He did seem more mad at me than you. So you're probably right.

Don’t let it get to you.

Easy for the golden child to say.

[ That's unfair. Terry knows it is. He fiddles with the phone a minute before he starts typing again.]

I'm sorry. It's just hard not to take this stuff personally sometimes.

Whoa. Who taught you that one?

[ he's offended, but mostly impressed that Terry knows to call him that. he almost laughs, but when the apology comes, his humoured is tempered. ]

It's alright. I get it. Wait till he tries benching you for something that's not your fault.

He can't bench me. He doesn't have anyone else to boss around.

[ first question ignored and noted, Terry. ]

Terry, don't reduce yourself to that. You're way more to him than just someone to boss around.

[ He learned it from the best. ]

I know.

He's been spying on me and I didn't realize it. It's a lot.

[ sigh. ]

It is a lot. Believe me, Terry, I know how you feel.

Just try to remember that everything that happened up to this point was still real. He still trained you and tried to help you out there the best way he could.

[ alright so that’s very generous but— ]

He’s not perfect. Despite what he wants you to believe.
