Malcom smiled, took his things, and left the room. He looked at Ben, and coming closer, he asked, "Are you still upset?"

Malcom looked at the hammer before he took a deep breath, and then said, "Listen. I know it sounds insensitive, but I am telling you with all my heart, those people will not come back to life." 

Ben looked at him unhappily. He tried to explain himself, "I was just―"
