Right here. Walking.
Sorry, wrong question. Why are we here?
I thought you'd enjoy this.
Mmm, yes. It's beautiful. I love the woods. But just days ago, we were in the mountains crawling up the side of a cliff.
We were. You didn't like it.
No, I did not.
So here we are. You got a lot of exercise on that climb. Thought this might refresh you.
You said I needed the exercise. So why are we really here?
...
Don't give me the side-eye. You know.
I know many things. Which one are you referring to?
Oh good Lord.
Thank you.
Look at this place. Beautiful trees, a lovely path all fixed for us.
I like it, too.
So, is this the Valley of the Shadow of Death?
What! Of course not. Why would you think that?
I have some experience.
I see. Well, you're wrong. Again.
....
That got you, didn't it?
You know I was up at 2 a.m.?
I do. I was there.
You were very quiet.
Well, with you, I don't get to talk much.
Oh, you did not just say that!
I did. But anyway, you talked to me at two until around three. Then you fell asleep on me
At least you heard me. And I've been running around like...
A chicken with its head cut off. Yes. But I always hear you. If you'd just sit down a minute and listen.
I keep hearing that. There are so many things I want you to say.
What was that you said?
I want you to say so many things.
Just so you know, I hear. It isn't time for you to know some things. And some things I don't have to tell you. You're a smart girl. You can figure out quite a few things on your own. Some things you will never know.
Unt...
Not even then.
What do I do?
First, you go to your girls for dinner. That's far enough for your head to run. ...
What?
You might consider a nap. Before you go to the gym.
Gym? Oh shoot.
