Benny looked shocked. He sighed and leaned back against the wall. "Thanks, that's all I wanted, you know." He took a second before glancing over, "Your sister said you were having a hard time and I should be nicer to you.

He pointed to her hand, "eat up. You can't feel much worse, so maybe it'll help you start to feel better. Or you can talk, I'm not in a rush."
