"Hey."
'Hey' is what he said. I loved him.
Now Neil...
I didn't love him anymore.
"What's up?" I asked.
"I need to tell you something. I can't keep it from you anymore."
"The thing is..."
"You're from, Mercury." Xander blurted out.
"You know I know that." I didn't get it. We talked this over.
"That's not it."
I said this slowly. "Xander, what do you mean?"
"You live 34 solar systems away from your real home."
"There's two?!?" I said in surprise.
"Yea."
