Everything Has Changed

*The Yard*

4 months later (28th January)

Joe is making dinner for him and for James. It's 8 pm and they are both hungry. He made them two sandwiches with cheese and ham. They went to the living room, they opened the TV and were watching together some movies that James picked. His favorite one was Cars and that's what they were watching now.

"Who's your favorite car?" Joe asked as he bit his sandwich

"McQueen uncle" he didn't give much attention as he was watching the movie

"And why do you like him?" he asked again wanted James's attention

"He's the fastest and the greatest car. Everybody is jealous of him because he is so kind and THE FASTEST CAR." little James said and he made his uncle giggle

After that they ate their sandwiches and continued watching the movie.
But in the middle of it James fell asleep. Joe looked at him once and smiled. He closed the TV, and took James on his arms. He carries him to his room upstairs. But by the time Joe lied the little one in his bed he woke up.

"uncle" he murmured

"Hey, it's time to sleep. In a few hours we fly for Nashville" he whispered

"Can you please sit here. I want to ask you something" James said with a curiosity in his eyes

"sure tell me kiddo. Are you afraid because you're leaving your old school?"

"No it's not that, I didn't have friends anyway" he whispered

"then what is it nephew" Joe said in a playful way

"It's just...mom and dad" Joe frozed to these words
"When will they come back from their trip? I miss them terribly... It's been 4 months" he said

"Ugh... I-... I don't know. All I know is that they are far away but they can see you right now" Joe sighed

"How uncle Joe?" the little one asked

"They are above us, somew-somewhere in the the sky above the clouds" he tried his best not to cry in front of James

"In the stars you mean?"

"Yes close to the stars. And they can see you from there and listen to you talking right now"

"But why can't I see them or listen to their voices." he wants his answers

"because they only have the ability to do it"

"and me? Why I don't have it?" he has so many questions

"because you're too young. But after many many years you'll be able too"

"and are they happy there?" he kills Joe

"Yes they are. They are happy. And now they want you to sleep so that you will have energy for tomorrow" Joe said

"okay but one last thing uncle"

"ugh tell me James"

"I miss my moms voice. She was singing like an angel every night to me. She was like an angel. Blonde hair, green eyes. And you're like an angel too. Soo...do you know any song?" Joe doesn't know how he still didn't cry

"hmm lets see...do you want me to sing a song that I wrote?" Joe smiled to James

"YES YES YES" James said with anticipation

"Okay it goes like...
I can see you standing honey, with his arms around your body, laughing but the joke is not funny at all. And it took 5 whole minutes To pack us up and leave me with it
Holdin' all this love out here in the hall
I think I've seen this film before
And I didn't like the endin
Youre not my homeland anymore
So what am I defending now.
You were my town now I'm in exile seeing you out. I think I've see this film before... " Joe sang with his deep voice and his British accent which made James sleep in less than a minute.
