I got the phone
Me-hello?
Jude-Sophie, I couldn't tell you this in person...
me-what is it? How did you find out i was here?
Jude- it's on my radar.
me-radar?
Jude-yes. I'm a lobster fisherman &...the reason why I'm calling is because...I'm going overseas for the next 6 months.
I heard about these kinds of jobs. Where someone's gone for a long time in the middle of the ocean where there's a lot of storms that are deadly.
me-oh no.(panics) oh no! No don't go Jude! We have so many things to catch up on.
Jude- I know...I know. But it's my job. Sophie...I gotta go....I'll see you.

I felt so much better. I just needed somthing happy in my system.
Paul-well, the rides almost done.
We go ashore & George takes me home. As he walks me to the house, I saw a letter addressed to me...sent by Jude. I opened it & it said
Dear Sophie,
I know you must hate me for going into seas & telling you at the last minute, but I'll let you know something. I wrote a song...for you as you can see in this envelope. Tell Paul, George, Ringo & John to perform it for you since I can't. I mean everything I say in that song just keep that in mind.
Sincerely yours,
Jude
I got the song lyrics & read them aloud to George
Me- Close your eyes & I'll kiss you. Tomorrow I'll miss you. Remember I'll always be true. & then while I'm away, I'll write home everyday. & I'll send all my loving to you. I'll pretend that I'm kissing the lips I am missing & hope that my dreams will come true. & then while I'm away, I'll write home everyday. & I'll send all my loving to you. All my loving I will send to you all my loving...
I was amazed. I loved the song. Now I don't feel as abandoned. I looked at George
Me-Will you & the guys perform it? For me...please?
George- for you...yes.
me-(smiles a little) thank you
George- you know...I know this place where it's good to escape the troubles of reality. Paul & John even wrote a song about it.
me- where is it? Will you take me there?
George- sure. Let's go
