[ (him "of all people" because caspar has many other friends. not many that would throw their futures into the wind like this, yes, but his point still stands.) ]
I know that you care a lot about me. I see that every day we're together. [ Under the blanket, he wrings his hands together. ] But I feel like I haven't been honest with you.
