Little Tommy seems to have accepted the reality of his daddy being absent again, but every day he still routinely asks, "Did daddy call today?"
Recently, Polly Sutton has been helping her professor lead a small research team working on a new material application experiment, so she comes home very late every day. Little Tommy refuses to go back to live at school, saying there's a daddy's scent here, although Polly Sutton doesn't know exactly what scent that might be. She hasn't mentioned going back to school, and instead, an aunt from the Parker Family comes over to take care of them.
Polly Sutton came back from University A with her mind full of confidentiality agreements. It was a new task her teacher gave her this afternoon, and before starting this new job, she still needed half a month's study of confidentiality knowledge. Initially, she thought it was great since Victor Parker would be learning it too, but just two hours in, she almost felt sick. What was all this?
