What should I do when he wants to take a break? (Please read the context)?

He has been going through a lot with work and his family, we have been dating for 2 years and he seems depressed and very stresses lately, we only went out twice in the past 2 months and we argued a couple of times because I was tired of him being so distant.
when I saw him last week, I realized how he is under pressure both because of work and a family issue. I told him he doesn’t need to worry about meeting up with me and we can just talk on the phone for a while until he sort things out. All was OK until last night when he called me and I could hear him argue with his father at the same time. He apologized and said he will call me back. But he didn’t, he instead messaged me and said, can I choose to be alone for a while? I said of course, you should take care of yourself first. But I asked him to call me so we can talk before we take a break. He hasn’t called yet. And at this point I’m not even sure what I want to or should say to him. We love each other very much and this situation is totally weird to me, I’m absolutely confused.
