Mom?

Yes, Willow?

I take a bite out of my pizza.

How do you explain to someone why you hurt them?


You don't.

You apologize—

Then tell them how you feel and—

You are honest about your emotions.


Even if the reason is a really good reason?

My mother frowns and wipes her mouth. 

Are you talking about Lee?

No, I lied to this boy in school.


He's furious and—

I want to make amends.

It sounds like you need to apologize—

And leave it at that.
