Dante positioned his head near the doorknob with the necktie and started looping one end around his neck.
"I got no more reason to live if you're not in it." He sobbed.

"I'm doing you a favor, Evangeline!" He continued shouting and crying at the same time. His face was dripping wet with snot and tears.
"Don't do this, Dante!"
