Dalton had texted: “Of course I wasn’t there. If I had been, I probably would’ve died at the hands of those kidnappers.”

Jean replied: “Yeah, true. In that kind of situation, unless you go berserk like my brother did, there’s a good chance you wouldn’t make it out.”

Dalton responded: “Exactly. That’s why what your brother did back then was really impressive.”

Jean asked: “But if you weren’t there, how do you know so many details?”

Dalton said: “Your brother told me.”

Jean texted: “He told you that much? That’s not like him at all.”

Dalton explained: “I was the one who asked. At first, he just gave a really brief and reluctant summary of what happened. But I kept pressing him about it, and eventually, I got all the details out of him.”

Jean replied: “Wow!”

Dalton asked: “Why the wow all of a sudden?”

Jean responded: “Just think it’s kind of amazing. My brother actually let you get all that out of him…”

Dalton said: “He was easier to talk to back then than he is now.”

Jean replied: “Haha, that’s true.”
