He had this eloquent and confident way of speaking but being someone's shoulder to cry on wasn't at the top of what makes someone a good person. But yeah, I let him cook and finagle his way to everyone else's mind to see how far he'd take it before I decide whether to waste his efforts or not.
However, Kaley was already giving me this look of, "Why aren't you doing anything?" but it took her a second to understand my intentions.
