"Otherwise, I have a cheque from the collection drive I ran at the office. I've encouraged people to go through their wardrobes and consider donating anything they don't want anymore, even if it's not suitable for the kids, you might be able to sell it for funds."
"That's not what I meant, Franklin."
"Yeah, I know. But I'm a lawyer, obfuscating is part of my livelihood. I can't stay long, I'm heading back to the office after this."
"Work will not help your grief, whereas solace may be found-"
"No offence, Sister Thomas, but you're not a therapist and your God doesn't bring me comfort, so no, I won't be coming to a Mass either.

Goodbye, Sister."
