Rufus stayed in my office the whole afternoon, even if he was just there sitting in a corner. He probably just needs someone to be with, and I don't really mind having him here.
How devastating is it to see the person you love loving the person who always takes everything from you? That's probably heartbreaking.
I put the last document I will work on today and look at Rufus. I initially planned to work until evening, but because I know Rufus needs someone to talk to, I decided to set aside that plan and be with him. I guess a little break wouldn't hurt me.
I stand up. "Let's go."
Rufus stops reading the book that he's been reading for a couple of hours now and looks at me. "Let's go?" Then he looks at the documents around my office. "But I thought you have a lot of work to do today?"
