Yea, I'm alright... What about you?
I-I'm alright too, thank you. But I must say, it takes quite the strength to stand up to that bully like you did. You're very brave.

Thank you for accepting my offer. It means a lot to me. Let's stick together, okay? We'll face whatever comes our way, side by side.
