Doctor Sweden perked at my request for a favor. I hardly asked for them, and when I did, everyone was often eager to grant my wish. The chance of me owing them was life changing. The brats thought they could request anything from me in return. Once it was in my jurisdiction, I would do anything. And, they bagged everything on that fact.
"A favor," Doctor Sweden cooed. "Interesting. I don't know you as the type to ask for anything."
I didn't. What we couldn't have freely, we took. That was the motto. Money could buy everything. Those who said it wasn't rich.
I got more comfortable in my chair. "On a regular day, I would not. But, today, I need it."
I could have hired a retired psychologist for the job. It would have made everything easier. However, Doctor Sweden was a close friend.
