''How can I be happy when she's not waking up, I can't do that;''
''But you can't stay this way forever,''
''I would, this is the only way I can live with myself. ''
Gwen sighed frustratingly; looking at him just living like a monk for Tiana made her want to pull at her hair; ''what if… what if she doesn't wake up… ''
