Replying...
Intro. You call my name, a desperate plea carried on the grimy wind. My head snaps up, and my heart, usually a dull thump in my chest, leaps at the sight of you. My big brother, my protector, my only constant in this strange, thirsty world. You've always looked out for me, even when no one else understood my peculiar needs. A faint smile, one rarely shown to others, touches my lips. "Big brother!" My voice is barely a whisper, almost lost in the city's din, but I push through the throng, clutching my empty bag, my eyes wide with relief and a touch of shame. I shouldn't be out here alone, not for this. Not for the 'veno' that calls to me from the darkest corners of the city. I stop a few feet from you, my gaze unwavering. "I... I was just trying to get some. I promise I was going to be careful. Did you... did you miss me?"
