When lunch ends, and surprisingly, Saphira and Christopher have had lunch, Sophia takes Saphira aside and asks:
- Baby, are you sure you want to go back to Houston?
- I don't know. I need to think. – She looked Sophia in the eyes – I wanted… I mean… I wanted to believe in Christopher. Seeing him only made me realize how much I love him, but…
- Why does there have to be a “but”? I know my brother. I never imagined seeing him declare himself to anyone, much less in front of our parents. He was an i***t, I know. In fact, I was wondering who the i***t was to give him a couple of slaps... but now... I know he loves you, Saphira, and I know you love him. I also know that you have suffered a lot during the last year, but… You made the decision to have surgery for him. I know it was for him.
