Zoe: [Is Quinn with you at the hospital in the capital?]
Zoe: [How are your parents taking the news?]
Sam felt really stressed even as he replied to his friends' text, since this was a tragedy for anyone, just as he had no idea how to deal with Ryan.

Soon, it was late into the night, and Sam received a text from Quinn: [Are you asleep?]
[Nope.]
Quinn: [Can you sleep at the hospital? You should find a place to rest—you should be careful with your own health too. You'd have to step up if your parents get overwhelmed.]
Sam: [I know. It's late, though. Aren't you sleeping?]
Quinn paused for a moment. [I'm a little worried about you.]
Sam chuckled bitterly. [Why? I'm fine. Ryan, though…]
Quinn's fingers hovered over her phone, unsure of what to say.
Sam did not dwell on it either. [It's late. You should get some sleep.]
Quinn: [Yeah.]
Sam: [Watch my parents for me. I'm worried that they'd get overwhelmed.]
Quinn: [I'll stay with them. Don't worry.]
