Breaking The Silence
For a brief moment, there was silence on the other end of the phone line. Although it was probably only a handful of seconds, it felt like it was hours to Teresa. Her heart hammered in her throat, and she wondered aloud if Bjorn had disconnected the phone call. Would he really go to such lengths? When it was his own son who was in trouble? It’s reasonable to assume that, even if he didn’t want anything to do with Timo, he would want to ensure that his flesh and blood were not in any discomfort. Bjorn finally responded with a response.

Teresa was on the verge of collapsing from relief when Bjorn informed her that she could use his insurance to cover Timothy’s appointment. It was Bjorn’s subsequent statement that she couldn’t believe, indicating that if anything went wrong, he would reimburse her for whatever Timo required. Teresa felt as if the weight of the world had been lifted off her shoulders, and she thanked Bjorn repeatedly. His response was dismissive, acknowledging that it was the least he could do after having failed miserably in his role as a father for so long.
