Gilbert Johnson let out a faint, cold laugh, took a deep breath, and sighed, "Exactly what it sounds like."

Once he had made up his mind, there was no going back.

But Gilbert sighed, "I can't be the same towards you anymore."

After leaving those words behind, Gilbert clenched the doorknob, turned it gently, opened the door, and stepped out.
