"I'm dying as I'm sure Maria told you." "The flower tattoos have become infected and they're dying." "So I am as well." "This is life." "Maria gave me reason to live once you left." "The flowers defined me." "I want to talk to you about your homosexuality." "Maria said you would deny it." "I had the same struggle when I first fell in love with Maria and we began to have dirty, aching sex." "Of course." "She introduced me to myself." "To my vagina and to hers." "I need to forgive you before I die but I can't forgive someone who has not asked for forgiveness." "I have no time." "I need you to ask for forgiveness." "For what?" "For abandoning you to have anal sex with my homosexual lover, Eric." "No." "No, I'm sorry I cannot."
