He thinks of you as his father.

[onlyoneof]

What today? After a whole discussion in which it was clear you didn't?

Are you saving any other low blows?

[skepticalities]

No, I just— I never noticed. I didn't. But when I think back, you and him— it's there.

. . . I'll go. Sorry.

[onlyoneof]

I'm not saying any of this to hurt you, Lincoln. I just want to be clear on where we're standing.

[skepticalities]

I know. I appreciate your honesty.

[onlyoneof]

And I'd appreciate it if you stopped trying to get to me emotionally.

[skepticalities]

Which is why I'll just . . . go.

[onlyoneof]

I'll be back before dusk.

[skepticalities]

It's fine.

. . . thanks.

[eats quickly, popping the painkillers.]

[onlyoneof]

Sorry about earlier. I know you weren't trying to upset me.

[skepticalities]

I was being passive aggressive, too. I was exhausted and upset.

[onlyoneof]

Are you feeling better?

[skepticalities]

[shrugs his shoulders, picking at the remainder of his food.]

A bit. I'm just . . . sad, I guess.

[onlyoneof]

I'm here... and I'll be here for as long as I can.

[skepticalities]

I don't understand why we can't have that for as long as we can . . . at least, that was what I was trying to say earlier.
