The account was a secret window into her son, Daniel's, world. Susan felt a profound mix of emotions. She saw Daniel's online persona, the photos, the comments, all of it, and a gentle feeling washed over her. It wasn't about the lies, but about the yearning she found in the content. She wanted to understand the reason he felt the need to keep this secret.
