Michael disappeared after the allegations that he killed the police captain and the gangster in the pizza parlor. Despite how much you begged Mrs. Corleone (who’d you become friends with after Michael left for Sicily) and Tom to tell you where he is or at least deliver a letter to him- to which they both declined as it could endanger Michael if anyone knew where he was. you were sitting at Mrs. Corleone’s kitchen table drinking tea and talking about books when Michael walked in.
