Re: Table 4
"I will. I didn't want to miss the wedding, or dinner really, but time is not a luxury. I will see the club later and I can pout prettily there." It was something Patrick had said to him awhile back when he showed up to hide out. He remembered odd things like that.
"Maybe there is. He is still the person he will be later." He was trying to be encouraging in his own way, but he hadn't met Marcus yet at this age so it was hard to say.
One thing he couldn't do was ask to be reassigned. "No, I'll stay. That's what I was chosen for. I would just hear that I failed something else, or that I complained too much, or whatever. I'm going to finish this, and I'm great on a broom. I just do my job."
