Re: Call: Sam & Cris
Baby, listen to me—we can light some candles, huh? But I want you to know, whatever happens, it's gonna be okay. I told you before, you're a lot more resilient than you think. I know it was hard to get out here, but you did it, huh? You lasted a helluva lot longer than I ever woulda. Y—y—think back halfa year—look how much better you're doin' now, look how far you've come. Even just in figurin' out how you feel. And I know—that don't stop you bein' afraid—you got all this stuff runnin' through your head still, and I get that, fears, alla that. Sometimes that stuff drowns everything else out and you can't see nothin' else, feel nothin' else. But, you're still here, ain't you? Me too. After everything, we're still here. And now I'm here with you, and even if you feel like you're drownin' in all the bad 'what-ifs' and worst-case scenarios, I got my hand in yours and I ain't lettin' you drown. I can't say it's gonna be easy or it's gonna be perfect, lo sé. But, you know I couldn't care less 'bout easy or perfect. [Thinking.]—If you wanna, we can go to the doctor, and I field what they gotta say. I know it can be a lot and overwhelmin'. If we go, they can tell me. And when you wanna know, I can tell you.
