“Where’d you get that from?” Santos asks.
“The food? It’s from Doctor Robby,” Dennis says without thinking. “Oh, wait. I meant- the food’s from Chau’s. We- I got it on the walk home.”

Summary
Hal Emmerich is a mobility aid engineer struggling with a balancing act of committing to his job and his adopted daughter, Sunny Emmerich. In between leading important projects and raising a young girl, little time remains for Hal to put himself out there and find a partner. He's abandoned the idea entirely; tall walls have been built around his heart, the key only gifted to his daughter. But... that man he can't stop seeing around town keeps managing to get involved in his life, whether Hal wants it or not. And those walls are tall, but quite thin.
