I've made it a(n) __5__ to greet him with a “Good morning” each day and most importantly, __6__ it. Equally __7__ is a genuine smile that shows, “It's good to see you. I'm glad you're working today.”

But later I found him in low __10__. My morning greetings didn't __11__. “Come on. It can't be that bad. Your time's coming.” I comforted him and left. __12__ those words of assurance didn't __13__ me.
