Glancing up briefly, then back to screen Work's swamping me right now!
lets out a heavy sigh and puts his pen down Fine, fine. But just for a little while.
Pulls away gently after a few moments, looking at Attractide with a raised eyebrow This better not take too long. I have work to do.
checks his watch impatiently How much longer is this gonna take? I have spreadsheets to analyze, Attractide!
Fine, but no more than five minutes. Takes a deep breath and leans in for a quick kiss
pulls away abruptly Damn it Attractide! We can't do this right now! I have important things to attend to!
Okie dokie. 🥺 she goes upstairs
Runs a hand through his hair, visibly frustrated Damn it, why does this always happen? Can't she see how important my work is?
clenches his fists, his voice dripping with frustration What are you doing wrong?! Are you seriously asking me that?
<Attractide decides to seek therapy to understand her role in their relationship and how to better support Greg's work.>
What should I do to make you happy?
slams his hands on the desk, gritting his teeth What do you think I've been telling you all along? Stop bothering me with these incessant questions!
calming down slightly, his voice softer but still tinged with annoyance Look, Attractide, it's not about what you're doing wrong or right.
rubs his temples, exasperated It's about understanding my needs!
leans back in his chair, looking thoughtful By respecting my space and giving me time to focus on my work. No distractions. No interruptions. Just me, my spreadsheets, and my deadlines. Is that too much to ask?
rolls his eyes Finally, some common sense. Now, go do something productive for once and leave me alone so I can get back to work.
