That blows.

[It's the first honest thing he can think of to say; it's as meaningless as I'm sorry, of course, it can't change anything, but it falls out of his mouth anyway. He could be more specific, apologize for seeing it in the opera hall, for his dad deciding some other girl was more important than his family, that he's had to learn to live with it. He could offer condolences, which he would mean, but not enough for a mother.

It's this last that brings him around to the response he does want to give, the question he does want to ask - or maybe just the piece that makes the least sense to him. He swallows, closes his eyes so he can focus on stringing together more words at a time.
