I will not rest here a second longer than I have to.” He turned to Ben. “But you know, there’s something to be said for never seeing you again.” “Well, I love you, too, Cisco.” “No, I mean this. I do not want this friendship to linger. I do not want it to wither and die. It will end here, as strong as it’s ever been. And this is a good thing. I don’t want to be around long enough to disappoint you.”
