"How are you holding up?" Julianna asked trying her best to soothe him.

"Why did you stop him?" Rafael asked, while he got the chance.

"Because...I believe in.......second chances." He managed to say.

"Afraid so." He confirmed.

"This is ridiculous. He cannot wait that long!" She stated and stood up.
