The boy was content to stay curled against Lennon for a time, though internally he struggled with a feeling he had not experienced before. It was subtle but nagging, persistent; wasn't there something more to say? It felt important, like there was something Lennon should know before Ali lost the chance to tell him. He would have spat the words out then and there if he only knew what they were.
But then his mind went to Korei, and instantly he decided that must have been it. Subconsciously he knew-- it was not at all what his heart had been telling him to express. But now that he remembered the tiny girl, it felt urgent.
