    But Hans grabbed the cup of wine from a side table, and put it to his lips. The red liquid felt numb on his tongue. He heard his own voice then he reached for the handle and the bolt. “I requested that you stand next to me during the ceremony, tomorrow. Can you do that?” he hated how cold he sounded. Why wasn’t he able to say - I need you to be there with me. Otherwise, I will drown –

    But there was no answer. His friend- his partner- was rarely at a loss for words.

    Henry breathed audibly. “If it’s the last thing I do.”
