As Jon got up to refill Linda’s plate, he heard Mikey ask.
“So, Mom, how was your day?”
“It was fine thanks, Mikey.”
"If you'd like, I can help you with your helpwork," he offered Linda.
That stunned Jon and he dropped the plate on the counter with a bang...fortunately not breaking.
“Are you ok Jon?” He heard Mikey ask. Jon turned around.
“Yeah, I’m fine.” He lied. “I just need some air.” He headed outside through the back door before Mikey could respond.
After a few moments, he tried to work things out. So his Mom was acting oddly thinking that she went to school...and Mikey was offering to help her with her homework? Mikey struggled with his homework.
“I need to call Karyn.” He thought to himself. Luckily his phone was in his pocket, so he took it out and dialed her number. Unfortunately, though, she didn’t answer.
As Jon hung up, Mikey came out to see him.
He put an arm around Jon.
“Are you ok?” He asked Jon concerned.
