Companionship

"Where did you come from?"

"Away."

"Away?"

"I'd quite like to go back there too. Want to come?"

"But you- I..."

"You don't have to. I can just go."

"No!"

"So you're coming?"

"I... don't know."

"It'll be fun."

"How do you know?"

"Um..."

"You don't."

"No."

"Then stay here. With me."

"Don't you want to find out?"

"What if it's bad?"

"Then it's bad. So what? There are wonders to be found."

"It's dangerous."

"But we'll be together."

"We could be together here."

"No."

"What? But you-"

"I'm going. Come with. Let's explore the wonders of the universe. Together."

"We always were one,"

"Why stop now?"
