Standing on the threshold of the apartment's front door, Nina hugged Angela for a long time, and then her eyes strayed towards Gael. She warned, "If you hurt her, I'll poke your eyeballs out with pretty grey irises and put them on a stick. Then I'll bring them to Times Square, and starting then, your eyeballs are the only balls that will drop every new year's eve."
"Nina!" Angela leaned back and stared wide-eyed at her best friend for threatening Gael with Giovanni and their guards around. The latter gave Nina warning glares.
However, Gael wasn't bothered by the threat. He gazed at Angela, who looked apologetic on behalf of her best friend, and without taking his eyes off her, he declared, "If I hurt her so bad that she wouldn't want me anymore, I'll take my eyes out myself. I'd rather not see the world without her in it."
