*making no attempt to hide the exhaustion(/exasperation?) he feels* I only got here yesterday and I'm only staying for three days. I hope your father won't mind if I don't look him up. I'm pretty much working twenty-hour days while I'm here.
You avoiding me?
*stiffly* No more than I'm avoiding anyone else. No, Sir. I've just been busy. *pauses a moment while he is asked to lean forward while Marcie(?) peels down the back of his robe to re-apply cover-up to a point between his shoulder blades* How have you been?
