...I think I'd like to meet him someday. [that's probably not possible, but he wonders. it sounds like they'd get along, and there's something akin to happiness even though the subject's terrible. blanca validated his choices and that's that.]

I don't plan on giving up. Not now, not ever. [and the words sound brave, but there's also a kick of determination there.] Honestly? I don't know if I can really be surprised something like this happened.

I am glad someone trusted you enough to tell you what happened though. That's gotta be a good thing, right? We can find more answers if we're working together.
