YoCP Episode 19: Happy You Came

"So, how long are you here for anyway?" Kass asks as we're driving back to Garden City.

"Oh, I'm just here for the weekend. I have to go home tonight."

"But you'll come visit some other time, right?" Zeldine asks quickly.

"If you'd like that, yeah, sure!" Felix replies enthusiastically.

"Yeah, definitely!" I join in gleefully. "I'm happy you came."

"Oh, yeah, it really was an eye-opener," he states as if I woke him from a trance. But he's smiling, which is good, right?

"I get it if it's all a bit much. To us it's been our entire world, so we're acclimated to it, but-"

"No, it really is fine. I am happy that you let me see a part of your world, Le- ...Alea." God, he's a good kid.

"I'm happy you wanted to!" I really am. Don't get sentimental now. Man, I need a drink. Or a joint. Anything really. "So, uhh, when do you need to be at the station?"

"Oh, uhh, in a few hours," he answers, looking down, wondering what to say.

"So, uhh.. " we both start at the same time. "Oh, sorry, you were saying?"

"You just go first," he requests.
