"Are you sure you can stay here on your own?"
"Pete, stop being such a worrywart. I'll be fine. It's just for a night."
"But if it is just for a night, why do you have to stay here? Your house has a lot of rooms for you to use, you don't even have to see Matthew if you don't want to. I'll feel better if I know that you're just at home."
"What is the use of being away for a bit if I'll just stay at home? Besides, that house isn't mine. It's Matthew."
"Lil, please, I know that you and Matthew are having some misunderstanding but it won't get better if you're going to approach it in the way that you're doing right now."
