Mom and Dad came home with an expected guest for lunch: Dr. Moore. The three of them came into the living room, surprised to see the three of us watching some spring baseball game. Probably even more surprised to see Zeke.

Dad frowned at him. "You're not skipping class, are you?"

"Not one that takes attendance." Zeke answered, more honest with his dad.

Mom glanced at Dr. Moore. "We didn't know he'd be here. And we definitely don't condone skipping classes."

Dr. Moore let out a small laugh. "Don't worry. I'm not the type to judge. Although I believe going to class has a lot of benefits; an occasional skip can do some good for young people's mental health." He smiled at Zeke. "How are you doing?"

"I'm in an adjustment period right now." Zeke told him.

Dr. Moore nodded. "Sounds like you're very self-aware." He looked to Mom and Dad. "I would like a moment with Jake alone, if you guys don't mind?"

The room quickly cleared.
