[Henry’s family is the epitome of nuclear. His mother is the stay at home sort, his father works, his responsibilities sometimes stretching into the weekend. She doesn’t spend all her days cooking and cleaning, of course, but his mom is probably the only entity in this household that knows what she’s doing in the kitchen.

Virginia smiles at Alec. My, he’s about as bad with meeting new people as Henry is; somehow, this thought is a comfort. It’s nice that her boy’s finally connected with someone else, even if it took him such a worrying amount of time.]
It’s nice to meet you, Alec. Henry’s told me plenty about you — I’ve never seen him so talkative when he does!
Mom! [oh my GOD]
What? It’s true! That’s nothing to be embarrassed about. I’m just happy for you and Alec both.
