He chuckled lightly. "You little rascal. I thought you were really..."
Hannah interrupted him, "This Christmas, Jarvis and I would like to invite you, your wife, and your baby for dinner."
Justin responded, "Sure. Christmas is not that far off. You should focus on recovering soon."
Hannah said, "The doctors say I'm recovering well. I'll have all my casts off by this afternoon, and with a bit more rest, I'll be able to walk."
Justin said, "This little Salazar girl has been a gutsy one since childhood. Glad you're okay, otherwise..."
Hannah asked, "Okay?"
To them, no matter how severe her injuries, as long as she was alive, everything was okay. But for Daniela, as long as someone cared about her, even a small scar was a big deal.

Justin said, "You silly kid, I meant you're okay now."
Hannah responded, "Yes, I believe there's a saying, good luck is due after a brush with death."
Justin said, "Definitely."
Hannah said, "Dr. Terrel, it's getting late, looks like it's going to rain soon. You better head home and spend some time with your wife and child. I need to rest."
Justin responded, "Okay, I'll leave now and will visit you when I have time."
Hannah said, "Have a safe journey home. I'm not in a position to see you off. Once I've recovered, I'll properly entertain your family."
Justin responded, "Alright."
