All these things he's saying, he really believes them, he really believes his brother is here, bleeding on the ground of the alley, and she wonders for a second if she should call an ambulance for Nate.

"Nate," she says again, then lifts her hand, cupping either side of his face. "Look at me. Just look at me for a second, let me see your eyes."
