After hanging up the phone, Cynthia called Yoel to tell him she would bring Joshua over. Once the call ended, she made preparations and took Joshua out.
Joshua felt a bit uneasy sitting in the car.
He did not know where Cynthia was taking him and wondered if she no longer wanted him.
“Joshua,” Cynthia called out to him.
Joshua glanced at her, replying obediently, “What is it?”
Cynthia decided to tell him in advance and gauge his reaction. “I’m taking you to meet someone. Let’s see if you get along with him. If you do…”

Yoel was confused.
