Summary
His brain plays back the conversation he had earlier with Christopher’s teacher. How she thought he was Chris’ father. How she kept referring to him as Christopher’s parent. How it made him feel bad because he wasn’t, and it was like he was unrightfully taking a title that belonged to Eddie. Even if it was just one teacher at school.
He feels guilty that he didn’t correct her.
At first he thought it was because he didn’t want to embarrass her, didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable. But he quickly realized it's probably because he doesn't really mind being seen as Chris’ father. Which felt unfair to Eddie-his actual father- and to Christopher. Because Buck has no right to be considered as Christopher’s parent. Has no right to see Chris– to love him like a son.
(or, four times buck gets mistaken for christopher’s father and the one time he actually is)
