I miss my children, even if two of them are not mine by blood, and my son hates me. I miss my brother, and the way he would always tease me, despite being the younger of the two of us.
[His expression grows distant, and he turns his verdant gaze towards the window, admiring the illuminated skyline.]
It is impossible to forget the love you have known, but there is also love here. I'm sure you've met others whom you care deeply for, but you would leave them behind?
