Richard and I were talking about how much we like and respect you, so this is kind of hard.’’ Max almost choked on his refried beans. ‘’Well, it’s just something has happened.’’ Richard asked the waitress for another round of Margaritas. ‘’What Kelly is trying to say is, we have developed really strong feelings for each other.
