So… It might be a love story 😍
Maya might love him. And though he didn't properly know what love felt like, he might love her back. He would do anything to keep her happy. Wasn't that sufficient evidence that he had given in to the most dangerous type of sentimentality?

Platonic snuggles are awesome
They headed to the home theater together and she snuggled up against his side as soon as the movie was on. It was slightly unexpected but he had basically given her the greenlight to do such things.

Idk man.. you are really good at it from what I can tell.. again might be a “bad guy” cuz villan, but you aren’t. a bad guy.
He could make time. She needed him right now and he wasn't about to let her down so quickly after saying he wouldn't. That would be counterproductive. He knew he wasn't the best husband but he needed to try and be better.

This sounds like a four letter word I hear people experience… hmmmmm
Vincent laughed again. "I'm aware of that, thanks. What can I say? You have that effect on me. I spent my whole life being rational until I met you. It's been quite an adjustment going to the irrational side."

Not experiencing attraction is different than love.. you can love someone without attraction. It would be a platonic love but he could still love her. But its true it isn’t the same as being “in” love
"I can't give you what you want, Maya. I wish I could. I wish I was different but this is how I am. I can buy you anything…do whatever you ask of me…but I can't change the fact that I don't experience attraction.

This has been one of the most important things my husband has said to me before while having a flashback. Like it wouldn’t stop but having that calm reassuring voice and a hug to remind me that I am somewhere else and safe. That can really help
"It's okay, Maya," Vincent continued. "I've got you. You're safe."

So true.. ptsd is the worst. Years of therapy can definitely help though. It’s just sad how long it can take to recover. Some days I wonder if full recovery is a real possibility.
Trauma was a funny thing. You could suppress and suppress and suppress, thinking you were fine, and it would hit you like a wrecking ball out of nowhere.

Honestly he might be a “bad guy” but he isn’t a bad guy. He’s charming in his own ways. Even not knowing her well, from the beginning he desired to improve her life and remove suffering.
That had been Vincent's intention from the start. He was glad it worked. Originally he thought that he would hook someone with a high-spending lifestyle but after finding out her debt wasn't her own doing aside from student loans, he had wanted her to get used to having her every whim taken care of.

Vincent ignored her and continued working. This was fine. He was fine. He carried on until he needed a coffee refill and some food because if he didn't get up soon, his legs would go numb from disuse.

What if the robots could “eat” but really the food went to like some sort of bag inside then that could be emptied or flushed out later?
Vincent had no doubt she would. That was the only reason he wasn't more annoyed he had to go to this in place of the robots that would handle everything else so they could go sightseeing.
