I worry about you sometimes, you know,” he said, his tone more affectionate.I really didn’t know how to respond. On one hand, I appreciated his concern, but on the other, I felt like I needed to distance myself and focus on my work, especially given the mood I’d been in for the past month.“Thanks, Mark, but I’m fine. Now, if you don’t mind, I need to get on with my work,” I said firmly, hoping it would push him out of my mind. After a few long seconds, she finally nodded. “Okay, I’ll go.
