[I need your help]

I saw the typing... icon at the top right of the screen and recalled my message. The chat was quiet for a couple of seconds before his message came in.

[What's wrong?]

I carefully considered what to say before deciding to be vague

[Just some family problems]

He responded almost instantly

[That person again?]

I sighed softly. There was no use being tight lipped about it anymore but I didn't want him to get involved now. Not with his company being in such a critical time.
