Slowly Gil put the weapon away. It was over. The policemen had cuffed Amy Handler and had her led to the policecar, her husband was standing in front of his house, helpless staring after the car, and Gil was running back to the house. His mind was set solely on Nicky now. He needed to make sure that he was okay.

He found him still standing in the living room, unmoving, tears streaming down his face. Without saying a word he enfolded the younger man in an embrace. And finally Nicky broke together. Crying he clung to him, while Gil whispered over and over again, "It's okay, Nicky. It's over."
