He wouldn't forget this. Somehow, someway he would find a way to repay Vincent for this kindness. He had not only defended him on the sidewalk, but saved his life today after he'd foolishly run into the flames at that gas station and protected one of his most valuable possessions in the process. Everything Kit had learned so far about their situation was written between those covers. It wasn't much, but it was all he had.]
Thank you.
