[Kaylee, Jilly, and Rory]
I don't even know where to begin. You probably don't even want to speak to me, right now, all things considered, and I wouldn't blame you one bit. I said things I had absolutely no right to say -- and they were all things I could never, ever truly mean. ... I .... [SIGH] Yes, I have moments when I get frustrated with some of the smaller shortcomings of people, and I get a little short on patience, but ...
... But I would never consider you worthless, ever. You're very, very dear friends to me, for all the reasons I forgot and flagrantly shoved aside, over the last few days. You're brilliant, and adaptable, and the depth of your caring for others, no matter what ... it makes you very precious, even more so in a place like this.
I'll be outside, for a little while, getting some air, and clearing my head, if any of you feel gracious and forgiving enough to speak with me.
