Congratulations on your face and talents ⋙ Harry Lloyd
They’ll be staying in my guestroom. This is the first time they’ll be coming to Murphy. I’m afraid what their reaction to the magic will be, especially since Mom has always been so against it and anything related to Murphy. She never told me if she knew what type of elemental she is. I wonder if Dad is one too.

I’m… better. You and Jerry have made a world of difference.
Thank you. And please don’t say it’s not a problem. Just, thank you.
I’m glad to hear that. It does get easier.

It’s not… You’re welcome.
I’m guessing my days as a night owl are just beginning.
So, er, how are you doing, Gil?
I’ll make sure to schedule you for the evening shifts then. haha.

I’m relatively well. Getting ready to enjoy my day off tomorrow. How about you?
Jerry: You’re good. I’ve just had a lot of work. :)
Gilbert: Oh, good! Maybe we can hangout again this week?
Does Tuesday night work for you?

Yes, as long as going after the store closes is alright with you.
Jerry: Since when?
Jerry: Oh. Yeah we’re fine.
Gilbert: Good! I didn’t mean to offend you. I was just caught by surprise.
Gilbert: I’m sorry. I must have seemed extremely rude.
I’ll make sure to look into them more. Thanks again for the books, and for the job.
If you’ll allow me, I’d like to take you out to dinner sometime this week. My small way of thanks.

Of course I’d allow you, but you know you don’t have to. It was my pleasure to help.
Jerry: Yeah. Been busy.
Gilbert: Oh, alright. I just wanted to check if things were alright between us. I haven’t spoken to you since. Well, you know.
