“ I keep people alive every day, and right now, the person I’m trying to keep alive is you. Will you let me? ”

If the Mob was after you, the last thing you felt was alive. If the Mob was after you, it was only a matter of time before you were as dead as a doorknob. But standing outside in the middle of winter, with the world in a coma, she felt alive.
She could forgive him for missing their dinner date, but she would never forgive him for dying.
