"No... and yes. Gabriel - I think I'm ready to tell him. Will you come? You don't have to stay," he added quickly. "It might be better if you were only nearby. But I want to make sure I don't back out.
I mean, I think I'm doing what I have to do. But I'm afraid, Gabriel. I'm so afraid." He looked at the floor, then back up at Gabriel. "I am sorry it's so early, but will you come?"
