Not wanting to upset Cecilia further, Edwin offered her a tissue. She declined, and he hesitated before suggesting, “Should | get dad to comfort you?” Cecilia's reaction was a mix of embarrassment and mild irritation.
Edwin, with a light nudge, directed his sister, “Fetch dad, let him know mom's upset.”
