“I can’t see Jupiter,” Joseph said. “The moon’s too bright. And I don’t know where she is.”
“It’s where it always is,” I said.
“No, it isn’t.”

“I’m going to find her,” he said. “I’m not going to stay alone. ”
“You’re not alone.”

“I’m alone,” he said.
“You’ve got me,” I said.
He laughed, but not a happy laugh. “Jackie, I’m a whole lifetime ahead of you.”
