The look on his face. He's not seeing what he used to see when he looked at me. He's never thought me perfect, and I never wanted him to. We've had little disagreements, little conflicts. But he's always trusted that I care about him, that I have his interests at heart, that I'm trying.
Not now.
It stops me in my tracks for a moment, and maybe it would've made a difference if I broke out of it faster. Maybe not. After a stunned silence I take a step towards him, hand outstretched, wanting very badly to pull the idiot into a hug. "You do belong here. You've always belonged here!" I say fiercely. "This is stupid, Joe, we can talk about this! If it's about Barizorg, or Gou, we can talk, we can work it out, we can work anything out!"
