sandwich.”

“I’d like that.” Joel nodded toward Todd.

Thanks, she mouthed.

After the blessing, the kids dug into their lunch. Todd reached for his sandwich but rested his hands by his plate.

“Todd, aren’t you hungry?”

He shook his head.

April leaned close and whispered, “Do you need to talk to me?”

He nodded.

“Joel, would you watch things for a few minutes?”

“Sure.”

Todd slipped from his chair and headed toward the office.

April followed.

“What’s happening?” Wes asked.

April didn’t hear Joel’s explanation, but followed her son into the office.

“I got to tell you something,” Todd began.

April closed the door and sat in her chair. “What do you need to tell me?”

Todd’s lips quivered. “It’s my fault that Mr. Moore got hurt.”
