"Hey." Rem's warm grin. You're up late.
"Hey." Joey could duplicate it. You're normally asleep by now.
"You okay?" You always look so tired.
" Fine. Kids all right?" You spend so much goddam time with them.
"Asleep for now. They're darlings, aren't they?" I wish I had a few of my own.
"Can't get enough of 'em." Bastard left you high and dry.
"Come join us sometime. We'd enjoy your company." You remind me so much of Alex...
"I wish I could, but..." I'm in love with you.
Was that a smirk? "Of course."
