In My Desperate Time

I say calmly.

"Who are they?" The policeman immediately asks.

"No. I'm sure it's them."

Actually, I've always wanted to let go of those unpleasant memories. However, I can recognize the mother and son whatever they become.

I am also surprised to see them, but I am sure that my eyes don't deceive me.

He quickly picks it up and turns on the speakerphone as instructed by the policeman.
