"Do you ever wish you could just leave?" You pulled at the grass as you sat on the blanket. "All the time. But Arnie-" "Oh Gilbert." You laugh and he looks in confusion. "What? What is it?" "You're so selfless. Its admirable but jeez do you ever think about just yourself?"
He thought for a moment and shook his head. "I got a family. Mama is fat. Arnie is.." He trails off and changes the conversation to you. "What about you? You ever want to leave?" "Yes. And I do but I always come back."
You smile and look at him. His hair surrounded his face as he lays against the blanket. "There's a whole world outside of Endora, Gilbert. You just gotta be ready for it." "I'm not ready for it." He chuckles
You turn and lay on your stomach, taking in his features. "You should come with me. Next time I leave." "I don't know." "If it makes you feel better, Arnie can come too." "But mama-" "I think your sisters are doing a pretty good job right now."
He smirks, closing his eyes and thinking about it. "Okay." "Okay?" "I'll come with."
You hug him on the ground and kiss his cheek. "There's so much more I want to see. When we come back, you can bring souvenirs."
He leans up and kisses you, pulling you back down. "We can do that."
