Quote by Genell Dellin
““He was so accustomed to being in the middle of the action it still took him a second to realize that they were waiting for him, Chase Lomax, to get out of the way. He couldn’t help them? He’d hinder their rescue—a small woman and a skinny kid? Right. He would. Feeling unreasonably humiliated, he lifted his crutches and clunked his way out into the aisle.””
