By the time Giovani was done talking, my coffee was gone, but I was exhausted. Just hearing everything he had gone through made me feel as if I had been there. I got up from my seat at the table and walked over to him, placing my hand on his cheek gently so I wouldn’t hurt him.
“I’m so glad you made it,” I told him softly.
Everyone else around the table murmured noises indicating they agreed with me. Alessandro stood up and stretched, leading everyone else to get up as well. I had no idea how long we had been listening to Gio, but I could tell everyone was beat.
“Alright, I need to take a shower,” Alessandro announced.
Becca pulled him into a tight hug before he could get away.
“We’re going to head back in the morning,” James let everyone know. “But don’t forget we’re just a phone call away.”
