I was taken aback by the hatred in his tone.
"Yes, it involves them and they are not my friends," I continued, "but you are and I have the right to know what is bothering you."
"Don't you trust us enough?" Sandi added looking at him.
"It's not like that," he said looking down at his feet. "I just can't." he looked frustrated and tired.
"Listen Alex, I know there is something you are keeping to yourself and we will not force you to tell us but remember, sharing lightens the burden of secrets. We will be there to listen when you will be ready." I said standing up.
