As John was almost done packing, he looked up and saw that Sean was wearing one of his shirts which was too big for him.

John laughed. "Fine. You can wear that when I'm gone. In fact, you can sleep in it."

"Yay." Sean said heading back to the bed before hopping on it.

"I won't be gone that long. So you probably won't be missing me."

"Yes I will."

"Are you sure yer not just sick of me?"

"No!"

"Hmm.............okay. I'll believe you. Ye know, this would be the first time I leave you for this long."

"Will you come back home?"

"Course I will. What makes you think I won't?"

"I don't know. Your leaving."

"Not permanently. I'll be back in a month. Trust me, I'll never leave you."

"That's what Julian said."

"Then listen to it. He speaks truth. I won't leave you."

"I will miss you if you leave."

"I won't leave, son. Trust me. Listen, I spoke to Julian and he said he'll come here every day to keep you company. Will that be okay?"

"Yeah."

"Okay. Good. He'll be here everyday before and after school until he needs to go home for dinner."

"Why can't he have dinner here?"

John moved Sean closer to him. "Because yer muther doesn't like him for some odd reason. She knows he'll come here everyday so he'll be taking you out. Okay?"

"What will we do?"

John thought about that. "Maybe he'll take you to the park or go to see a motion picture or something. Ye'll have to ask him what he has planned for ye."

"Oh. Okay. Will he know?"

John laughed. "He should. He's the one taking you."

"Oh yeah. I forgot."

The next day, Paul had taken his jet and went to the airport to pick up John, who was having a hard time getting Sean to stop hugging him.

Once Paul saw what was going on, he himself got off the jet and approached them. 

"Sean, please let go!!"

Sean just laughed. "No!"

"I need to go!"

"No! You stay here!"
