No, of course it wasn't, but how could ever think of burdening her with any of that?

[color=778899]"Yeah, I, uhh... I'm just tired. I got caught up with an... incident at the school last night is all. I took care of it, but it took a lot out of me.

Vera certainly hadn't said anything to him yet. In many ways, Vera wasn't the same person she'd been before Alex's coma. How would she react to this? Her animosity wasn't directed at Alex, so he shouldn't have been too worried, but... He wasn't sure he was ready to have to put himself between the two in the worst case scenario.
