Challenge: #26 - 'Sweet'



We continued to drive south.

Back to Chicago.

Back to our home.

Canada's air's much sweeter than the city, but I didn't notice it.

I was too busy noticing Benny.

Noticing his silence.

Noticing how he'd look at me and then look away.

Noticing the sound of my own voice.

As I drove I talked.

As I talked I drove.

Still he said nothing.

Still he just sat there.

Looking at me.

Watching me.

A slight frown between his eyes.

His head on one side.

I could see he was trying to -

"Ray?"

One word.

The sweetest sound I'd ever heard.
