It turns out that he's not the only one who notices. Mr L noticed too.
I got a couple of presents from Mr L for Christmas, but one of them was more significant than the others.
He gave me a collar. His collar. For me to wear for him.
I'm happy. And proud.
It's a first for me.
When I was childishly feeling up the packages, trying to guess what was inside, I felt the supple shape of it, the buckle, and thought it might be that. I thought it and then I tried to suppress the thought straight away because I didn't want to be disappointed, didn't want to dare hope. I didn't want to speculate and be wrong.
I hope I do him proud. I'm looking forward to next year.
Congratulations :)
