Wayne's heart swelled when he heard the people Justin had been able to talk to - it was great that he had so many people he could open up to without judgement. Wayne was glad Justin counted him in that group...that is, if he did. Wayne wasn't sure.
"Well, I'm always here to listen, now, too," he assured Justin. Even though they missed out on a wealth of shared life experiences, that wouldn't stop Wayne from empathizing.
"I missed you too, mate," he responded sincerely. And he had. Well - he had and hadn't. Wayne figured it was one of those things where you don't know what you're missing until you have it again.
