Benny's brows furrowed with concern as he watched Lola's actions and behavior before lifting in shock at Lola's announcement that Kenzie had dumped her. "What?" Was Lola serious? Yes, you idiot! She was serious! She was sitting in front of him about to cry her eyes out. Suddenly he felt awful for dumping Nora. But that was another story.
He scoffed and set his drink down, and reached across the table to take ahold of her hand that was waving around. He gave it a gentle squeeze, "I don't know what to tell you, Baby. I'm sorry." He felt bad for Lola. He didn't like seeing her so upset. He didn't like seeing anyone upset! Especially those he cared about.
"It wasn't because of me, was it? And.. and if it makes you feel any better, when I broke it off with Nora-- I missed what? at least two weeks? Not all at once.. but.. yeah." He wasn't going to tell her not to cry. It was okay to cry. In some cases, it helped.
