This may seem a cheap shot, but I'm genuinely interested: if you thought I was worried about Archie because his preoccupation was jeopardising his job, and hence his ability to pay rent, would you feel less left out than now, when you know that my primary concern is for his emotional well-being?
I do hope you're not really feeling like you're coming second. I have, after all, dropped everything on more than one occasion in the last week to see you. However, I'm know I'm not being the best company because I am worried about Archie, and I fear I've made the tension between my desire to stay at home so I can help and my desire to see you (for both our sakes) rather too apparent when making arrangements. I feel like I'm engaging in emotional blackmail at times, though I do my best not to. I am really sorry, and as the situation on the home front improves, as it seems to be, I hope that I can make things up to you.
