Will前女友携现男友来告知Will他俩的婚迅，Will淡定而冷漠的祝福了他们。
小路发现Will摔碎了他的相框，她买了工具试图去修好，被will撞了个正着。
小路：我只是想帮你把相框修好。
Will：谁让你修的？
小路：我只是想帮忙。
Will：摔破这些相框不是意外，只是因为我不想看见它们，不要你们每个人都觉得他们知道我要什么。
小路：我又不傻，我不是想修复你前女友的照片，我只是想让你感觉好一些。
Will：亲，你爱干啥干啥去吧。
小路：你这个笨蛋，你对你朋友冷淡，这是他们应得的，但我只是做好我的工作而已。我是你妈妈请来的，不是你，我做好这个工作不是因为想改变你的生活，仅仅是因为我需要钱。
被吼的一脸懵的Will，“好的好的，你把所有照片都收起来吧。”
“I thought I’d see if I could fix any of these frames,” I said,holding one up.
I tried to look cheerful.
“Why?”
I blinked.
“Well...I think some of these can be saved. I brought some wood glue with me, if you’re happy for me to have to go at them. Or if you want to replace them I can pop into town during my lunch break and see if I can find some more. Or we could both go, if you fancied a trip out...”
“Who told you to start fixing them?”
“I...I was just trying to help.”
“You wanted to fix what I did yesterday.”
“I--”
“Do you know what,Louisa? It would be nice--just for once--if someone paid attention to what I wanted. Me smashing those photographs was not an accident. It was not an attempt at radical interior design. It was because I actually don’t want to look at them.”
I got to my feet.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t think that-”
“You thought you knew best. Everyone thinks they know what I need. Let’s put the bloody photos back together. Give the poor invalid something to look at. I don’t want to have these bloody pictures staring at me every time I’m stuck in my bed until someone comes and bloody well gets me out again. Okay? Do you think you can get your head around that?”
I swallowed.
“I wasn’t going to fix the one of Alicia(Will前女友)--I’m not that stupid... I just thought that in a while you might feel--”
“Oh,Christ...”He turned away from me,his voice scathing.
“Spare me the psychological therapy. Just go and read your bloody gossip magazines or whatever it is you do whatever it is you do when you’re not making tea.”
My cheeks were aflame.
I watched him manoeuvre in the narrow hallway, and my voice emerged even before I knew what I was doing.
“You don’t have to behave like an arse.”
The words rang out in the still air.
The wheelchair stopped.
There was a long pause, and then he reversed and turned slowly, so that he was facing me, his hand on the little joystick.
“What?”
I faced him, my heart thumping.
“Your friends got the shitty treatment. Fine. They probably deserved it . But I’m just here day after day trying to do the best job I can. So I would really appreciate it if you didn’t make my life as unpleasant as you do everyone else’s.”
Will’s eyes widened a little.
There was a beat before he spoke again.
“And what if I told you I didn’t want you here?”
“I’m not employed by you. I’m employed by your mother. And unless she tells me she doesn’t want me here any more I’m staying. Not because I particularly care about you,or like this stupid job or want to change your life one way or another,but because I need the money.Okey? I really need the money.”
