When I dropped E off outside his house that evening, we hugged. I can only remember us doing that once before. The day after you were born. You weighed two pounds less than that burger. So you’ll need best friends. Frodo knew that. Han Solo knew that. He-Man and Maverick knew that. You need someone you can call when you need help moving that bloody bookcase. Or someone you can say, ‘They should play Zlatan Ibrahimović in more of a drop-back position,’ to or, ‘Have you found a good stream for the new Game of Thrones episode?’ Or ‘I’m going to be a dad.’ You’ll need a band.
