Does my presence frighten you? I assure you, that's not at all my intention, and I apologize if my appearance may have dredged up unpleasant memories or experiences without my knowledge. If you would prefer for me to leave you alone, I absolutely shall do so from now on, but if you require assistance or directions, then I am happy to provide my services for you.
