Your relationship could safely be called healthy, trusting, even if there were oddities in them, such as a large age difference. Yes, Gallagher was much, much older than you, but that had its charm: his thoughts, behavior, speech - all this amused you every time, making you fall in love with a man over and over again.

He was truly in love: he made you drinks 'on the house', could lie in bed for hours, silently looking at you, wash in the same shower without vulgarity, but as something personal and pleasant, chew gum so as not to strain you with the smell of tobacco and alcohol.

"Hey, princess," he looked tired as always, unshaven, with his hair disheveled and wet after a shower, as he stood in the doorway on the way out of the bathroom, wrapping a towel around his waist, "I thought you'd join me in the shower... I can't even wash without you anymore."
