Hold on to me, Kazi. Let me show you the stars. I watched a sparkling galaxy pass by the small window. From the lowest star on the horizon to the highest one in the heavens. Some were horses racing across the sky. Don’t look down. Keep your eyes on the stars. That one there is Thieves’ Gold. And over there is Eagle’s Nest. I watched them glitter, listening to Jase whisper the stories of the universe. Hold on to me, Kazi. I’ve got you. I won’t let go. “I know, Jase,” I answered. “I know.”
