I know what we... you said to him, she says only to Raisa. I was speaking Chinese, she says to Raisa alone.  And I won't hurt anyone else, I promise.  Just let me go back to my room and you guys can go help the others with whatever they're doing.  You don't want me around any way.  I don't need anything made better.  I'll be just fine on my own.  Nothing you can do anyway.</blockquote>
