" Come with me, Elliot. I have wanted to ask you for weeks, but I have waited, out of fear and doubt and the belief that it’s nothing but my own selfishness that wants you with me. I wrestled with this, and chance after chance passed me by. I can’t afford to lose this one.

Please accept. This time, please accept.

And please believe that no matter what, I am, ever,
Your
Kai "
