#Chapter 168: One Big Happy Family

Almara’s Pov Author and I have been seeing Maurice for just over a month now and I got to hand it to her, she’s good. I think what I love most about Maurice is that I don’t know anything about her personally. I don’t know her opinions, much about her hobbies or interests, her political stance, or even much about her own family. I know that might sound strange, but the less I know about her the more Author and I are illuminated through the conversation. No matter what I say, she mirrors what I’m feeling and not what she’s feeling and I appreciate that. Maurice doesn’t ever flat out tell us what she’s thinking, she prefers a more discovery approach. It’s nice to actually be heard and understood. It’s weird. It’s like I want to send her a Christmas card, but I know this is also just her job. One thing I can’t quite seem to understand at the moment is why Maurice keeps pulling the conversation back to Grace. She’s taken an interest in her and I don’t know why- I mean she’s adorable
