'No?'
'No. He was quite strong. Yes, he kept having the coughing fits, but then he'd be fine after a day or two in the Turkish baths.'
'I wish I knew what was happening, and I wish I could find out the truth for you. It can't be easy, not knowing.'
Aria sighed. 'It's been years, I guess I'm getting used to it.'

'I hope so. Come on, let's get a coffee while they work this one out.'
Declan grinned. 'Good idea.'

a hospital is what you'll find
But once where horses soothed
Now belongs to the shopping kind
Find a locket with hair
