He sloshed back to the workroom to work on his task list on the computer, knowing that he’d be more likely to be changed promptly if there was not a backlog of work. He whittled it down nicely over the next 15 minutes, so that when Julie walked through the door, he only had a […]

  He seems to identify you as a mother figure. Apparently you’ve acted like the idealized mother he’s never had.
