The lie nobody found out: carrying a secret, sentence 3

At first he felt clever, then sick whenever money came up, especially when Mum said "we can't afford it"; getting away with it felt worse than being caught, because he carried it alone, and the weight did not fade by itself.

Who acts: Leo, money, Mum, we, getting, weight · What happens: feel, come up, say, not afford, get away, catch · To what, where: money · Speech: someone speaks here
