Just a gift.

Fine. She'll accept it.

She didn't say that. Last time they spoke, he made things pretty clear, she's just surprised.

Is he sure he wants to give her a gift?

Then why is now any different?

When has that ever stopped them before?

Can he try?

Can he get away from you know who?

She just wanted to tell him she misses him.

What, can't she visit?

Sister.
