Help them develop up okay without-her. I didn’t have to wave or shout. They didn’t seem to note something. I didn’t see him anywhere. I assume I type of expected to see his ghost, if that’s what I used to be, if he were useless. He smiled broadly. His eyes have been still sort. He smiled again, then turned his head in the route of my neighborhood, and we slipped over the earth. But then within the gloom, by the sweeping lights of passing cars, I saw he had prolonged his hand. Nobody noticed me standing there.<br>

<br> I saw my suburb, my avenue, my home. I mean to my home? “What do you mean? “What will I do? I hope that Jesus shall be there. There were storms sending telegraphs of purple lightning over Australia. The galaxy was one among 100, a thousand, each inexperienced or crimson or purple or orange or blue. One was being eaten away by a pleasure of black holes, like ravenous lions. Traffic slipped by slowly, like flotsam in a river, and that i felt unaccountably embarrassed that I had had some half in making all of those individuals late. We saved rising slowly, fifty ft, a hundred ft up. He touched my hand, and in a breath we had been racing up from the earth, above the clouds, far above the clouds, the earth was a curve cloaked in darkish blue, then an orb beneath our feet, and the moon another orb.

I had simply asked the driver how long he’d been with Uber, and he mentioned, like he’d answered the question a thousand times, “Six months.” Then I asked how many rides he’d given, and there was a sort of cool delight in his face and I was anticipating a big quantity, once i saw-or really felt-a presence to my right, a buzzing, looming mass.<br>

Someone started crying. A man went to the wall, positioned his palm against it, and vomited. The little man nodded, and i went to Jack, and put my arms round him.<br>

<br> I wanted to put my arms around him, to indicate him my face and tell him I was all right. Jack muttered a word or two into the phone, pressed a button, then put it on the desk.

We have been just standing there, hand in hand, like nothing had happened: except that gravity, and inertia, and air, and scorching and chilly, had forgotten us. The universe itself is in aching mid-life: just a few billion years and the stars will cool, all skies will darken, and all Nature will dissolve right into a chilly, changeless mud. I will miss her, Lord. There’s a part of me that’s comfortable, Lord. “Then why-” I began to ask the man, however didn’t know how to finish.
