@tangledlights asked: “sorry, i was up all night.” - for Christopher?
Christopher lingered for a moment at the threshold of the Byer’s resident, a look of concern etched onto his face. It wasn’t unusual to encounter chaos in this house, yet Joyce apologized every time. He moved quietly to the kitchen table and emptied out the overflowing ashtray into the trash and picked up the dishes off the table. “It’s alright. I probably wouldn’t be able to sleep in your position,” he admitted. He stayed up for 72 hours straight when his boy went into the hospital.
Slipping his hands into his pockets, he paused in front of her. “I promise you, Will’s going to be alright. We’ve got specialists, not the kind that poke and prod either,” he explained.
