And just how with patience he’d hear to any or all your tales? How easily he’d solve probably the most intricate problems? You’d know his arrival through the sheer knock around the door… you understood it had been him. You understood him by his body odor – that soothing one which always appeared to reassure you he was near. You understood him by his touch, his sounds, his gait …… you understood him by instinct.
