I don't beg I will not beg But I coet you to stay?"

If I thought her eyes were sad before, they go positively ed into darkness And she tells ive her "You can tell me you love me"

I jerk awake, the strains of "Let It Be" by the Beatles ironically filtering from my earbuds to my consciousness I rub my eyes, pull the ht Max sits in the plane seat next tolook in his eyes "Bad dream?"

"So like that," I mumble

"You okay?"

"Sure," I say as I wind the cord of the earbuds around my iPhone and stuff it in the seat pocket in front of me
