”That might be the case. Then, what about the first one?” Stephan asked holding a cigar in his right hand, and the letter in his left.

”Can't we take him with us?”

”Did you notice how heavy he is?”

”Amelia, I don't get it. You were never like this! How can you live our son here alone and go there? If you want to go, then go, I'm not going.

”Amelia Holman speaking. Can I speak to Mr. Chris please?”

”Chris speaking. Mam, do I know you?”

”You don't know me, but you definitely know my son.”
