The Plan revealed

I closed the door on Mr. Lindholm with a heavy heart and turned to face Mikey. His eyes showed confusion as he said, "I thought we were going to include him in our plans." His voice was soft, yet laced with concern. I paused for a moment, feeling a swirl of emotions inside me. The thought of involving Mr. Lindholm in everything was weighing me down. I shook my head slowly, trying to steady my racing thoughts. "I can't think about that right now," I replied firmly. "Including Mr. Lindholm in our plans is going to be too complicated for me, and I'm not sure I'm in the right mental state for it."
